README
libbzip2-rs: a safer libbzip
This repository contains a Rust implementation of the bzip2 file format that is compatible with the libbzip2 API.
This repository contains the following public crate:
- libbz2-rs-sys, a libbzip2-compatible C API.
How to use libbzip2-rs in your project
libbzip2-rs can be used in both Rust and C projects.
Rust projects
By far the easiest way to use libbzip2-rs is through the bzip2 crate, by simply enabling the libbz2-rs-sys feature gate. This will enable the libbz2-rs-sys backend.
You can also directly use the C api exported by the libbz2-rs-sys crate.
C projects
libbzip2-rs can be built as a shared object file for usage by C programs that dynamically link to libbzip2. Please see the example in libbz2-rs-sys-cdylib.
Acknowledgment
This project is based on a c2rust translation of the original libbzip2.
