Apache DataFusion Protobuf Common Serialization / Deserialization

Apache DataFusion is an extensible query execution framework, written in Rust, that uses Apache Arrow as its in-memory format.

This crate contains code to convert DataFusion primitive types to and from bytes using Protocol Buffers, which can be useful for sending data over the network.

See API Docs for details and examples.

Most projects should use the datafusion-proto crate directly, which re-exports this module. If you are already using the datafusion-proto crate, there is no reason to use this crate directly in your project as well.
