Py-blosc2
Jul 20, 2023
Python wrapper for the C-Blosc2 library
C-Blosc2 is the new major version of C-Blosc, and is backward compatible with both the C-Blosc1 API and its in-memory format. Python-Blosc2 is a Python package that wraps C-Blosc2, the newest version of the Blosc compressor.
Currently Python-Blosc2 already reproduces the API of Python-Blosc, so it can be used as a drop-in replacement. However, there are a few exceptions for a full compatibility.
In addition, Python-Blosc2 aims to leverage the new C-Blosc2 API so as to support super-chunks, multi-dimensional arrays NDArray, serialization and other bells and whistles introduced in C-Blosc2. Although this is always and endless process, we have already catch up with most of the C-Blosc2 API capabilities.
Note Python-Blosc2 is meant to be backward compatible with Python-Blosc data. That means that it can read data generated with Python-Blosc, but the opposite is not true i.e. there is no forward compatibility.
