Base converter to/from single payload/value with a known encoding for use in CompositePayloadConverter.

Method	`from_payload`	Decode a single payload to a Python value or raise exception.
Method	`to_payload`	Encode a single value to a payload or None.
Property	`encoding`	Encoding for the payload this converter works with.

@abstractmethod
def from_payload(self, payload: temporalio.api.common.v1.Payload, type_hint: Optional[Type] = None) -> Any: (source) ¶

overridden in temporalio.converter.BinaryNullPayloadConverter, temporalio.converter.BinaryPlainPayloadConverter, temporalio.converter.BinaryProtoPayloadConverter, temporalio.converter.JSONPlainPayloadConverter, temporalio.converter.JSONProtoPayloadConverter

Decode a single payload to a Python value or raise exception.

Parameters
payload:`temporalio.api.common.v1.Payload`	Payload to convert to Python value.
type_hint:`Optional[Type]`	Type that is expected if any. This may not have a type if there are no annotations on the target.
Returns
`Any`	The decoded value from the payload. Since the encoding is checked by the caller, this should raise an exception if the payload cannot be converted.
Raises
`RuntimeError`	General error during decoding.

@abstractmethod
def to_payload(self, value: Any) -> Optional[temporalio.api.common.v1.Payload]: (source) ¶

Encode a single value to a payload or None.

Parameters
value:`Any`	Value to be converted.
Returns
`Optional[temporalio.api.common.v1.Payload]`	Payload of the value or None if unable to convert.
Raises
`TypeError`	Value is not the expected type.
`ValueError`	Value is of the expected type but otherwise incorrect.
`RuntimeError`	General error during encoding.

@property
@abstractmethod
encoding: str = (source) ¶
