package decompress

The type for input sources. With a `Manual source the client must provide input with src. With `String or `Channel source the client can safely discard `Await case (with assert false).

The type for decoders.

decoder src ~o ~w is a decoder that inputs from src.

Output buffer.

de uses o buffer as internal buffer to store output. We recommend to allocate an io_buffer_size buffer as output buffer. Then, dst_rem gives you how many bytes it remains in o.

Window.

de needs a window to be able to interpret `Copy code. Length of window is commonly 32k bytes (but the client can use a smaller one with some assumptions).

decode d is:

• `Await if d has a `Manual input source and awaits for more input. The client must use src to provide it.
• `Flush d if given output buffer o (see decoder) is full. The client must use flush to completely flush o. dst_rem gives you how many bytes it remains in o. Inf.dst_rem d - bigstring_length o gives you how many bytes are available.
• `Malformed err if given input is malformed. err is a human-readable error.
• `End if given input notify end of flow. o is possibly not empty (it can be check with dst_rem).

reset d is a decoder as is when it was created by decoder.

src d s j l provides d with l bytes to read, starting at j in s. This byte range is read by calls to decode with d until `Await is returned. To signal the end of input call the function with l = 0.

• raises Invalid_argument

  when j and l do not correspond to a valid range.

dst_rem d is how many bytes it remains in given output buffer o.

src_rem d is how many bytes it remains in given input buffer.

flush d provides d with new output storage.

checkseum d is ADLER-32 checksum of consumed inputs.

A non-streamable implementation of the RFC 1951. It considers the input to be whole and is therefore able to save some time
