This library provides encoding and decoding for the Concise Binary Object Representation (CBOR) (RFC 7049) serialization format. It is implemented in pure python with an optional C backend and is compatible with versions 2.7 through to 3.8. On cPython>=3.3 cbor2 can use a built in C module for performance similar to how pickle wraps the _pickle C module in the Python Standard Library.
