Struct ZlibDecoder

pub struct ZlibDecoder<R> { /* private fields */ }

A ZLIB decoder, or decompressor.

This structure implements a Read interface. When read from, it reads compressed data from the underlying Read and provides the uncompressed data.

After reading a single member of the ZLIB data this reader will return Ok(0) even if there are more bytes available in the underlying reader. ZlibDecoder may have read additional bytes past the end of the ZLIB data. If you need the following bytes, wrap the Reader in a std::io::BufReader and use bufread::ZlibDecoder instead.

Examples

use std::io::prelude::*;
use std::io;
use flate2::read::ZlibDecoder;

// Uncompresses a Zlib Encoded vector of bytes and returns a string or error
// Here &[u8] implements Read

fn decode_reader(bytes: Vec<u8>) -> io::Result<String> {
    let mut z = ZlibDecoder::new(&bytes[..]);
    let mut s = String::new();
    z.read_to_string(&mut s)?;
    Ok(s)
}

Implementations

impl<R: Read> ZlibDecoder<R>

pub fn new(r: R) -> ZlibDecoder<R>

Creates a new decoder which will decompress data read from the given stream.

pub fn new_with_buf(r: R, buf: Vec<u8>) -> ZlibDecoder<R>

Creates a new decoder which will decompress data read from the given stream r, using buf as backing to speed up reading.

Note that the specified buffer will only be used up to its current length. The buffer’s capacity will also not grow over time.

pub fn new_with_decompress(r: R, decompression: Decompress) -> ZlibDecoder<R>

Creates a new decoder which will decompress data read from the given stream r, along with decompression settings.

pub fn new_with_decompress_and_buf( r: R, buf: Vec<u8>, decompression: Decompress, ) -> ZlibDecoder<R>

Creates a new decoder which will decompress data read from the given stream r, using buf as backing to speed up reading, along with decompression settings to configure decoder.

Note that the specified buffer will only be used up to its current length. The buffer’s capacity will also not grow over time.

impl<R> ZlibDecoder<R>

pub fn reset(&mut self, r: R) -> R

Resets the state of this decoder entirely, swapping out the input stream for another.

This will reset the internal state of this decoder and replace the input stream with the one provided, returning the previous input stream. Future data read from this decoder will be the decompressed version of r’s data.

Note that there may be currently buffered data when this function is called, and in that case the buffered data is discarded.

pub fn get_ref(&self) -> &R

Acquires a reference to the underlying stream

pub fn get_mut(&mut self) -> &mut R

Acquires a mutable reference to the underlying stream

Note that mutation of the stream may result in surprising results if this decoder is continued to be used.

pub fn into_inner(self) -> R

Consumes this decoder, returning the underlying reader.

Note that there may be buffered bytes which are not re-acquired as part of this transition. It’s recommended to only call this function after EOF has been reached.

pub fn total_in(&self) -> u64

Returns the number of bytes that the decompressor has consumed.

Note that this will likely be smaller than what the decompressor actually read from the underlying stream due to buffering.

pub fn total_out(&self) -> u64

Returns the number of bytes that the decompressor has produced.
