This library contains Python CFFI bindings for the reference Brotli encoder/decoder, available here. This allows Python software to use the Brotli compression algorithm directly from Python code.
To use it simply, try this:
import brotlicffi
data = brotlicffi.decompress(compressed_data)More information can be found in the documentation.
The API is 100% compatible with the Brotli Python C bindings. We recommend installing the C bindings on CPython and the CFFI bindings everywhere else (PyPy, etc)
We provide an example project that shows how to use both libraries together to support Brotli with multiple Python implementations.
