Overview

GzipReader is the class for reading a gzipped file. GzipReader should be used as an IO, or -IO-like, object.

Zlib::GzipReader.open('hoge.gz') {|gz|
  print gz.read
}

File.open('hoge.gz') do |f|
  gz = Zlib::GzipReader.new(f)
  print gz.read
  gz.close
end

Method Catalogue

The following methods in GzipReader are just like their counterparts in IO, but they raise Error or GzipFile::Error exception if an error was found in the gzip file.

#each
#each_line
#each_byte
#gets
#getc
#lineno
#lineno=
#read
#readchar
#readline
#readlines
#ungetc

Be careful of the footer of the gzip file. A gzip file has the checksum of pre-compressed data in its footer. GzipReader checks all uncompressed data against that checksum at the following cases, and if it fails, raises GzipFile::NoFooter, GzipFile::CRCError, or GzipFile::LengthError exception.

When an reading request is received beyond the end of file (the end of compressed data). That is, when Zlib::GzipReader#read, Zlib::GzipReader#gets, or some other methods for reading returns nil.
When GzipFile#close method is called after the object reaches the end of file.
When #unused method is called after the object reaches the end of file.

The rest of the methods are adequately described in their own documentation.

Class Method Summary

.new(io, options = {}) constructor

Creates a GzipReader object associated with io.
.open(filename) {|gz| ... }

Opens a file specified by filename as a gzipped file, and returns a GzipReader object associated with that file.

`GzipFile` - Inherited

.wrap

Creates a GzipReader or GzipWriter associated with io, passing in any necessary extra options, and executes the block with the newly created object just like File.open.

Instance Attribute Summary

#eof (also: #eof?) readonly

Returns true or false whether the stream has reached the end.
#eof? readonly

Alias for #eof.
#lineno rw

The line number of the last row read from this file.
#lineno=(lineno) rw

Specify line number of the last row read from this file.

`GzipFile` - Inherited

#closed?	Same as `IO#closed?`
#sync	Same as `IO#sync`
#sync=	Same as IO.

#rewind

Resets the position of the file pointer to the point created the GzipReader object.
#tell

Alias for #pos.
#ungetbyte(ch)

See GzipReader documentation for a description.
#ungetc(s)

See GzipReader documentation for a description.
#unused

Returns the rest of the data which had read for parsing gzip format, or nil if the whole gzip file is not parsed yet.

`GzipFile` - Inherited

#close	Closes the `GzipFile` object.
#comment	Returns comments recorded in the gzip file header, or nil if the comments is not present.
#crc	Returns CRC value of the uncompressed data.
#finish	Closes the `GzipFile` object.
#level	Returns compression level.
#mtime	Returns last modification time recorded in the gzip file header.
#orig_name	Returns original filename recorded in the gzip file header, or `nil` if original filename is not present.
#os_code	Returns OS code number recorded in the gzip file header.
#to_io	Same as IO.

Constructor Details

.new(io, options = {})

Creates a GzipReader object associated with io. The GzipReader object reads gzipped data from io, and parses/decompresses it. The io must have a #read method that behaves same as the IO#read.

The options hash may be used to set the encoding of the data. :external_encoding, :internal_encoding and :encoding may be set as in IO.new.

If the gzip file header is incorrect, raises an GzipFile::Error exception.

.open(filename) {|gz| ... }

Opens a file specified by filename as a gzipped file, and returns a GzipReader object associated with that file. Further details of this method are in .new and ZLib::GzipFile.wrap.
