Decompression requires knowledge of the decompressed data length. Compression works as follows: if data only contains zeroes, CompressBytes(data) == nil otherwise if len(data) <= 1, CompressBytes(data) == data otherwise: CompressBytes(data) == append(CompressBytes(nonZeroBits(data)), nonZeroBytes(data)...) where nonZeroBits(data) is a bit vector with len(data) bits (MSB first): nonZeroBits(data)[i/8] && (1 << (7-i%8)) != 0 if data[i] != 0 len(nonZeroBits(data)) == (len(data)+7)/8 nonZeroBytes(data) contains the non-zero bytes of data in the same order */ // CompressBytes compresses the input byte slice func CompressBytes(data []byte) []byte { if len(data) == 0 { return nil } if len(data) == 1 { if data[0] == 0 { return nil } else { return data } } bitsLen := (len(data) + 7) / 8 nonZeroBits := make([]byte, bitsLen) nonZeroBytes := make([]byte, 0, len(data)) for i, b := range data { if b != 0 { nonZeroBytes = append(nonZeroBytes, b) nonZeroBits[i/8] |= 1 << byte(7-i%8) } } if len(nonZeroBytes) == 0 { return nil } return append(CompressBytes(nonZeroBits), nonZeroBytes...) } // DecompressBytes decompresses data with a known target size. // In addition to the decompressed output, the function returns the length of // compressed input data corresponding to the output.
