21//! This trait allows of extended user-level decoding that can apply to message-data before a
22//! message-id is calculated.
23//!
24//! This is primarily designed to allow applications to implement their own custom compression
25//! algorithms that can be topic-specific. Once the raw data is transformed the message-id is then
26//! calculated, allowing for applications to employ message-id functions post compression.

30/// A general trait of transforming a [`RawMessage`] into a [`Message`]. The
31///
32/// [`RawMessage`] is obtained from the wire and the [`Message`] is used to
33/// calculate the [`crate::MessageId`] of the message and is what is sent to the application.
34///
35/// The inbound/outbound transforms must be inverses. Applying the inbound transform and then the
36/// outbound transform MUST leave the underlying data un-modified.
37///
38/// By default, this is the identity transform for all fields in [`Message`].
