CISA is discontinuing official RSS support for KEV and cybersecurity alerts, shifting updates to email and social media, disrupting automation workflows.
Buffer compression and transformation codecs for use in data storage and communication applications.
Buffer compression and transformation codecs for use in Zarr.js and beyond...
npm install numcodecs
import { Blosc, GZip, Zlib, LZ4, Zstd } from 'numcodecs';
const codec = new Blosc();
// or Blosc.fromConfig({ clevel: 5, cname: 'lz4', shuffle: Blosc.SHUFFLE, blocksize: 0 });
const size = 100000;
const arr = new Uint32Array(size);
for (let i = 0; i < size; i++) {
arr[i] = i;
}
const bytes = new Uint8Array(arr.buffer);
console.log(bytes);
// Uint8Array(400000) [0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 2, 0, 0, 0, ... ]
const encoded = await codec.encode(bytes);
console.log(encoded);
// Uint8Array(3744) [2, 1, 33, 4, 128, 26, 6, 0, 0, 0, 4, 0, ... ]
const decoded = await codec.decode(encoded);
console.log(new Uint32Array(decoded.buffer));
// Uint32Array(100000) [ 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, ... ]
This project is an incomplete TypeScript implementation of the buffer compression library
numcodecs
. The following codecs
are currently supported:
blosc
gzip
lz4
zlib
zstd
Each compressor is bundled as the default export of separate code-split submodules. This makes it easy to import each module independently in your applications or from a ESM-friendly CDN like skypack.
// Main entry point (exports all codecs)
import { Zlib } from 'numcodecs';
// Submodule entry point (exports only `zlib`)
import Zlib from 'numcodecs/zlib';
// Main entry point (exports all codecs)
import { Zlib } from 'https://cdn.skypack.dev/numcodecs';
// Submodule entry point (exports only `zlib`)
import Zlib from 'https://cdn.skypack.dev/numcodecs/zlib';
$ git clone https://github.com/manzt/numcodecs.js.git
$ cd numcodecs.js
$ npm install && npm run test
The <codec_name>.js
+ <codec_name>.wasm
source for each WASM-based codec are
generated with Docker with the following commands:
cd codecs/<codec_name>
npm run build
For changes to be reflected in package changelogs, run npx changeset
and
follow the prompts.
Note not every PR requires a changeset. Since changesets are focused on releases and changelogs, changes to the repository that don't effect these won't need a changeset (e.g., documentation, tests).
The Changesets GitHub action will create and update a PR that applies changesets and publishes new versions.
