A Simple Compression Solution
Project description
Installation
To install oZip, simply use pip:
$ pip install ozip
If for some reason pip is unavailable (Or you’re on Windows), you can install by running the following commands:
$ git clone https://github.com/OzTamir/oZip $ cd oZip $ python setup.py install
If you have any problem with the setup process, you are welcomed to open a Issue in the project’s repository.
Usage
To compress a file run the following command:
$ ozip -i <Path to file>
This will create a file.ext.ozip in the same path.
To decompress a file, run the following command:
$ ozip -i <oZip File> -d
This will decompress the file in the same path.
Roadmap
Going forward there are still many things I’m planning to improve, both in the format design and in my implementation. Just a few of the planned improvements:
Packaging oZip as a CLI tool using setuptools
Adding a testing suite and make sure oZip plays nice on different platforms
Optimize both speed and compression ratio
Adding one of the LZ flavours to improve compression ratio
Creating a packaged executable with a simple GUI
