Crate zeekstd 

This crate provides a Rust implementation of the Zstandard Seekable Format, as outlined in the specification.

The seekable format splits compressed data into a series of independent “frames”, each compressed individually, so that decompression of a section in the middle of an archive only requires zstd to decompress at most a frame’s worth of extra data, instead of the entire archive.

The frames are appended, so that the decompression of the entire payload still regenerates the original content, using any compliant zstd decoder.

Zeekstd uses bindings from the zstd_safe crate.

Getting Started

• The RawEncoder and Encoder compress data into seekable archives.
• The Decoder performs seekable decompression.
• The SeekTable holds information of the frames of a seekable archive, it gets created and updated automatically during compression.
