hxPako

pako v1.0.4 port to haxe, for cross-platform zlib functionality.

Features

  • Written in pure haxe (as of now works for js/hxnodejs/java/cs/cpp/hl/flash/neko).
  • Chunking support for big blobs.
  • Results are binary equal to well known zlib (now v1.2.8 ported).

API

import pako.Pako;

// Deflate
//
var input = new UInt8Array();
//... fill input data here
var output = Pako.deflate(input);

// Inflate (simple wrapper can throw exception on broken stream)
//
var compressed = new UInt8Array();
//... fill data to uncompress here
try {
  var result = Pako.inflate(compressed);
} catch (err:Dynamic) {
  trace(err);
}

//
// Alternate interface for chunking & without exceptions
//

var inflator = new pako.Inflate();

inflator.push(chunk1, false);
inflator.push(chunk2, false);
...
inflator.push(chunkN, true); // true -> last chunk

if (inflator.err) {
  trace(inflator.msg);
}

var output = inflator.result;

For more info you can consult pako documentation.

Notes

hxPako (like pako) does not contain some specific zlib functions:

  • deflate - methods deflateCopy, deflateBound, deflateParams, deflatePending, deflatePrime, deflateTune.
  • inflate - inflateGetDictionary, inflateCopy, inflateMark, inflatePrime, inflateSync, inflateSyncPoint, inflateUndermine.

hxPako only supports UInt8Array (unlike pako, which also works with strings and arrays). But it's easy to extend to those too by using UInt8Array.fromBytes() and UInt8Array.fromArray().

Test Suite Timings

Current timings (node.js refers to the original suite from pako, which you can test by running mocha in the top folder). See testAll.hxml.
