We are open for comments

Please open an issue or contact us on Discord if you have suggestions. The API will stabilize in Jan 2025, followed by a 1.0.0 release.

Installation​

In order to use this library, we need to add one of the following line in our build.sbt file:

libraryDependencies += "dev.zio" %% "zio-streams-compress-brotli" % "0.0.2"
libraryDependencies += "dev.zio" %% "zio-streams-compress-brotli4j" % "0.0.2"
libraryDependencies += "dev.zio" %% "zio-streams-compress-bzip2" % "0.0.2"
libraryDependencies += "dev.zio" %% "zio-streams-compress-gzip" % "0.0.2"
libraryDependencies += "dev.zio" %% "zio-streams-compress-lz4" % "0.0.2"
libraryDependencies += "dev.zio" %% "zio-streams-compress-tar" % "0.0.2"
libraryDependencies += "dev.zio" %% "zio-streams-compress-zip" % "0.0.2"
libraryDependencies += "dev.zio" %% "zio-streams-compress-zip4j" % "0.0.2"
libraryDependencies += "dev.zio" %% "zio-streams-compress-zstd" % "0.0.2"

For Brotli you can choose between the 'brotli' and the 'brotli4j' version. The first is based on the official Java library but only does decompression. The second is based on Brotli4J which does compression and decompression.

For ZIP files you can choose between the 'zip' and the 'zip4j' version. The first allows you to tweak the compression level, while the second allows you work with password-protected ZIP files.

Currently only jvm is supported. PRs for scala-js and scala-native are welcome.
