nimlz4
Nim wrapper for LZ4
Installation
nimble install https://github.com/SeaniaTwix/nimlz4
then apply requires "nimlz4 >= 0.2.0" to your .nimble file
Simple compression (block API)
Use this API when you don't care about interoperability and assume only this wrapper will be used to compress and decompress strings
not tested
Frame compression (auto-framing API) - Tested
Use the frame API when you want your compressed data to be decompressable by other programs.
