Batch compress to or decompress dir/\*.tar.zst

## Scope

- Do zst batch compression within rust.

- Simplify the work for team data maintainers.

## Installation

You could choose to install from pre-built binary or Build from source.

### Install from pre-built binary

#### For Windows 10/11 systems

1. Extract `zst_compress-<version>.zip`

   > Put it into searching path if you like to.

2. Change directory to the archive folder you are working with,
   open windows terminal and run `zst_compress.exe -h` and follow the instructions.

   > If zst_compress.exe was not in Path, just run with absolute path.

#### For Linux systems

1. Extract `zst_compress-<version>.tar.zst` with:
   `tar -xvf zst_compress-<version>.tar.zst`

   > Put it into searching path if you like to.

2. In terminal emulator, change directory to the archive folder you are working with,
   run `zst_compress -h` and follow the instructions.

### Build from source

The program was brought with 🦀Rust and therefore can work with most Rust hosts.

This will work for **Linux**, **Windows**, **macOS** with different chips.

1. Install Rust: follow the tutorial to
   [install Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install).

2. Install a Rust [toolchain](https://rust-lang.github.io/rustup/concepts/toolchains.html).

3. Install zst_compress with `cargo install --locked zst_compress`.

4. Now you are ready to run `zst_compress -h`.
