LZString

LZ-based compression algorithm for Haxe.

This is a port of lz-string https://github.com/pieroxy/lz-string. More info about the library can be found here http://pieroxy.net/blog/pages/lz-string/index.html.

This library should run on all Haxe targets. (but is mostly tested in JavaScript and Macro context).

Dependencies

• Haxe 4.0+

Install the library for your project

Install the library using haxelib

haxelib install lzstring

And add this to your compile arguments / build hxml file

-lib lzstring

Using the library

Import the library in your code.

import lzstring.LZString;

API

compress(uncompressed:String):String
compressToBase64(input:String):String
compressToEncodedURIComponent(input:String):String
compressToUint8Array(uncompressed:String):UInt8Array
compressToUTF116(input:String):String

decompress(compressed:String):String
decompressFromBase64(input:String):String
decompressFromEncodedURIComponent(input:String):String
decompressFromUint8Array(compressed:UInt8Array):String
decompressFromUTF116(compressed:String):String

Usage

var input = "aaaaabaaaaacaaaaadaaaaaeaaaaaaa";
var l = new LZString();

var compressed = l.compress(input);
trace(compressed);  // ↉ࣔ䆍㠄혅㖈耀

var decompressed = l.decompress(compressed);
trace(decompressed); // aaaaabaaaaacaaaaadaaaaaeaaaaaaa

trace(input == decompressed); // true

Base64

var input = "aaaaabaaaaacaaaaadaaaaaeaaaaaaa";
var l = new LZString();
var compressed = l.compressToBase64(input);
trace(compressed); // IYkI1EGNOATWBTWIg===

var decompressed = l.decompressFromBase64(compressed);
trace(decompressed); // aaaaabaaaaacaaaaadaaaaaeaaaaaaa

trace(input == decompressed); // true
