Re: libWARC | Identify external libraries required by LibWARC (#5)

[Suhas K S]

Suhas K S commented:


Here are the external libraries that libWARC would use:

1. **libuuid:** This would be used for generation of UUIDs required for 
WARC-Record-IDs of individual records.
2. **Gnulib modules:**
    - **crypto/sha1:** This module contains functions for calculating SHA1 
digests which would be useful in obtaining the Block and the Payload digests 
for records.
    - **base32:** WARC specifications require digests to be encoded in base32. 
This module would be used for that.
3. **libzstd:** Compression is an important aspect of writing WARC files. Wget 
used GZIP for WARC compression. LibWARC would use zstd since it offers better 
compression ratios.
