Rust Compresion

Build Status

Documentation

NOTE: This is not a production-quality library, it is a proof of concept. This library mainly contains decoders, not encoders.

This repository aims to house various implementations of compression algorithms, all written in rust. This is still very much a work in progress.

git clone https://github.com/alexcrichton/rust-compress
cd rust-compress
cargo build

Implemented Algorithms

The following algorithms are alredy implemented in the main branch:

  • DEFLATE: standard decoder based on RFC 1951
  • LZ4 (Ziv-Lempel modification): dummy encoder, semi-complete decoder
  • BWT (Burrows-Wheeler Transform): straightforward encoder, standard decoder
  • DC (Distance Coding): basic encoder, standard decoder
  • Ari (Arithmetic coding): standard range encoder/decoder
  • RLE (Run-Length Encoding): basic encoder/decoder

Desired Algorithms

The following algorithms are either planned or in development at this point:

  • WFC (Weight-Frequency Coding)
  • SA/BWT in linear time
