Release 0.1.0 planing about pako HOT 10 CLOSED

Does this mean, Inflate is not implemented yet? I've tried to use it, but always get an empty error message (Firefox v27).

Yes, it's in separate branch, not compleete yet.

Ok, thank you. I want to use in one of my projects. I'm using Zlib.js currently, but want to see if pako is faster (especially on mobile devices) ;)

Situation with imaya's inflate is better, than with it's deflate.

Come back in 1-2 weeks. I hope, pako will be released, with working inflate and updated benchmarks.

from pako.

Will pako's inflate be usable for parsing deflate streams within larger streams. In particular, I'm writing a git packfile parser. In that format, object bodies are deflate streams, but there is no length header to tell the parser how many bytes to feed to inflate. I need an interface that notifies me when I've fed it enough data and gives back the extra bytes that weren't part of the deflate stream.

@creationix , pako has 2 levels:

• low, with "native" zlib ported functions
• high, with JS interface

High level is just a simple wrapper for convenience, with ability to process data by chunks, ~ the same for inflate and deflate. It's very simple https://github.com/nodeca/pako/blob/master/lib/deflate.js . You can customize default handlers or write your own wrapper for low-level "native" functions.

If you think, that existing wrapper it's not enougth good/flexible - create a ticket, i'm open to suggections.

@creationix i can't demonstrate inflate right now, but you can see, that low level deflate has exactly the same interface & structure, as original zlib https://github.com/nodeca/pako/blob/master/lib/zlib/deflate.js#L1583-L1596 . So, if can do something with zlib, you will be able to do the same with pako.

Cool, I'll check it out after the inflate branch is done. I'm using @chrisdickinson's code for now (since he wrote it specifically for my use case)

from pako.

Good news is that we are still alive :) . Inflate branch is passing almost all tests. See updated plan.

Speed is "ok" (better that competitors in any node version), and i hope it will become "outstanding" when we apply postponed optimizations.

Master is ready for release, docs updated too. If nobody has comments/questions, the first official release will happen soon.
