= Packed \Data
Certain Ruby core methods deal with packing and unpacking data:
- \Method Array#pack:
Formats each element in array +self+ into a binary string;
returns that string.
- \Method String#unpack:
Extracts data from string +self+,
forming objects that become the elements of a new array;
returns that array.
- \Method String#unpack1:
Does the same, but unpacks and returns only the first extracted object.
Each of these methods accepts a string +template+,
consisting of zero or more _directive_ characters,
each followed by zero or more _modifier_ characters.
Examples (directive <tt>'C'</tt> specifies 'unsigned character'):
[65].pack('C') # => "A" # One element, one directive.
[65, 66].pack('CC') # => "AB" # Two elements, two directives.
[65, 66].pack('C') # => "A" # Extra element is ignored.
[65].pack('') # => "" # No directives.
[65].pack('CC') # Extra directive raises ArgumentError.
'A'.unpack('C') # => [65] # One character, one directive.
'AB'.unpack('CC') # => [65, 66] # Two characters, two directives.
'AB'.unpack('C') # => [65] # Extra character is ignored.
'A'.unpack('CC') # => [65, nil] # Extra directive generates nil.
'AB'.unpack('') # => [] # No directives.
The string +template+ may contain any mixture of valid directives
(directive <tt>'c'</tt> specifies 'signed character'):
[65, -1].pack('cC') # => "A\xFF"
"A\xFF".unpack('cC') # => [65, 255]
The string +template+ may contain whitespace (which is ignored)
and comments, each of which begins with character <tt>'#'</tt>
and continues up to and including the next following newline:
[0,1].pack(" C #foo \n C ") # => "\x00\x01"
"\0\1".unpack(" C #foo \n C ") # => [0, 1]
Any directive may be followed by either of these modifiers:
- <tt>'*'</tt> - The directive is to be applied as many times as needed:
[65, 66].pack('C*') # => "AB"
'AB'.unpack('C*') # => [65, 66]
- Integer +count+ - The directive is to be applied +count+ times:
[65, 66].pack('C2') # => "AB"
[65, 66].pack('C3') # Raises ArgumentError.
'AB'.unpack('C2') # => [65, 66]
'AB'.unpack('C3') # => [65, 66, nil]
Note: Directives in <tt>%w[A a Z m]</tt> use +count+ differently;
see {String Directives}[rdoc-ref:packed_data.rdoc@String+Directives].
If elements don't fit the provided directive, only least significant bits are encoded:
[257].pack("C").unpack("C") # => [1]
== Packing \Method
\Method Array#pack accepts optional keyword argument
+buffer+ that specifies the target string (instead of a new string):
[65, 66].pack('C*', buffer: 'foo') # => "fooAB"
The method can accept a block:
# Packed string is passed to the block.
[65, 66].pack('C*') {|s| p s } # => "AB"
== Unpacking Methods
Methods String#unpack and String#unpack1 each accept
an optional keyword argument +offset+ that specifies an offset
into the string:
'ABC'.unpack('C*', offset: 1) # => [66, 67]
'ABC'.unpack1('C*', offset: 1) # => 66
Both methods can accept a block:
# Each unpacked object is passed to the block.
ret = []
"ABCD".unpack("C*") {|c| ret << c }
ret # => [65, 66, 67, 68]
# The single unpacked object is passed to the block.
'AB'.unpack1('C*') {|ele| p ele } # => 65
== \Integer Directives
Each integer directive specifies the packing or unpacking
for one element in the input or output array.

for packing, null fill if necessary:

[1, 2].pack("C@5C") # => "\x01\x00\x00\x00\x00\x02"
"\x01\x00\x00\x02".unpack("C@3C") # => [1, 2]
"\x00".unpack("@1C") # => [nil]
- <tt>'X'</tt> - Back up a byte:

[0, 1, 2].pack("CCX2C") # => "\x02"
"\x00\x02".unpack("CCXC") # => [0, 2, 2]
