// Package sigil provides the Sigil composable transform framework for reversible
// and irreversible data transformations.
//
// Sigils are the core abstraction -- each sigil implements a specific transformation
// (encoding, compression, hashing) with a uniform interface. Sigils can be chained
// together to create transformation pipelines via Transmute and Untransmute.
//
// Example usage:
//
// hexSigil, _ := sigil.NewSigil("hex")
// base64Sigil, _ := sigil.NewSigil("base64")
// encoded, _ := sigil.Transmute(data, []sigil.Sigil{hexSigil, base64Sigil})
// decoded, _ := sigil.Untransmute(encoded, []sigil.Sigil{hexSigil, base64Sigil})
package sigil
// Sigil defines the interface for a composable data transformer.
//
// A Sigil represents a single transformation unit that can be applied to byte data.
// Sigils may be reversible (encoding, compression) or irreversible (hashing).
//
// For reversible sigils: Out(In(x)) == x for all valid x
// For irreversible sigils: Out returns the input unchanged
// For symmetric sigils: In(x) == Out(x)
//
// Implementations must handle nil input by returning nil without error,
// and empty input by returning an empty slice without error.
type Sigil interface {
// In applies the forward transformation to the data.
// For encoding sigils, this encodes the data.
// For compression sigils, this compresses the data.
// For hash sigils, this computes the digest.
In(data []byte) ([]byte, error)
// Out applies the reverse transformation to the data.
// For reversible sigils, this recovers the original data.
// For irreversible sigils (e.g., hashing), this returns the input unchanged.
Out(data []byte) ([]byte, error)
}
// Transmute applies a series of sigils to data in forward sequence.
//
// Each sigil's In method is called in order, with the output of one sigil
// becoming the input of the next. If any sigil returns an error, Transmute
// stops immediately and returns nil with that error.
func Transmute(data []byte, sigils []Sigil) ([]byte, error) {
var err error
for _, s := range sigils {
data, err = s.In(data)
if err != nil {
return nil, err
}
}
return data, nil
}
// Untransmute applies a series of sigils to data in reverse sequence.
//
// Each sigil's Out method is called in reverse order, unwinding a previous
// Transmute operation. If any sigil returns an error, Untransmute stops
// immediately and returns nil with that error.
func Untransmute(data []byte, sigils []Sigil) ([]byte, error) {
var err error
for i := len(sigils) - 1; i >= 0; i-- {
data, err = sigils[i].Out(data)
if err != nil {
return nil, err
}
}
return data, nil
