lua-resty-brotli

Lua bindings to google brotli for OpenResty/LuaJIT

$ opm get sjnam/lua-resty-brotli

Name

lua-resty-brotli - Lua bindings to Google Brotli for LuaJIT using FFI.

Status

This library is still experimental and under early development.

Installation

To install lua-resty-brotli you need to install Brotli with shared libraries firtst. Then you can install lua-resty-brotli by placing lib/resty/brotli.lua to your lua library path.

Example

Simple usage `` lua local brotlienc = require "resty.brotli.encoder" local brotlidec = require "resty.brotli.decoder"

local encoder = brotlienc:new() local decoder = brotlidec:new()

local txt = string.rep("ABCD", 1000) print("Uncompressed size:", #txt) local c, err = encoder:compress(txt) print("Compressed size:", #c) local txt2, err = decoder:decompress(c) assert(txt == txt2) ``

In nginx with lua-nginx-module

The following sample nginx.conf, the document root directory, html/brotli has only precompressed files with the ".br" filename extension instead of reqular files. `` lua

Methods

new

syntax: encoder, err = brotlienc:new(options?)

syntax: decoder, err = brotlidec:new()

Create brotli encoder and decoder.

The options argument is a Lua table holding the following keys:

  • quality

    Set Brotli quality (compression) level. Acceptable values are in the range from 0 to 11. (Defaults to 11)

  • lgwin

    Set Brotli window size. Window size is (1 << lgwin) - 16.

  • mode

    The compression mode can be BROTLI_MODE_GENERIC (0, default), BROTLI_MODE_TEXT (1, for UTF-8 format text input) or BROTLI_MODE_FONT (2, for WOFF 2.0).

destroy

  • syntax: encoder:destroy()

    Deinitializes and frees BrotliEncoderState instance.

  • syntax: decoder:destroy()

    Deinitializes and frees BrotliDecoderState instance.

compress

syntax: encoded_buffer, err = encoder:compress(input_buffer)

Compresses the data in input_buffer into encoded_buffer.

compressStream

syntax: buffer = encoder:compressStream(stream)

Compresses input stream to output buffer.

decompress

syntax: decoded_buffer, err = decoder:decompress(encoded_buffer)

Decompresses the data in encoded_buffer into decoded_buffer.

decompressStream

syntax: buffer = decoder:decompressStream(encoded_buffer)

Decompresses the data in encoded_buffer into buffer stream
