| \description{ |

| \section{Factory}{ |
| |
| The \code{Codec$create()} factory method takes the following argument: |
| \itemize{ |
| \item \code{type}: string name of the compression method. See \link{CompressionType} for |
| a list of possible values. \code{type} may be upper- or lower-cased. Support |
| for compression methods depends on build-time flags for the C++ library. |
| Most builds support at least "gzip" and "snappy". |
| \item \code{compression_level}: compression level, the default value (\code{NA}) uses the default |
| compression level for the selected compression \code{type}. |
| } |
