Zstandard Documentation
|
||
|
|
=======================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This directory contains material defining the Zstandard format,
|
||
|
|
as well as detailed instructions to use `zstd` library.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
__`zstd_manual.html`__ : Documentation of `zstd.h` API, in html format.
|
||
|
|
Click on this link: [http://zstd.net/zstd_manual.html](http://zstd.net/zstd_manual.html)
|
||
|
|
to display documentation of latest release in readable format within a browser.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
__`zstd_compression_format.md`__ : This document defines the Zstandard compression format.
|
||
|
|
Compliant decoders must adhere to this document,
|
||
|
|
and compliant encoders must generate data that follows it.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Should you look for resources to develop your own port of Zstandard algorithm,
|
||
|
|
you may find the following resources useful :
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
__`educational_decoder`__ : This directory contains an implementation of a Zstandard decoder,
|
||
|
|
compliant with the Zstandard compression format.
|
||
|
|
It can be used, for example, to better understand the format,
|
||
|
|
or as the basis for a separate implementation of Zstandard decoder.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
[__`decode_corpus`__](https://github.com/facebook/zstd/tree/dev/tests#decodecorpus---tool-to-generate-zstandard-frames-for-decoder-testing) :
|
||
|
|
This tool, stored in `/tests` directory, is able to generate random valid frames,
|
||
|
|
which is useful if you wish to test your decoder and verify it fully supports the specification.
