smush

Common rust abstraction around a variety of encoding and compression codecs.

Usage

Add this to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
smush = "0.1.5"

Example:

use smush::{
    decode, encode, is_codec_enabled,
    Codec::{self, *},
    Quality,
};

const TEST_DATA: &[u8] = include_bytes!("../src/ipsum.txt");

fn print_delta(identity: f32, encoded: f32, codec: Codec, quality: Quality, timings: &str) {
    let delta = (identity - encoded) / identity * 100f32;
    if delta > 0f32 {
        println!(
            "[{}] - {} is {:.2}% smaller than identity - {}",
            quality, codec, delta, timings
        );
    } else {
        println!(
            "[{}] - {} is {:.2}% larger than identity - {}",
            quality,
            codec,
            delta.abs(),
            timings
        );
    }
}

fn run_test(encoding: Codec, quality: Quality) {
    if is_codec_enabled(encoding) {
        let (encode_elapsed, encoded) = {
            let start_time = Instant::now();
            let e = encode(&TEST_DATA, encoding, quality).unwrap();
            (start_time.elapsed(), e)
        };
        assert_ne!(&TEST_DATA, &encoded.as_slice());

       let (decode_elapsed, decoded) = {
            let start_time = Instant::now();
            let d = decode(&encoded, encoding).unwrap();
            (start_time.elapsed(), d)
        };
        assert_eq!(&TEST_DATA, &decoded.as_slice());

        let encoded_len = encoded.len() as f32;
        print_delta(
            TEST_DATA.len() as f32,
            encoded_len,
            encoding,
            quality,
            &format!(
                "encode: {}, decode: {}",
                encode_elapsed.as_secs_f32(),
                decode_elapsed.as_secs_f32()
            ),
        );
    } else {
        println!("[{}] - {} not enabled", quality, encoding);
    }
}

fn run_tests(quality: Quality) {
    run_test(Deflate, quality);
    run_test(Gzip, quality);
    run_test(Brotli, quality);
    run_test(Zlib, quality);
    run_test(Zstd, quality);
    run_test(Lz4, quality);
    run_test(Xz, quality);
    run_test(BinCode, quality);
    run_test(Base58, quality);
}

fn main() {
    println!("*********************");
    println!("Level 1 Quality");
    println!("*********************");
    run_tests(Quality::Level1);

    println!();
    println!("*********************");
    println!("Default Quality");
    println!("*********************");
    run_tests(Quality::Default);

    println!();
    println!("*********************");
    println!("Maximum Quality");
    println!("*********************");
    run_tests(Quality::Maximum);
}

By default, all codecs are enabled. It may be desirable to only enable the codecs that you want.

You can specify --no-default-features / default-features = false to disable all codecs, and then opt in to the feature names for the codecs you want.

Available codec feature names:

• bincode_support
• brotli_support
• base58_support
• deflate_support
• gzip_support
• xz_support
• lz4_support
• zlib_support
• zstd_support

As an example, the following shows support for only brotli, lz4, and zstd:

$ cargo run --release --example main --no-default-features --features=brotli_support,lz4_support,zstd_support
