zstd-sys

This is the low-level auto-generated binding to the zstd library. You probably don't want to use this library directly; instead, look at zstd-rs or zstd-safe.

Compile it yourself

zstd is included as a submodule. To get everything during your clone, use:

git clone https://github.com/gyscos/zstd-rs --recursive

Or, if you cloned it without the --recursive flag, call this from inside the repository:

git submodule update --init

Then, running cargo build in this directory should take care of building the C library and linking to it.

Build-time bindgen

This library includes a pre-generated bindings.rs file. You can also generate new bindings at build-time, using the bindgen feature:

cargo build --features bindgen

lib.rs:
