This repository is a Ruby gem to use the amazing Boxcars Rust crates in Ruby.
Thanks a lot to nickbabcock for his work !
This gem only implements one of the options of the Boxcars projet: it skips the network data to only give you the header. More information in the Boxcars README.md variations section
If you want to use this gem and you need more bindings that the one I have implement for my usage, feel free to create issues on this repository !
require "boxcars"
json_formatted_data = Boxcars.run("/path/to/replay.replay")
# =>
# {"header_size"=>8398,
# ...To create this gem from the Rust code, I followed this tutorial (thank you Richard Patching) and merged his "helloworld" from Rust repository with Boxcars projects.
If you modify the Rust code (the src/lib.rs for exemple), all you have to do after is to run rake and then you can interact with your gem in irb or run bin/console (start a irb with the gem already imported).
