A brotli decoder in elm!

Brotli is a compression algorithm much like the one zip archives use, but better: it is faster, more compact, and specifically geared towards web content and English text. This package decodes Bytes sequences that are compressed with the brotli algorithm:

import Bytes exposing (Bytes)
import Bytes.Encode as Encode
import Bytes.Decode as Decode
import Brotli


bytes : List Int
bytes =
[ 27, 14, 0, 248, 37, 20, 82, 144, 66, 20, 169, 91, 100, 234, 20, 193 ]


buffer : Bytes
buffer =
bytes
|> List.map Encode.unsignedInt8
|> Encode.sequence
|> Encode.encode


result =
Brotli.decode buffer
|> Result.toMaybe
|> Maybe.andThen (\\v -> Decode.decode (Decode.string (Bytes.width v)) v)
--> Just "this is a test\\n"
