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.

Install from PyPI:

.. code-block::

    $ python -m pip install brotlicffi

Install from Conda:

.. code-block::

    $ conda install -c conda-forge brotlicffi

To use it simply, try this:

.. code-block:: python

    import brotlicffi
    data = brotlicffi.decompress(compressed_data)

More information can be found `in the documentation`_.

.. _in the documentation: https://brotlipy.readthedocs.org

Using BrotliCFFI in Projects
----------------------------

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)

Essentially you use requirements like this:

 .. code-block:: python

    install_requires=[
        "brotli; platform_python_implementation == 'CPython'",
        "brotlicffi; platform_python_implementation != 'CPython'"
    ]

and then import the correct Brotli library like so:

 .. code-block:: python

    try:
        import brotlicffi as brotli
    except ImportError:
        import brotli

We provide an `example project`_ that shows how to use both
libraries together to support Brotli with multiple Python implementations.

Changelog
=========

1.2.0.1 (2025-03-05)
--------------------

- Added support for the free-threaded build of Python 3.14.
- Concurrent sharing of Compressor or Decompressor objects
  now raises an exception.

1.2.0.0 (2025-11-21)
--------------------

- Upgraded libbrotli to v1.2.0.
- Added ``output_buffer_limit`` parameter to ``Decompressor.decompress()`` and
  ``Decompressor.process()`` methods to allow mitigation of unexpectedly large
  output. This addresses potential security concerns where maliciously crafted
  compressed data could result in excessive memory usage during decompression.


1.1.0.0 (2023-09-14)
--------------------

- Upgraded libbrotli to v1.1.0
- Added explicit support for Python 3.10, 3.11, and 3.12
- Removed support for Python 2.7, 3.5, and 3.6


1.0.9.2 (2021-04-06)
--------------------

- Added ``manylinux_aarch64`` wheels


1.0.9.1 (2021-01-27)
--------------------

- Avoid byte/string comparison warning in error message construction


1.0.9.0 (2021-01-20)
--------------------

- Updated to v1.0.9 of the Brotli library
- Library version now follows Brotli version
- Removed the ``dictionary`` parameter from ``compress`` and ``Compressor``
- **NOTE:** Python 2.7 wheels for Windows likely won't work until
  `google/brotli#848`_ is resolved

.. _google/brotli#848: https://github.com/google/brotli/issues/848

0.8.0 (2020-11-30)
------------------

- Renamed the package on PyPI to ``brotlicffi``, all further updates will be
  published to the new package. Using the ``brotlipy`` is deprecated.
- Changed the importable namespace from ``brotli`` to ``brotlicffi`` to no longer
  conflict with the ``Brotli`` PyPI package.
- Added ``process()`` method to ``Compressor`` and ``Decompressor``.
- Added ``is_finished()`` method to ``Decompressor``.

0.7.0 (2017-05-30)
------------------

- Update to v0.6.0 of the Brotli library.

0.6.0 (2016-09-08)
------------------

- Resolved a bug where ``decompress()`` would return an empty bytestring
  instead of erroring if the provided bytestring was small enough.
- Added the ``finish()`` method to the streaming decompressor.

0.5.1 (2016-08-17)
------------------

- Update to v0.5.2 of the Brotli library.
- Add new exception type (``Error``).
- Add compatibility with C++ brotli library by aliasing ``Error`` to ``error``.
- Extra error checking of input parameters to the compressor.

0.5.0 (2016-08-16)
------------------

- Update to v0.5.0 of the Brotli library.
- Extend one-shot compression API to include all control parameters.
- Added streaming/incremental compression API.
- Added flags to control compression mode.

0.4.0 (2016-08-01)
------------------

Update to v0.4.0 of the Brotli library.

0.3.0 (2016-05-11)
------------------

Update to v0.3.0 of the Brotli library.

0.2.0 (2015-10-05)
------------------

Fix broken ``brotli.compress`` support on Windows.

0.1.3 (2015-10-05)
------------------

- Added basic for ``brotli.compress`` through a C wrapper included in this
  library.
