Nim implementation of Snappy compression algorithm
|
|
|
|
Currently, this implementation only support block compression and
|
|
no stream compression support at all.
|
|
|
|
## API
|
|
* proc encode*(src: openArray[byte]): seq[byte]
|
|
* proc decode*(src: openArray[byte]): seq[byte]
|
|
* template compress --- an alias to encode
|
|
* template uncompress --- an alias to decode
|
|
|
|
## Examples
|
|
```Nim
|
|
import snappy
|
|
var source = readFile("readme.md")
|
|
var encoded = snappy.encode(toOpenArrayByte(source, 0, source.len-1))
|
|
var decoded = snappy.decode(encoded)
|
|
assert equalMem(decoded[0].addr, source[0].addr, source.len)
|
|
```
|
|

|
## Installation via nimble
