Overview
Zlib:Inflate is the class for decompressing compressed data. Unlike Deflate
, an instance of this class is not able to duplicate (clone, dup) itself.
Class Method Summary
-
.inflate(string)
Decompresses
string
. -
.new(window_bits = Zlib::MAX_WBITS)
constructor
Creates a new inflate stream for decompression.

Constructor Details
.new(window_bits = Zlib::MAX_WBITS)
Creates a new inflate stream for decompression. window_bits
sets the size of the history buffer and can have the following values:
- 0
-
Have inflate use the window size from the zlib header of the compressed stream.
- (8..15)
-
Overrides the window size of the inflate header in the compressed stream. The window size must be greater than or equal to the window size of the compressed stream.
- Greater than 15
-
Add 32 to window_bits to enable zlib and gzip decoding with automatic header detection, or add 16 to decode only the gzip format (a Zlib::DataError will be raised for a non-gzip stream).
- (-8..-15)
-
Enables raw deflate mode which will not generate a check value, and will not look for any check values for comparison at the end of the stream.
This is for use with other formats that use the deflate compressed data format such as zip which provide their own check values.
Example
open "compressed.file" do |compressed_io|
zi = Zlib::Inflate.new(Zlib::MAX_WBITS + 32)
begin
open "uncompressed.file", "w+" do |uncompressed_io|
uncompressed_io << zi.inflate(compressed_io.read)
end
ensure
zi.close
end
end

Class Method Details
Zlib.inflate(string)
.inflate(string)
Decompresses string
. Raises a NeedDict
exception if a preset dictionary is needed for decompression.
This method is almost equivalent to the following code:
def inflate(string)
zstream = Zlib::Inflate.new
buf = zstream.inflate(string)
zstream.finish
zstream.close
buf
end

Instance Method Details
#<<(string)
Inputs string
into the inflate stream just like #inflate, but returns the Inflate
object itself. The output from the stream is preserved in output buffer.
# File 'ext/zlib/zlib.c', line 2069
static VALUE rb_inflate_addstr(VALUE obj, VALUE src) { struct zstream *z = get_zstream(obj); OBJ_INFECT(obj, src); if (ZSTREAM_IS_FINISHED(z)) { if (!NIL_P(src)) { StringValue(src); zstream_append_buffer2(z, src); } } else { do_inflate(z, src); if (ZSTREAM_IS_FINISHED(z)) { zstream_passthrough_input(z); } } return obj; }
#add_dictionary(string)
Provide the inflate stream with a dictionary that may be required in the future. Multiple dictionaries may be provided. The inflate stream will automatically choose the correct user-provided dictionary based on the stream’s required dictionary.
# File 'ext/zlib/zlib.c', line 1984
static VALUE rb_inflate_add_dictionary(VALUE obj, VALUE dictionary) { VALUE dictionaries = rb_ivar_get(obj, id_dictionaries); VALUE checksum = do_checksum(1, &dictionary, adler32); rb_hash_aset(dictionaries, checksum, dictionary); return obj; }
#inflate(deflate_string) ⇒ String
#inflate(deflate_string) {|chunk| ... } ⇒ nil
String
#inflate(deflate_string) {|chunk| ... } ⇒ nil
Inputs deflate_string
into the inflate stream and returns the output from the stream. Calling this method, both the input and the output buffer of the stream are flushed. If string is nil
, this method finishes the stream, just like ZStream#finish.
If a block is given consecutive inflated chunks from the deflate_string
are yielded to the block and nil
is returned.
Raises a NeedDict
exception if a preset dictionary is needed to decompress. Set the dictionary by #set_dictionary and then call this method again with an empty string to flush the stream:
inflater = Zlib::Inflate.new
begin
out = inflater.inflate compressed
rescue Zlib::NeedDict
# ensure the dictionary matches the stream's required dictionary
raise unless inflater.adler == Zlib.adler32(dictionary)
inflater.set_dictionary dictionary
inflater.inflate ''
end
# ...
inflater.close

static VALUE rb_inflate_inflate(VALUE obj, VALUE src) { struct zstream *z = get_zstream(obj); VALUE dst; OBJ_INFECT(obj, src); if (ZSTREAM_IS_FINISHED(z)) { if (NIL_P(src)) { dst = zstream_detach_buffer(z); } else { StringValue(src); zstream_append_buffer2(z, src); dst = rb_str_new(0, 0); OBJ_INFECT(dst, obj); } } else { do_inflate(z, src); dst = zstream_detach_buffer(z); if (ZSTREAM_IS_FINISHED(z)) { zstream_passthrough_input(z); } } return dst; }
#set_dictionary(dic)
Sets the preset dictionary and returns string
. This method is available just only after a NeedDict
exception was raised. See zlib.h for details.
# File 'ext/zlib/zlib.c', line 2140
static VALUE rb_inflate_set_dictionary(VALUE obj, VALUE dic) { struct zstream *z = get_zstream(obj); VALUE src = dic; int err; OBJ_INFECT(obj, dic); StringValue(src); err = inflateSetDictionary(&z->stream, (Bytef*)RSTRING_PTR(src), RSTRING_LENINT(src)); if (err != Z_OK) { raise_zlib_error(err, z->stream.msg); } return dic; }
#sync(string)
Inputs string
into the end of input buffer and skips data until a full flush point can be found. If the point is found in the buffer, this method flushes the buffer and returns false. Otherwise it returns true
and the following data of full flush point is preserved in the buffer.
# File 'ext/zlib/zlib.c', line 2100
static VALUE rb_inflate_sync(VALUE obj, VALUE src) { struct zstream *z = get_zstream(obj); OBJ_INFECT(obj, src); StringValue(src); return zstream_sync(z, (Bytef*)RSTRING_PTR(src), RSTRING_LEN(src)); }
