brotlipy

This library contains Python bindings for the reference Brotli encoder/decoder,
available here_. This allows Python software to use the Brotli compression
algorithm directly from Python code.

To use it simply, try this:

.. code-block:: python

import brotli
data = brotli.decompress(compressed_data)

More information can be found in the documentation_.
