Implementation notes

The Java brotli decoder provided by Google only exposes InputStream APIs. It cannot be used to implement a non-blocking BodyDecoder. The C implementation is used instead through JNI bindings (also provided by Google). To allow multi-platform support, native libraries for each supported OS X Architecture are bundled with the JAR and extracted to a temp directory on use.

Supported platforms

OS	x86	x64	Tool Chain	Tested Machines
Windows	✔	✔	Visual C++	Windows 10 & CI
Linux	✔	✔	GCC 9.2.1	Ubuntu 19.10 & CI
Mac OS	❌	❌

Building from source

You can build from source if your platform is not supported. The build routine uses Gradle's native software plugin. You need to have a tool chain that's supported by gradle for your OS.

Steps

After cloning this repo, run gradle with the installBrotli and assemble tasks:

gradlew installBrotli :methanol-brotli:assemble

This builds the native libraries and copies them to src/main/resources for inclusion in the JAR. You will find the assembled ready-to-use Jar in the build/libs/ directory.
