brotli CLI tool built as statically-linked binary

brotli CLI tool

brotli CLI tool v1.0.5 for compression (or decompression) files. Compiled from official sources as a static executable for using on some embedded devices. Tested on Alpine Linux 3.8

See Releases for binaries.

OPTIONS

• -#: compression level (0-9); bigger values cause denser, but slower compression
• -c, --stdout: write on standard output
• -d, --decompress: decompress mode
• -f, --force: force output file overwrite
• -h, --help: display this help and exit
• -j, --rm: remove source file(s); gzip (1)-like behaviour
• -k, --keep: keep source file(s); zstd (1)-like behaviour
• -n, --no-copy-stat: do not copy source file(s) attributes
• -o FILE, --output=FILE output file; valid only if there is a single input entry
• -q NUM, --quality=NUM: compression level (0-11); bigger values cause denser, but slower compression
• -t, --test: test file integrity mode
• -v, --verbose: increase output verbosity
• -w NUM, --lgwin=NUM: set LZ77 window size (0, 10-24) (default: 22); window size is (2**NUM - 16); 0 lets compressor decide over the optimal value; bigger windows size improve density; decoder might require up to window size memory to operate
• -S SUF, --suffix=SUF: output file suffix (default: .br)
• -V, --version: display version and exit
• -Z, --best: use best compression level (default); same as "-q 11"
