Resources

This zig module supports loading, searching, and bundling resources into a bundle for distribution.

Example usage

// Load a repository folder of files (with metadata files)
var bucket = try Resources.create(allocator);
defer bucket.destroy();
_ = bucket.load_directory(folder) catch |e| {
    std.debug.print("error {any} while loading {s}\n", .{ e, folder });
    return Error.FailedReadingRepo;
};

// Load a resource bundle of files.
bucket.load_bundle("/path/to/bundle");

// Search for a resource by filename or word in a filename
var results: std.ArrayListUnmanaged(*Resource) = .empty.
defer results.deinit(allocator);
try bucket.search(keywords.items, .any, &results);
for (results.items) |resource| {
    std.debug.print(" {d}  {s}\n", .{resource.uid, sentence});
}

// Load a file from the resource bucket
const data = resources.read_data(resource, allocator) catch |e| {
    if (e == error.OutOfMemory) return error.OutOfMemory;
    if (e == error.FileNotFound) return error.ResourceNotFound;
    return error.ResourceReadError;
};

// Save the contents of a list of resources into a bundle
buket.save_bundle("/path/to/bundle", results);

Unicode filenames

On mac, some files may accidentally become NFD. You can convert all filenames to NFD usinc convmv:

convmv -r -f utf8 -t utf8 --nfc --notest .
