blast Go Documentation Travis

Golang library for both compressing and decompressing data in the PKWare Data Compression Library (DCL) compressed format, otherwise known as "explode" and "implode" which differ from PKZIP.

Based on:

blast.c in ZLIB written by Mark Adler https://github.com/madler/zlib/blob/master/contrib/blast/blast.c

implode.c Ladislav Zezula 2003 https://github.com/ladislav-zezula/StormLib/blob/master/src/pklib/implode.c

Installation

go get github.com/JoshVarga/blast

Features

Compress ("implode") data using the PKWARE DCL "implode" method
Decompress ("explode") data that has been compressed using PKWARE DCL "implode" method

Example

func ExampleNewWriter() {
	var b bytes.Buffer
	w := blast.NewWriter(&b, blast.Binary, blast.DictionarySize1024)
	w.Write([]byte("AIAIAIAIAIAIA"))
	w.Close()
	fmt.Println(b.Bytes())
	// Output: [0 4 130 36 37 143 128 127]
}

func ExampleNewReader() {
	buff := []byte{0, 4, 130, 36, 37, 143, 128, 127}
	b := bytes.NewReader(buff)
	r, err := blast.NewReader(b)
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
	io.Copy(os.Stdout, r)
	// Output: AIAIAIAIAIAIA
	r.Close()
}
