Crate blosc_src[−][src]
Expand description
This crate is for building c-blosc
and linking to the static build.
Constants
Functions
Return the compressor library/format used in a compressed buffer.
Return meta-information about a compressed buffer, namely the type size
(typesize
), as well as some internal flags
.
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).
Checks that the compressed buffer starting at cbuffer
of length cbytes
may
contain valid blosc compressed data, and that it is safe to call
blosc_decompress/blosc_decompress_ctx/blosc_getitem.
Return information about a compressed buffer, namely the internal
Blosc format version (version
) and the format for the internal
compressor used (compversion
).
Get the compname
associated with the compcode
.
Return the compressor code associated with the compressor name.
Compress a block of data in the src
buffer and returns the size of
the compressed block. The size of src
buffer is specified by
nbytes
. There is not a minimum for src
buffer size (nbytes
).
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.
Decompress a block of compressed data in src
, put the result in
dest
and returns the size of the decompressed block.
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.
Destroy the Blosc library environment.
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.
Get the internal blocksize to be used during compression. 0 means that an automatic blocksize is computed internally (the default).
Get info from compression libraries included in the current build.
In compname
you pass the compressor name that you want info from.
Returns the current compressor that is being used for compression.
Returns the current number of threads that are used for compression/decompression.
Return the version of the C-Blosc library in string format.
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.
Initialize the Blosc library environment.
Get a list of compressors supported in the current build. The returned value is a string with a concatenation of “blosclz”, “lz4”, “lz4hc”, “snappy”, “zlib” or “zstd “separated by commas, depending on which ones are present in the build.
Force the use of a specific blocksize. If 0, an automatic blocksize will be used (the default).
Select the compressor to be used. The supported ones are “blosclz”, “lz4”, “lz4hc”, “snappy”, “zlib” and “zstd”. If this function is not called, then “blosclz” will be used by default.
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.
Set the split mode.
