(** Non-blocking streaming Unicode codec.

  [Uutf] is a non-blocking streaming codec to {{:#decode}decode} and
  {{:#encode}encode} the {{:http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3629.txt}
  UTF-8}, {{:http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2781.txt} UTF-16}, UTF-16LE
  and UTF-16BE encoding schemes. It can efficiently work character by
  character without blocking on IO. Decoders perform
  character position tracking and support {{!nln}newline normalization}.

  Functions are also provided to {{!String} fold over} the
  characters of UTF encoded OCaml string values and to
  {{!Buffer}directly encode} characters in OCaml {!Buffer.t}
  values.

  See {{:#examples}examples} of use.

type decoder
(** The type for decoders. *)

val decoder : ?nln:[< nln] -> ?encoding:[< decoder_encoding] -> [< src] ->
  decoder
(** [decoder nln encoding src] is a decoder that inputs from [src].

    {b Byte order mark.}
    {{:http://unicode.org/glossary/#byte_order_mark}Byte order mark}
    (BOM) constraints are application dependent and prone to
    misunderstandings (see the
    {{:http://www.unicode.org/faq/utf_bom.html#BOM}FAQ}). Hence,
    [Uutf] decoders have a simple rule: an {e initial BOM is always
    removed from the input and not counted in character position
    tracking}. The function {!decoder_removed_bom} does however return
    [true] if a BOM was removed so that all the information can be
    recovered if needed.

    For UTF-16BE and UTF-16LE the above rule is a violation of
    conformance D96 and D97 of the standard. [Uutf] favors the idea
    that if there's a BOM, decoding with [`UTF_16] or the [`UTF_16XX]
    corresponding to the BOM should decode the same character sequence
    (this is not the case if you stick to the standard). The client
    can however regain conformance by consulting the result of
    {!decoder_removed_bom} and take appropriate action.

    {b Encoding.} [encoding] specifies the decoded encoding
    scheme. If [`UTF_16] is used the endianness is determined
    according to the standard: from a
    {{:http://unicode.org/glossary/#byte_order_mark}BOM}
    if there is one, [`UTF_16BE] otherwise.

    If [encoding] is unspecified it is guessed. The result of a guess
    can only be [`UTF_8], [`UTF_16BE] or [`UTF_16LE]. The heuristic
    looks at the first three bytes of input (or less if impossible)
    and takes the {e first} matching byte pattern in the table below.
{[
xx = any byte
.. = any byte or no byte (input too small)
pp = positive byte
uu = valid UTF-8 first byte

Bytes    | Guess     | Rationale
---------+-----------+-----------------------------------------------
EF BB BF | `UTF_8    | UTF-8 BOM
FE FF .. | `UTF_16BE | UTF-16BE BOM
FF FE .. | `UTF_16LE | UTF-16LE BOM
00 pp .. | `UTF_16BE | ASCII UTF-16BE and U+0000 is often forbidden
pp 00 .. | `UTF_16LE | ASCII UTF-16LE and U+0000 is often forbidden
uu .. .. | `UTF_8    | ASCII UTF-8 or valid UTF-8 first byte.
xx xx .. | `UTF_16BE | Not UTF-8 => UTF-16, no BOM => UTF-16BE
.. .. .. | `UTF_8    | Single malformed UTF-8 byte or no input.
]}
    This heuristic is compatible both with BOM based
    recognitition and
    {{:http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4627#section-3}JSON-like encoding
    recognition} that relies on ASCII being present at the beginning
    of the stream. Also, {!decoder_removed_bom} will tell the client
    if the guess was BOM based.

    {b Newline normalization.} If [nln] is specified, the given
    newline normalization is performed, see {!nln}. Otherwise
    all newlines are returned as found in the input.

    {b Character position.} The line number, column number, byte count
    and character count of the last decoded character (including
    [`Malformed] ones) are respectively returned by {!decoder_line},
    {!decoder_col}, {!decoder_byte_count} and {!decoder_count}. Before
    the first call to {!decode} the line number is [1] and the column
    is [0].  Each {!decode} returning [`Uchar] or [`Malformed]
    increments the column until a newline.  On a newline, the line
    number is incremented and the column set to zero. For example the
    line is [2] and column [0] after the first newline was
    decoded. This can be understood as if {!decode} was moving an
    insertion point to the right in the data.  A {e newline} is
    anything normalized by [`Readline], see {!nln}.

    [Uutf] assumes that each Unicode scalar value has a column width
    of 1. The same assumption may not be made by the display program
    (e.g. for [emacs]' compilation mode you need to set
    [compilation-error-screen-columns] to [nil]). The problem is in
    general difficult to solve without interaction or convention with the
    display program's rendering engine. Depending on the context better column
    increments can be implemented by using {!Uucp.Break.tty_width_hint} or
    {{:http://unicode.org/reports/tr29/#Grapheme_Cluster_Boundaries}
    grapheme cluster boundaries} (see {!Uuseg}). *)

val decode : decoder ->
  [ `Await | `Uchar of Uchar.t | `End | `Malformed of string]
(** [decode d] is:
    {ul
    {- [`Await] if [d] has a [`Manual] input source and awaits
       for more input. The client must use {!Manual.src} to provide it.}
    {- [`Uchar u] if a Unicode scalar value [u] was decoded.}
    {- [`End] if the end of input was reached.}
    {- [`Malformed bytes] if the [bytes] sequence is malformed according to
       the decoded encoding scheme. If you are interested in a best-effort
       decoding you can still continue to decode after an error until the
       decoder synchronizes again on valid bytes. It may however be a good
       idea to signal the malformed characters by adding an {!u_rep}
       character to the parsed data, see the {{:#examples}examples}.}}

    {2:readlines Read lines}

    The value of [lines src] is the list of lines in [src] as UTF-8
    encoded OCaml strings. Line breaks are determined according to the
    recommendation R4 for a [readline] function in section 5.8 of
    Unicode 9.0.0. If a decoding error occurs we silently replace the
    malformed sequence by the replacement character {!u_rep} and continue.
{[let lines ?encoding (src : [`Channel of in_channel | `String of string]) =
  let rec loop d buf acc = match Uutf.decode d with
  | `Uchar u ->
      begin match Uchar.to_int u with
      | 0x000A ->
          let line = Buffer.contents buf in
          Buffer.clear buf; loop d buf (line :: acc)
      | _ ->
          Uutf.Buffer.add_utf_8 buf u; loop d buf acc
      end

  in

  loop (Uutf.decoder ~nln ?encoding src) (Buffer.create 512) []
]}
  Using the [`Manual] interface, [lines_fd] does the same but on a Unix file
  descriptor.
{[let lines_fd ?encoding (fd : Unix.file_descr) =

    {2:recode Recode}

    The result of [recode src out_encoding dst] has the characters of
    [src] written on [dst] with encoding [out_encoding].  If a
    decoding error occurs we silently replace the malformed sequence
    by the replacement character {!u_rep} and continue.  Note that we
    don't add an initial
    {{:http://unicode.org/glossary/#byte_order_mark}BOM} to [dst],
    recoding will thus loose the initial BOM [src] may have. Whether
    this is a problem or not depends on the context.
{[let recode ?nln ?encoding out_encoding
    (src : [`Channel of in_channel | `String of string])
    (dst : [`Channel of out_channel | `Buffer of Buffer.t])
