WarcConstants.java
Most of the constants should be collected in this class, most of which are primarily for internal use.
ReaderFactory and Readers
WarcReaderFactory.java: This factory can be used to create the various types of readers with optional buffering. You can either get compressed or uncompressed readers. There are also methods which can auto-detect whether or not a compressed reader is required.
WarcReader.java: Abstract reader class which is the base for the all the readers. It also defines the options which can be set on a reader. Currently only digest options.
WarcReaderCompressed.java: A reader implementation for reading compressed records.
WarcReaderUncompressed.java: A reader implementation for reading uncompressed records.
WarcRecord.java
This class contains the record parser, fields and validation.
Auxiliary classes
WarcHeaderLine.java: Reading a WARC header encapsulates each line in instances of this class.
WarcDateParser.java: Parses and validated an WARC date.
WarcDigest.java: Parses, validates and encapsulates a WARC digest header (algorithm, digest, encoding). The encoding is auto-detected and added later in the reading process.
WarcErrorType.java: Defines the different possible error types.
WarcValidationError.java: Defines an WARC validation error using a type, key and value.
