PHP ZSTD

PHP library to allow Zstandard compression and decompression, without the need to install an additional PHP extension.

Dependencies

ZSTD, example installation on Ubuntu:

sudo apt install zstd

Installation

composer require appoly/zstd-php

Usage

Basic

Decompress a file on the local filesystem:

use Appoly\ZstdPhp\ZSTD;

ZSTD::decompress('path/to/file.zst', 'path/to/output/file');

Compress a file on the local filesystem:

use Appoly\ZstdPhp\ZSTD;

ZSTD::compress('path/to/file', 'path/to/output/file.zst');

Advanced

Decompress from a stream, and handle the output yourself in chunks. Can be used with custom filesystems etc to minimise memory usage.

use Appoly\ZstdPhp\ZSTD;

$inputStream = fopen('path/to/file.zst', 'r');
$outputCallback = function ($outputChunk) {
    // Do something with the output chunk
    echo $outputChunk;
};

ZSTD::decompressDataFromStream(
    inputStream: $inputStream,
    outputCallback: $outputCallback
);

fclose($inputStream);
