ImGajeed76/xpatch v0.4.2

v0.4.2 - WebAssembly & C/C++ Bindings

on GitHub

🎯 Highlights

• WebAssembly bindings: Universal ~890KB package for browsers, Node.js, Bun, Deno, and edge runtimes
• C/C++ bindings: FFI wrapper enabling Go and other language integrations
• npm package reorganization: xpatch-rs is now WASM (recommended), xpatch-rs-native for maximum performance
• ~10µs encode, ~1µs decode for small data in WASM
• 99.88% compression on 10KB files with single-byte changes

Installation

WebAssembly (Browser + Node.js) - Recommended:

npm install xpatch-rs

import init, { encode, decode, get_tag } from "xpatch-rs";
await init();

const delta = encode(0, base, newData, true);
const reconstructed = decode(base, delta);

Node.js Native (Maximum Performance):

npm install xpatch-rs-native

Python:

pip install xpatch-rs

Rust:

[dependencies]
xpatch = "0.4.2"

C/C++:

# Build with axogen
axogen run build c

# Or manually
cd crates/xpatch-c && cargo build --release
