ZXC Python Bindings

High-performance Python bindings for the ZXC asymmetric compressor, optimized for fast decompression.
Designed for Write Once, Read Many workloads like ML datasets, game assets, and caches.

Features

  • Blazing fast decompression - ZXC is specifically optimized for read-heavy workloads.
  • Buffer protocol support - works with bytes, bytearray, memoryview, and even NumPy arrays.
  • Releases the GIL during compression/decompression - true parallelism with Python threads.
  • Stream helpers - compress/decompress file-like objects.

Installation (from source)

git clone https://github.com/hellobertrand/zxc.git
cd zxc/wrappers/python
python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate 
pip install .
