# Open-Meteo File-Format-Wasm

WebAssembly bindings for the [Open-Meteo File Format](https://github.com/open-meteo/om-file-format/).

## Overview

This package provides WebAssembly bindings to the OmFileFormat C library, enabling efficient reading of OmFile data in web browsers and Node.js environments. It is designed to be used by the `@openmeteo/file-reader` package, but can also be used independently.

## Features

- Direct WebAssembly bindings to the C implementation of OmFileFormat
- High-performance data access
- ES module format
- Browser and Node.js compatibility

## Installation

```bash
npm install @openmeteo/file-format-wasm
```

## Usage

```javascript
import { OmFileFormat } from "@openmeteo/file-format-wasm";

// Initialize the WASM module
const module = await OmFileFormat.default();

// Use the raw WASM functions
const headerSize = module._om_header_size();
```
