Crate hex

Encoding and decoding hex strings.

For most cases, you can simply use the decode(), encode() and encode_upper() functions. If you need a bit more control, use the traits ToHex and FromHex instead.

Example

extern crate hex;

fn main() {
    let hex_string = hex::encode("Hello world!");
    println!("{}", hex_string); // Prints '48656c6c6f20776f726c6421'
}
