Crates.io Version Released API docs

Exposes LimitReader which is a limit reader, that protects against zip-bombs and other nefarious activities that limits the number of bytes read from an underlying reader.

This crate is heavily inspired by Jon Gjengset’s “Crust of Rust” episode on the inner workings of git on YouTube and mitigrating Zip-bombs.

It has been said, the name is a bit boisterous, but at least it sets high ambitions for this wee crate.

API usage

Refer to the docs for further examples.

Upcoming enhancements (in no particular order)

  • Gzip decompression.
  • no_std support (?); This needs planning via an issue on Github.
  • TBD: If you have any requests, please open an issue!
