bzip2

Documentation

A streaming compression/decompression library for rust with bindings to libbz2.

Features

By default, bzip2-rs attempts to use the system libbz2. When libbz2 is not available, the library is built from source. A from source build requires a functional C toolchain for your target, and may not work for all targets (in particular webassembly).

libbz2-rs-sys

Since version 0.5.0, this crate also supports using libbz2-rs-sys, a drop-in compatible rust implementation of libbz2. With this feature enabled, cross-compilation should work like any other rust code, and no C toolchain is needed to compile this crate or its dependencies.

bzip2 = { version = "0.5.1", default-features = false, features = ["libbz2-rs-sys"] }

static

Always build libbz2 from C source, and statically link it. This flag is only meaningful when bzip2-sys is used, and has no effect when libbz2-rs-sys is used as the bzip2 implementation.
