[Feature Request] Have pluggable serialization/deserialization #133

Open DianeOfTheMoon opened 3 years ago

DianeOfTheMoon commented 3 years ago

Having this would help me quite a bit so that I could test all aspects of my protocol by serializing json (or text) into a format before sending to the server and being able to deserialize messages from the server.

Thanks for raising the FR @DianeOfTheMoon, I assume you need this functionality for WebSocket/SocketIO, right?

DianeOfTheMoon commented 3 years ago

Correct. That would allow me to test, say, an api that uses protobuf for serialization.

Nishchit14 commented 3 years ago

Awesome... we're building a scripting feature for ws/socketio. I think this use-case would get covered with that. I'll share the specs soon.

And If you're using protobuf in HTTP API then it's available in the latest Firecamp Canary v2.0, It's not publicly available, If you wanna try it then just ask in chatbox from the app, I'll instantly provide you the app.

Well, I had protobuf as an example...I'm actually working in flatbuffers.
