Rawzip

🚧 👷 This is pre-alpha prior to v0.1.0. Features are missing. Will eat your homework 👷 🚧

A low-level Zip archive reader and writer. Pure Rust. Zero dependencies. Zero unsafe. Fast.

Use Cases

• Bring your own compressor: Leverage the best Rust crates for your needs.
• Concurrent streaming decompression: Parallelize decompression without synchronization.
• Minimal allocations: rawzip deserializes into provided buffers to cut down unnecessary memory usage even as Zip files scale to hundreds of thousands of entries.
• Zero-copy: No allocations or copying needed when the entire Zip file is buffered in memory. Ideal for environments like WebAssembly.
• Raw access: Directly read the compressed bytes and leverage optimal in-memory libraries like libdeflater and zune-inflate.
• Zip file creation: Nothing special, but it's good to be able to create Zip archives.
