**1. Text configurations (e.g. JSON)**

A ~3.5kB string of JSON can be compressed down ~2.5kB ([see it on Godbolt](https://godbolt.org/z/1MzG1v)).

## How to Use
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```cpp
|
|
|
|
|
#include "consteval_huffman.hpp"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
constexpr static const char some_data_raw[] = /* insert text here */;
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
// Creates an object with the compressed data
|
|
|
|
|
// If data is not smaller after compression, huffman_compress will keep the data uncompressed
|
|
|
|
|
constinit static const auto some_data = huffman_compress<some_data_raw>();
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
// Or, with a set data length:
|
|
|
|
|
// ... some_data = huffman_compress<some_data_raw, 1500>();
|
|
|
|
|
// Using the _huffman suffix creates an object with the compressed data.
|
|
|
|
|
// If data is not smaller after compression, the object will keep the data uncompressed.
|
|
|
|
|
constinit auto some_data = "This is my string of data"_huffman;
