Bundle is an embeddable compression library that supports 23 compression algorithms and 2 archive formats.
Distributed in two files.
- Archive support: .bun, .zip
- Stream support: DEFLATE, LZMA, LZIP, ZPAQ, LZ4, ZSTD, BROTLI, BSC, CSC, BCM, MCM, ZMOLLY, ZLING, TANGELO, SHRINKER, CRUSH, LZJB, BZIP2 and SHOCO
- Optimized for highest compression ratios on each compressor, where possible.
- Optimized for fastest decompression times on each decompressor, where possible.
- Configurable, redistributable, self-contained, amalgamated and cross-platform (C++03).
- Optional benchmark infrastructure (C++11).
- ZLIB/LibPNG licensed.
[0x00 ...] Optional zero padding (N bits)
[0x70 0x??] Header (8 bits). De/compression algorithm (8 bits)
enum { RAW, SHOCO, LZ4F, MINIZ, LZIP, LZMA20, ZPAQ, LZ4, // 0..7
BROTLI9, ZSTD, LZMA25, BSC, BROTLI11, SHRINKER, CSC20, // 7..14
ZSTDF, BCM, ZLING, MCM, TANGELO, ZMOLLY, CRUSH, LZJB, // 15..22
BZIP2 // 23..
};
[vle_unpacked_size] Unpacked size of the stream (N bytes). Data is stored in a variable
length encoding value, where bytes are just shifted and added into a
big accumulator until MSB is found.
[vle_packed_size] Packed size of the stream (N bytes). Data is stored in a variable
length encoding value, where bytes are just shifted and added into a
big accumulator until MSB is found.
[bitstream] Compressed bitstream (N bytes). As returned by compressor.
If possible, header-less bitstreams are preferred.- Files/datas are packed into streams by using any compression method (see above)
- Streams are archived into a standard ZIP file:
- ZIP entry compression is (0) for packed streams and (1-9) for unpacked streams.
- ZIP entry comment is a serialized JSON of (file) meta-datas (@todo).
- Note: you can mix streams of different algorithms into the very same ZIP archive.#include <cassert>
