Simple and transparent support for compressed files.
This library provides two main features:
- sniffs out compression formats from input files and returns a Read trait object ready for consumption.
- Create a Writer initialized with compression ready for writing.
The goal is to lower the barrier to open and use a file, especially in bioinformatics workflows.
Many similar projects exist in other languages:
- C: rbread
- Python: xphyle
- Perl: AnyUncompress
- go: Archiver
