        .. description
        
        The *bpack* Python package provides tools to describe and encode/decode
        binary data.
        
        Binary data are assumed to be organized in *records*, each composed by a
        sequence of fields. Fields are characterized by a known size, offset
        (w.r.t. the beginning of the record) and datatype.
        
        The package provides classes and functions that can be used to:
        
        * describe binary data structures in a declarative way (structures can
          be specified up to the bit level)
        * automatically generate encoders/decoders for a specified data descriptor
        
        Encoders/decoders (*backends*) rely on well known Python packages like:
        
        * |struct| (form the standard library)
        * bitstruct_ (optional)
        * numpy_ (optional)
        * bitarray_ (optional) - partial implementation
