Blosc

Rust bindings for the C-Blosc compression library.

The blosc crate provides Rusty bindings for C-Blosc, a compression library for binary data, especially numeric arrays.

[!WARNING] This crate is deprecated. The author no longer uses it in his own projects, and new alternatives have arisen. If you use this crate, then I suggest you either:

• Volunteer to take over maintainership from me.
• Switch to the byteshuffle crate, if all you care about is the shuffle filter.
• Switch to the blosc-rs crate.
• Switch to the blosc2 crate.
• Switch to the blosc2-rs crate.

Usage

# Cargo.toml
[dependencies]
blosc = "0.3"

extern crate blosc;

fn main() {
    let data: Vec<u32> = vec![1, 1, 2, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144];
    let ctx = blosc::Context::new();
    let compressed = ctx.compress(&data[..]);
    let decompressed = decompress(&compressed).unwrap();
    assert_eq!(data, decompressed);
}
