Usage

Basics

    local mp = require "resty.msgpack"
    
    local my_data = {this = {"is",4,"test"}}
    local encoded = mp.pack(my_data)
    local decoded = mp.unpack(encoded)

Concatenating encoded data

    local mp = require "resty.msgpack"
    
    local my_data_1 = 42
    local my_data_2 = "foo"
    local encoded = mp.pack(my_data_1) .. mp.pack(my_data_2)
    
    for _,v in mp.unpacker(encoded) do
        ngx.say("unpack is ", type(v), " : ", v)
    end
