Description: |Build Status| |PyPI| |Docs|
        
        Bran provides transcoders for `ASN.1 <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abstract_Syntax_Notation_One>`__
        serialization and deserialization, and `DER <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X.690#DER_encoding>`__-encoding.
        
        The purpose is to provide a serialization format for native Python types,
        such as nested dicts, whose serialization is unambiguous and stable, that
        is two values with the same contents serialize to the same byte string.
        
        That makes it possible to create hashes and MACs to verify message
        integrity.
        
        Usage
        =====
        
        Code
        ----
        
        You just encode some values. In most cases, you'll want to use the ``DERTranscoder``
        class.
        
        .. code:: python
        
            test = { 'some': { 'nested': 42, 'value': (0, 1, False) } }
        
            from bran import DERTranscoder
            transcoder = DERTranscoder()
        
            encoded = transcoder.encode(test)
            decoded = transcoder.decode(encoded)
        
            assert decoded == test
        
        In order for bran to be this simple to use, some assumptions are made. The
        one with the most impact is that it treats *any* ``collections.Mapping`` will
        be encoded to the same byte representation, which means when decoded, it will
        become a Python ``dict``. Similar assumptions are made for ``collections.Set``
        and ``collections.Sequence``.
        
        Setup
        -----
        
        Use
        `virtualenv <http://docs.python-guide.org/en/latest/dev/virtualenvs/>`__
        to create a virtual environment and change to it or not, as you see fit.
        
        Then install the requirements:
        
        .. code:: bash
        
            $ pip install -r requirements.txt
        
        Documentation
        -------------
        
        After setup, run the following to generate documentation:
        
        .. code:: bash
        
            $ python setup.py build_sphinx
        
        Development
        -----------
        
        Test Execution
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        Run the whole test suite:
        
        .. code:: bash
        
            $ python setup.py test
        
        Run a single test scenario:
        
        .. code:: bash
        
            $ pytest tests/test_asn1transcoder.py::test_none
        
        Run tests on multiple Python versions:
        
        .. code:: bash
        
            $ tox
        
        Run tests on Python 2.7:
        
        .. code:: bash
        
            $ tox -e py27
        
        A simple test coverage report is automatically generated.
