bzip2-rs
Rust bindings for libbz2 providing streaming bzip2 compression and decompression.
What is bzip2-rs?
bzip2-rs is a Rust library that provides bindings to the libbz2 C library, enabling streaming bzip2 compression and decompression. It solves the problem of integrating the widely-used bzip2 compression algorithm into Rust applications with a safe and efficient interface.
Rust developers who need to compress or decompress data using the bzip2 algorithm, particularly those working with large datasets or streaming data.
Developers choose bzip2-rs for its reliable integration with libbz2, flexibility in linking (system or static), and streaming capabilities, making it a robust choice for compression tasks in Rust.
