deflate 0.4.0

An in-memory DEFLATE and zlib encoder written in safe rust
Documentation

deflate-rs

An rust implementation of a DEFLATE encoder. Not a direct port, but does take some inspiration from zlib and zopfli(for huffman code length generation).

So far, in-memory deflate encoding with and without zlib metadata (no zlib dictionary or gzip support yet) has been is implemented. No unsafe code has been used. Speed-wise it's not quite up to zlib-levels yet.

Usage:

let data = ...;
let compressed = deflate_bytes(&data);
