Using the Library

Everything starts with getting an instance of the Staging object. Algorithms are external .ZIP files that are included in each release page. Download the file and initialize the Staging instance in one these ways:

Load from Path

Stagingstaging = Staging.getInstance(Paths.get("C:/path/to/algorithm/cs.02.05.50.zip"));

Load from String representing a full path

Stagingstaging = Staging.getInstance("C:/path/to/algorithm/cs.02.05.50.zip");

Load from a InputStream

try (InputStreamis = Files.newInputStream(zipFilePath)) {
Stagingstaging = Staging.getInstance(is);
}

The staging entity supports the following APIs:
