* Provides a **fluent interface builder** for CBOR messages
* Supports semantic tags
* Supports 64-bit integer values
* Passes all [CPD](http://c-rack.github.io/cbor-java/cpd.html), [PMD](http://c-rack.github.io/cbor-java/pmd.html) and [FindBugs](http://c-rack.github.io/cbor-java/findbugs.html) tests

## Documentation

## Maven Dependency

Add this to the dependencies section of your pom.xml file:

```xml
<dependency>
    <groupId>co.nstant.in</groupId>
    <artifactId>cbor</artifactId>
    <version>0.8</version>
</dependency>
```

## Usage

### Encoding Example

```java
ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
new CborEncoder(baos).encode(new CborBuilder()
    .add("text")                // add string
    .add(1234)                  // add integer
    .add(new byte[] { 0x10 })   // add byte array
    .addArray()                 // add array
        .add(1)
        .add("text")
        .end()
    .build());
byte[] encodedBytes = baos.toByteArray();
```

### Decoding Example

```java
ByteArrayInputStream bais = new ByteArrayInputStream(encodedBytes);
List<DataItem> dataItems = new CborDecoder(bais).decode();
for(DataItem dataItem : dataItems) {
    // process data item
}
```

### Streaming Decoding Example

```java
ByteArrayInputStream bais = new ByteArrayInputStream(encodedBytes);
new CborDecoder(bais).decode(new DataItemListener() {

    @Override
    public void onDataItem(DataItem dataItem) {
        // process data item
    }

});
```
