Wrapper scripts and code around the brotli code base.
Builds libraries out of the brotli decode and encode sources. Uses autotools.
'brotlidec' is the library for decoding, decompression
'brotlienc' is the library for encoding, compression
This library and effort made sense in the early days when no brotli library was provided by the brotli project. Once the brotli project started providing libraries by itself, this project turned deprecated.
Switch to the "real" brotli project's library instead!
This repository is kept around only for historic reasons.
First make sure you have libtool, autoconf and automake installed.
Clone the libbrotli repository, e.g.
$ git clone https://github.com/bagder/libbrotli
Then run:
$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure
$ make
$ make install
Installs the libraries and the necessary include files.
The include files are placed in a brotli subdir under the install prefix so include them like
#include <brotli/decode.h>
#include <brotli/encode.h>
in your source code.
Consider these build files MIT licensed. brotli itself is also under an MIT license.
