Updated and complete version of the zlib shim
daviddias opened this issue · 4 comments
There is a new version of the browserify-zlib shim to zlib available at https://github.com/ipfs/browserify-zlib, it fixes some bugs and more importantly, it adds support for dictionaries.
It seems that not a lot of people use that feature, but it is essential for libp2p-spdy in the browser, which is part of js-libp2p and js-ipfs. Right now we are replacing the shim in our build tool, but it would improve the experience a lot if everyone using it could just the shim that gets injected by browserify.
We've a open PR -- browserify/browserify-zlib#18 -- to the bundled browserify-zlib in browserify, but 8 months have passed since it was open, the author and maintainer seems to be lacking the time to review. What else an we do to move this forward?
Thank you :)
