//! The `coap-handler` crate defines an interface between a [CoAP] server (that listens for
//! requests on the network and parses the messages) and request handlers (that process the
//! requests and creates responses from them).
//!
//! The interface is generic over message formats by using the [coap-message] crate, which allows
//! the handler to construct the response right into the send buffer prepared by the server
//! implementation. By separating the request processing and the response phase, a server can be
//! implemented even on network stacks that have only a single network buffer.
//!
//!  Convenience, example and reference implementations are available in the [coap-handler-implementations] crate.
//!

//! [coap-message]: https://crates.io/crates/coap-message
//! [coap-handler-implementations]: https://crates.io/crates/coap-handler-implementations
//!
//! Known shortcomings of the current interface are:
//!
//! * No consideration for asynchronous processing.
//! * Handler mutability is a bit iffy -- there's no way yet for the server to express any promise
//!   about only running one handler at a time, thus handlers often hold shared references to a
//!   [`RefCell`] that is [`borrow_mut()`]'d (if no other code that can be concurrent with the CoAP
//!   server can have access to the `T`), or [`try_borrow_mut()`]'d (and errs back with a 5.03
//!   Max-Age:0 response).
//!
//!   Alternatives (where multiple handlers could be built based on a single mutable reference to
//!   their data) are being explored.
//! * Multiple responses (as, for example, in observations) are not supported.

//!
//! The main item of this crate is the [Handler] trait. The [Reporting] trait can be implemented in
//! addition to [Handler] to ease inclusion of the rendered resource in discovery, eg. through
//! `/.well-known/core` as implemented in [coap-handler-implementations].
