Provide examples

[kirakira]

Could you give an example of writing records to a file and reading the data back? I'm reading the code but the API seems fairly complex..

There seem to be an example of reading a file in Riegeli format at Benchmarks::ReadRiegeli.

Thanks, I was hoping the examples to be more discoverable, but this is good enough to me.

RecordWriter and RecordReader would be the class to use.

And the python API has a minimum example:

+1. The templated headers are tricky to read, and many of the tests have indirection that makes common use cases difficult to figure out. e.g. How do you read a CSV file?
