Functions

• blosc_cbuffer_complib^⚠
  Return the compressor library/format used in a compressed buffer.
• blosc_cbuffer_metainfo^⚠
  Return information about a compressed buffer, namely the type size (typesize), as well as some internal flags.
• blosc_cbuffer_sizes^⚠
  Return information about a compressed buffer, namely the number of uncompressed bytes (nbytes) and compressed (cbytes). It also returns the blocksize (which is used internally for doing the compression by blocks).
• blosc_cbuffer_versions^⚠
  Return information about a compressed buffer, namely the internal Blosc format version (version) and the format for the internal Lempel-Ziv compressor used (versionlz).
• blosc_compcode_to_compname^⚠
  Get the compname associated with the compcode.
• blosc_compname_to_compcode^⚠
  Return the compressor code associated with the compressor name.
• blosc_compress^⚠
  Compress a block of data in the src buffer and returns the size of compressed block. The size of src buffer is specified by nbytes. There is not a minimum for src buffer size (nbytes).
• blosc_compress_ctx^⚠
  Context interface to blosc compression. This does not require a call to blosc_init() and can be called from multithreaded applications without the global lock being used, so allowing Blosc be executed simultaneously in those scenarios.
• blosc_decompress^⚠
  Decompress a block of compressed data in src, put the result in dest and returns the size of the decompressed block.
• blosc_decompress_ctx^⚠
  Context interface to blosc decompression. This does not require a call to blosc_init() and can be called from multithreaded applications without the global lock being used, so allowing Blosc be executed simultaneously in those scenarios.
• blosc_destroy^⚠
  Destroy the Blosc library environment.
• blosc_free_resources^⚠
  Free possible memory temporaries and thread resources. Use this when you are not going to use Blosc for a long while. In case of problems releasing the resources, it returns a negative number, else it returns 0.
• blosc_get_complib_info^⚠
  Get info from compression libraries included in the current build. In compname you pass the compressor name that you want info from. In complib and version you get the compression library name and version (if available) as output.
• blosc_get_version_string^⚠
  Return the version of blosc in string format.
• blosc_getitem^⚠
  Get nitems (of typesize size) in src buffer starting in start. The items are returned in dest buffer, which has to have enough space for storing all items.
• blosc_init^⚠
  Initialize the Blosc library environment.
• blosc_list_compressors^⚠
  Get a list of compressors supported in the current build. The returned value is a string with a concatenation of “blosclz”, “lz4”, “lz4hc”, “snappy” or “zlib” separated by commas, depending on which ones are present in the build.
• blosc_set_blocksize^⚠
  Force the use of a specific blocksize. If 0, an automatic blocksize will be used (the default).
• blosc_set_compressor^⚠
  Select the compressor to be used. The supported ones are “blosclz”, “lz4”, “lz4hc”, “snappy” and “zlib”. If this function is not called, then “blosclz” will be used.
• blosc_set_nthreads^⚠
  Initialize a pool of threads for compression/decompression. If nthreads is 1, then the serial version is chosen and a possible previous existing pool is ended. If this is not called, nthreads is set to 1 internally.
