Any plans to support custom types? #61

Open isoos opened 1 month ago

I think CBOR specification allows the definition of custom types. Do you have any plan to support them?

shamblett commented 1 month ago

This is not part of RFC 8949 that I can see, it seems to be documented here as part of the CBOR2 Python library so at the moment no, there is no plan to support this functionality.

Right, makes sense. So, if I have Uint16List or similar structure, the recommendation is to convert it to Uint8List and then CborBytes, right?

Not sure you need to convert it to Uint8List, CborBytes takes a List so you should be OK with UInt16List as is.
