| Things to be done |
| ================= |
| |
| Big things to tackle, anyone interested is welcome to fork pyasn1, work on |
| it and come up with a PR! |
| |
| New codecs |
| ---------- |
| |
| * PER |
| * OER |
| * XER |
| * LWER |
| * JSON (alinged with existing experimental schemas) |
| |
| Lazy codecs |
| ----------- |
| |
| Implement a thin layer over base types to cache pieces |
| of substrate being decoded till the very moment of ASN.1 |
| object access in the parse tree. |
| |
| Codecs generator interface |
| -------------------------- |
| |
| For indefinite length or chunked encoding mode, make codecs |
| iterable producing/consuming substrate/objects. |
| |
| ASN.1 schema compiler |
| --------------------- |
| |
| Ideally, the compiler should parse modern schema files and be |
| designed to emit code for arbitrary languages (including SQL). |
| |
| Base types |
| ---------- |
| |
| Implement X.680 constructs, including information schema. |
| |
| Examples |
| -------- |
| |
| Add examples, including advanced/obscure use cases. |
| |
| Documentation |
| ------------- |
| |
| Document more API, add notes and example snippets. |
| |
| More fresh modules |
| ------------------ |
| |
| Compile and ship more Pythonized ASN.1 modules for |
| various ASN.1-based protocols (e.g. Kerberos etc). |
| Refresh outdated modules in pyasn1-packages. |
| |
| Minor, housekeeping things |
| -------------------------- |
| |
| * more PEP8'ing at places |
| * consider simplifying repr(), otherwise it tend to be too hard to grasp |
| * Specialize ASN.1 character and useful types |
| |
| * ber.decoder: |
| |
| * suspend codec on underrun error ? |
| * present subtypes ? |
| * component presence check wont work at innertypeconst |
| * type vs value, defaultValue |
| |
| * ber.encoder: |
| |
| * Asn1Item.clone() / shallowcopy issue |
| * large length encoder? |
| * lookup type by tag first to allow custom codecs for non-base types |
| |
| * type.useful: |
| |
| * may need to implement prettyIn/Out |
| |
| * type.char: |
| |
| * may need to implement constraints |
| |
| * type.namedtypes |
| |
| * type vs tagset name convention |
| |
| * how untagged TagSet should be initialized? |
| |
| * type and codecs for Real needs refactoring |
