splitx

splitx is a tiny rust library for splitting a text file into pieces with the size of each piece below a specified maximum number of bytes on disk.

Usage

To use splitx, add this to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
splitx = "1.0"

The library's split function has the following arguments:

file_path: the path of the file to be split,
max_file_size_bytes: the maximum size of each piece of the file in bytes after splitting,
num_header_lines: how many lines are the file's header. If no header lines, use 0. Header lines will be kept in each of the pieces.
output_dir: where to write the pieces of the file.
