Overview

POC to compile a data set into a modified radix tree, and applying huffman encoding.

Usage

Take in an v1 x509 certificate, and extract the content sets, output them to newline delimited output

$> ruby ./thing.rb d this-cert.pem

This would produce a file named 'this-cert.txt'

To see this txt list, in the tree format, do:

$> ruby ./thing.rb p this-cert.txt | less

Process this output to generate the compiled dictionary output

$> ruby ./thing.rb c this-cert.txt

This would produce a file named 'this-cert.bin' Then, the unpack the binary with:

$> ./unpack this-cert.bin or $> ruby ./unpack.rb this-cert.bin

The 'thing.rb' supports a "-v" verbose flag.

Code compiles

To compile the 'unpack' command, just run make. ( this requires make, gcc, and zlib-devel)
