SNMP data type handling and conversion.

Handles encoding and decoding of SNMP values, including automatic type inference and explicit type specification.

Summary

Functions

decode_value(value)

Decodes an SNMP value to an Elixir term.

encode_value(value, opts \\ [])

Encodes a value for SNMP with optional type specification.

infer_type(value)

Automatically infers the SNMP type from an Elixir value.

Functions

decode_value(value)

Decodes an SNMP value to an Elixir term.

Examples

iex> SnmpKit.SnmpMgr.Types.decode_value({:string, "Hello"})
"Hello"

iex> SnmpKit.SnmpMgr.Types.decode_value({:integer, 42})
42

encode_value(value, opts \\ [])

Encodes a value for SNMP with optional type specification.

Parameters

value - The value to encode
opts - Options including :type for explicit type specification

Examples

iex> SnmpKit.SnmpMgr.Types.encode_value("Hello World")
{:ok, {:string, "Hello World"}}

iex> SnmpKit.SnmpMgr.Types.encode_value(42)
{:ok, {:integer, 42}}

iex> SnmpKit.SnmpMgr.Types.encode_value("192.168.1.1", type: :ipAddress)
{:ok, {:ipAddress, {192, 168, 1, 1}}}

infer_type(value)

Automatically infers the SNMP type from an Elixir value.

Examples

iex> SnmpKit.SnmpMgr.Types.infer_type("hello")
:string

iex> SnmpKit.SnmpMgr.Types.infer_type(42)
:integer

iex> SnmpKit.SnmpMgr.Types.infer_type("192.168.1.1")
:string  # Would need explicit :ipAddress type
