v0.1.4
Single-file .lstar.zarr.zip
A store can now be packaged as one file — a .lstar.zarr.zip, written with every entry STORED (no deflate) so its already-codec-compressed chunks stay byte-range-readable when hosted. Read and write on all four surfaces (Python, R, C++, JS) and the CLI.
- Produce:
lstar convert dir.lstar.zarr out.lstar.zarr.zip(repackage a directory store),lstar convert … --viewer out.lstar.zarr.zip(a single-file viewer store), or from a library —lstar.write(ds, "x.lstar.zarr.zip")(Python),lstar_write(ds, "x.lstar.zarr.zip")(R). - Read:
lstar.read(...)/lstar_read(...)/lstar::read(...); in the browser,ZipStore.open(httpZipSource(url))reads a hosted zip by HTTPRange— one request per chunk, no extraction. - Writers force STORED (regardless of a chunk compressor) and are ZIP64-aware; a DEFLATE-packed
.lstar.zarr.zipis rejected on read with a clear message. The directory form stays the default working format. Seedocs/format.md§Packaging.
Cross-surface parity is enforced by the conformance suite (conformance/zip*.sh).
