<a href="https://github.com/google/snappy/blob/master/format_description.txt">Snappy compression format</a>,
as well as the
<a href="https://github.com/google/snappy/blob/master/framing_format.txt">framing format</a>.
The goal of Snappy is to provide reasonable compression at high speed. On a
modern CPU, Snappy can compress data at about 300 MB/sec or more and can
decompress data at about 800 MB/sec or more.</p>
<h2 id="install"><a href="#install">Install</a></h2>
<p>To use this crate with
<a href="http://doc.crates.io/index.html">Cargo</a>,
simply add it as a dependency to your <code>Cargo.toml</code>:</p>
<div class="example-wrap ignore"><div class='tooltip'></div><pre class="rust rust-example-rendered"><code>[dependencies]
snap = <span class="string">&quot;0.2&quot;</span></code></pre></div>
<p>and add <code>extern crate snap;</code> to your crate root.</p>
<h2 id="overview"><a href="#overview">Overview</a></h2>
<p>This crate provides two ways to use Snappy. The first way is through the
<code>Reader</code> and <code>Writer</code> types, which implement the <code>std::io::Read</code> and
<code>std::io::Write</code> traits with the Snappy frame format. Unless you have a
specific reason to the contrary, you should only need to use these types.
Specifically, the Snappy frame format permits streaming compression or
decompression.</p>
<p>The second way is through the <code>Decoder</code> and <code>Encoder</code> types. These types
provide lower level control to the raw Snappy format, and don’t support a
streaming interface directly. You should only use these types if you know you
specifically need the Snappy raw format.</p>
<p>Finally, the <code>Error</code> type in this crate provides an exhaustive list of error
conditions that are probably useless in most circumstances. Therefore,
<code>From&lt;snap::Error&gt; for io::Error</code> is implemented in this crate, which will let
you automatically convert a Snappy error to an <code>std::io::Error</code> (when using
<code>try!</code>) with an appropriate error message to display to an end user.</p>
