Detailed Description

API for Brotli decompression.

Macro Definition Documentation

#define BROTLI_DECODER_ERROR_CODES_LIST (   BROTLI_ERROR_CODE,
  SEPARATOR 
)

Template that evaluates items of BrotliDecoderErrorCode.

Example:

// Log Brotli error code.
switch (brotliDecoderErrorCode) {
#define CASE_(PREFIX, NAME, CODE) \
case BROTLI_DECODER ## PREFIX ## NAME: \
LOG(INFO) << "error code:" << #NAME; \
break;
#define NEWLINE_
#undef CASE_
#undef NEWLINE_
default: LOG(FATAL) << "unknown brotli error code";
}
#define BROTLI_LAST_ERROR_CODE   BROTLI_DECODER_ERROR_UNREACHABLE

The value of the last error code, negative integer.

All other error code values are in the range from BROTLI_LAST_ERROR_CODE to -1. There are also 4 other possible non-error codes 0 .. 3 in BrotliDecoderErrorCode enumeration.

Typedef Documentation

typedef void(* brotli_decoder_metadata_chunk_func) (void *opaque, const uint8_t *data, size_t size)

Callback to fire on metadata block chunk becomes available.

This function can be invoked multiple times per metadata block; block should be considered finished when sum of size matches the announced metadata block size. Chunks contents pointed by data are transient and shouln not be accessed after leaving the callback.

Parameters
opaquecallback handle
datapointer to metadata contents
sizesize of metadata block chunk, at least 1
typedef void(* brotli_decoder_metadata_start_func) (void *opaque, size_t size)

Callback to fire on metadata block start.

After this callback is fired, if size is not 0, it is followed by brotli_decoder_metadata_chunk_func as more metadata block contents become accessible.

Parameters
opaquecallback handle
sizesize of metadata block
typedef struct BrotliDecoderStateStruct BrotliDecoderState

Opaque structure that holds decoder state.

Allocated and initialized with BrotliDecoderCreateInstance. Cleaned up and deallocated with BrotliDecoderDestroyInstance.

Enumeration Type Documentation

corrupted input or memory allocation problem.

BROTLI_DECODER_RESULT_SUCCESS 

Decoding successfully completed.

BROTLI_DECODER_RESULT_NEEDS_MORE_INPUT 

Partially done; should be called again with more input.

BROTLI_DECODER_RESULT_NEEDS_MORE_OUTPUT 

Partially done; should be called again with more output.

Function Documentation

BROTLI_BOOL BrotliDecoderAttachDictionary ( BrotliDecoderState state,
BrotliSharedDictionaryType  type,
size_t  data_size,
const uint8_t  data[data_size] 
)

Adds LZ77 prefix dictionary, adds or replaces built-in static dictionary and transforms.

Attached dictionary ownership is not transferred. Data provided to this method should be kept accessible until decoding is finished and decoder instance is destroyed.

Note
Dictionaries can NOT be attached after actual decoding is started.
Parameters
statedecoder instance
typedictionary data format
data_sizelength of memory region pointed by data
datadictionary data in format corresponding to type
Returns
BROTLI_FALSE if dictionary is corrupted, or dictionary count limit is reached
BROTLI_TRUE if dictionary is accepted / attached
BrotliDecoderState* BrotliDecoderCreateInstance ( brotli_alloc_func  alloc_func,
brotli_free_func  free_func,
void *  opaque 
)

Creates an instance of BrotliDecoderState and initializes it.

The instance can be used once for decoding and should then be destroyed with BrotliDecoderDestroyInstance, it cannot be reused for a new decoding session.

alloc_func and free_func MUST be both zero or both non-zero. In the case they are both zero, default memory allocators are used. opaque is passed to alloc_func and free_func when they are called. free_func has to return without doing anything when asked to free a NULL pointer.

Parameters
alloc_funccustom memory allocation function
free_funccustom memory free function
opaquecustom memory manager handle
Returns
0 if instance can not be allocated or initialized
pointer to initialized BrotliDecoderState otherwise
BrotliDecoderResult BrotliDecoderDecompress ( size_t  encoded_size,
const uint8_t  encoded_buffer[encoded_size],
size_t *  decoded_size,
uint8_t  decoded_buffer[*decoded_size] 
)

Performs one-shot memory-to-memory decompression.

Decompresses the data in encoded_buffer into decoded_buffer, and sets *decoded_size to the decompressed length.

Parameters
encoded_sizesize of encoded_buffer
encoded_buffercompressed data buffer with at least encoded_size addressable bytes
[in,out]decoded_sizein: size of decoded_buffer;
out: length of decompressed data written to decoded_buffer
decoded_bufferdecompressed data destination buffer
Returns
BROTLI_DECODER_RESULT_ERROR if input is corrupted, memory allocation failed, or decoded_buffer is not large enough;
BROTLI_DECODER_RESULT_SUCCESS otherwise
BrotliDecoderResult BrotliDecoderDecompressStream ( BrotliDecoderState state,
size_t *  available_in,
const uint8_t **  next_in,
size_t *  available_out,
uint8_t **  next_out,
size_t *  total_out 
)

Decompresses the input stream to the output stream.

The values *available_in and *available_out must specify the number of bytes addressable at *next_in and *next_out respectively. When *available_out is 0, next_out is allowed to be NULL.

After each call, *available_in will be decremented by the amount of input bytes consumed, and the *next_in pointer will be incremented by that amount. Similarly, *available_out will be decremented by the amount of output bytes written, and the *next_out pointer will be incremented by that amount.

total_out, if it is not a null-pointer, will be set to the number of bytes decompressed since the last state initialization.

Note
Input is never overconsumed, so next_in and available_in could be passed to the next consumer after decoding is complete.
Parameters
statedecoder instance
[in,out]available_inin: amount of available input;
out: amount of unused input
[in,out]next_inpointer to the next compressed byte
[in,out]available_outin: length of output buffer;
out: remaining size of output buffer
[in,out]next_outoutput buffer cursor; can be NULL if available_out is 0
[out]total_outnumber of bytes decompressed so far; can be NULL
Returns
BROTLI_DECODER_RESULT_ERROR if input is corrupted, memory allocation failed, arguments were invalid, etc.; use BrotliDecoderGetErrorCode to get detailed error code
BROTLI_DECODER_RESULT_NEEDS_MORE_INPUT decoding is blocked until more input data is provided
BROTLI_DECODER_RESULT_NEEDS_MORE_OUTPUT decoding is blocked until more output space is provided
BROTLI_DECODER_RESULT_SUCCESS decoding is finished, no more input might be consumed and no more output will be produced
void BrotliDecoderDestroyInstance ( BrotliDecoderState state)

Deinitializes and frees BrotliDecoderState instance.

Parameters
statedecoder instance to be cleaned up and deallocated
BrotliDecoderErrorCode BrotliDecoderGetErrorCode ( const BrotliDecoderState state)

Acquires a detailed error code.

Should be used only after BrotliDecoderDecompressStream returns BROTLI_DECODER_RESULT_ERROR.

See also BrotliDecoderErrorString

Parameters
statedecoder instance
Returns
last saved error code
BROTLI_BOOL BrotliDecoderHasMoreOutput ( const BrotliDecoderState state)

Checks if decoder has more output.

Parameters
statedecoder instance
Returns
BROTLI_TRUE, if decoder has some unconsumed output
BROTLI_FALSE otherwise
BROTLI_BOOL BrotliDecoderIsFinished ( const BrotliDecoderState state)

Checks if decoder instance reached the final state.

Parameters
statedecoder instance
Returns
BROTLI_TRUE if decoder is in a state where it reached the end of the input and produced all of the output
BROTLI_FALSE otherwise
BROTLI_BOOL BrotliDecoderIsUsed ( const BrotliDecoderState state)

Checks if instance has already consumed input.

Instance that returns BROTLI_FALSE is considered "fresh" and could be reused.

Parameters
statedecoder instance
Returns
BROTLI_TRUE if decoder has already used some input bytes
BROTLI_FALSE otherwise
void BrotliDecoderSetMetadataCallbacks ( BrotliDecoderState state,
brotli_decoder_metadata_start_func  start_func,
brotli_decoder_metadata_chunk_func  chunk_func,
void *  opaque 
)

Sets callback for receiving metadata blocks.

Parameters
statedecoder instance
start_funccallback on metadata block start
chunk_funccallback on metadata block chunk
opaquecallback handle
BROTLI_BOOL BrotliDecoderSetParameter ( BrotliDecoderState state,
BrotliDecoderParameter  param,
uint32_t  value 
)

Sets the specified parameter to the given decoder instance.

Parameters
statedecoder instance
paramparameter to set
valuenew parameter value
Returns
BROTLI_FALSE if parameter is unrecognized, or value is invalid
BROTLI_TRUE if value is accepted
const uint8_t* BrotliDecoderTakeOutput ( BrotliDecoderState state,
size_t *  size 
)

Acquires pointer to internal output buffer.

This method is used to make language bindings easier and more efficient:

  1. push data to BrotliDecoderDecompressStream, until BROTLI_DECODER_RESULT_NEEDS_MORE_OUTPUT is reported
  2. use BrotliDecoderTakeOutput to peek bytes and copy to language-specific entity

Also this could be useful if there is an output stream that is able to consume all the provided data (e.g. when data is saved to file system).

Attention
After every call to BrotliDecoderTakeOutput *size bytes of output are considered consumed for all consecutive calls to the instance methods; returned pointer becomes invalidated as well.
Note
Decoder output is not guaranteed to be contiguous. This means that after the size-unrestricted call to BrotliDecoderTakeOutput, immediate next call to BrotliDecoderTakeOutput may return more data.
Parameters
statedecoder instance
[in,out]sizein: number of bytes caller is ready to take, 0 if any amount could be handled;
out: amount of data pointed by returned pointer and considered consumed;
out value is never greater than in value, unless it is 0
Returns
pointer to output data
uint32_t BrotliDecoderVersion ( void  )

Gets a decoder library version.

Look at BROTLI_MAKE_HEX_VERSION for more information.
