Pure interface
compress :: Format -> CompressParams -> ByteString -> ByteString Source #
Compress a data stream provided as a lazy
ByteString
.
There are no expected error conditions. All input data streams are valid. It is possible for unexpected errors to occur, such as running out of memory, or finding the wrong version of the zlib C library, these are thrown as exceptions.
decompress :: Format -> DecompressParams -> ByteString -> ByteString Source #
Decompress a data stream provided as a lazy
ByteString
.
It will throw an exception if any error is encountered in the input data.
If you need more control over error handling then use one the incremental
versions,
decompressST
or
decompressIO
.
Monadic incremental interface
The pure
compress
and
decompress
functions are streaming in the sense
that they can produce output without demanding all input, however they need
the input data stream as a lazy
ByteString
. Having the input data
stream as a lazy
ByteString
often requires using lazy I/O which is not
appropriate in all circumstances.
For these cases an incremental interface is more appropriate. This interface allows both incremental input and output. Chunks of input data are supplied one by one (e.g. as they are obtained from an input source like a file or network source). Output is also produced chunk by chunk.
The incremental input and output is managed via the
CompressStream
and
DecompressStream
types. They represents the unfolding of the process of
compressing and decompressing. They operates in either the
ST
or
IO
monads. They can be lifted into other incremental abstractions like pipes or
conduits, or they can be used directly in the following style.
Using incremental compression
In a loop:
- Inspect the status of the stream
-
When it is
CompressInputRequired
then you should call the action, passing a chunk of input (orempty
when no more input is available) to get the next state of the stream and continue the loop. -
When it is
CompressOutputAvailable
then do something with the given chunk of output, and call the action to get the next state of the stream and continue the loop. -
When it is
CompressStreamEnd
then terminate the loop.
Note that you cannot stop as soon as you have no more input, you need to
carry on until all the output has been collected, i.e. until you get to
CompressStreamEnd
.
Here is an example where we get input from one file handle and send the compressed output to another file handle.
go :: Handle -> Handle -> CompressStream IO -> IO () go inh outh (CompressInputRequired next) = do inchunk <- BS.hGet inh 4096 go inh outh =<< next inchunk go inh outh (CompressOutputAvailable outchunk next) = BS.hPut outh outchunk go inh outh =<< next go _ _ CompressStreamEnd = return ()
The same can be achieved with
foldCompressStream
:
foldCompressStream (\next -> do inchunk <- BS.hGet inh 4096; next inchunk) (\outchunk next -> do BS.hPut outh outchunk; next) (return ())
data CompressStream m Source #
The unfolding of the compression process, where you provide a sequence of uncompressed data chunks as input and receive a sequence of compressed data chunks as output. The process is incremental, in that the demand for input and provision of output are interleaved.
compressST :: Format -> CompressParams -> CompressStream ( ST s) Source #
compressIO :: Format -> CompressParams -> CompressStream IO Source #
Incremental compression in the
IO
monad.
foldCompressStream :: Monad m => (( ByteString -> m a) -> m a) -> ( ByteString -> m a -> m a) -> m a -> CompressStream m -> m a Source #
A fold over the
CompressStream
in the given monad.
One way to look at this is that it runs the stream, using callback functions for the three stream events.
foldCompressStreamWithInput :: ( ByteString -> a -> a) -> a -> ( forall s. CompressStream ( ST s)) -> ByteString -> a Source #
A variant on
foldCompressStream
that is pure rather than operating in a
monad and where the input is provided by a lazy
ByteString
. So we only
have to deal with the output and end parts, making it just like a foldr on a
list of output chunks.
For example:
toChunks = foldCompressStreamWithInput (:) []
Using incremental decompression
The use of
DecompressStream
is very similar to
CompressStream
but with
a few differences:
-
There is the extra possibility of a
DecompressStreamError
-
There can be extra trailing data after a compressed stream, and the
DecompressStreamEnd
includes that.
Otherwise the same loop style applies, and there are fold functions.
data DecompressStream m Source #
The unfolding of the decompression process, where you provide a sequence of compressed data chunks as input and receive a sequence of uncompressed data chunks as output. The process is incremental, in that the demand for input and provision of output are interleaved.
To indicate the end of the input supply an empty input chunk. Note that
for
gzipFormat
with the default
decompressAllMembers
True
you will
have to do this, as the decompressor will look for any following members.
With
decompressAllMembers
False
the decompressor knows when the data
ends and will produce
DecompressStreamEnd
without you having to supply an
empty chunk to indicate the end of the input.
DecompressInputRequired | |
|
|
DecompressOutputAvailable | |
|
|
DecompressStreamEnd |
Includes any trailing unconsumed input data. |
DecompressStreamError |
An error code |
data DecompressError Source #
The possible error cases when decompressing a stream.
This can be
show
n to give a human readable error message.
TruncatedInput |
The compressed data stream ended prematurely. This may happen if the input data stream was truncated. |
DictionaryRequired |
It is possible to do zlib compression with a custom dictionary. This allows slightly higher compression ratios for short files. However such compressed streams require the same dictionary when decompressing. This error is for when we encounter a compressed stream that needs a dictionary, and it's not provided. |
DictionaryMismatch |
If the stream requires a dictionary and you provide one with the
wrong
|
DataFormatError String |
If the compressed data stream is corrupted in any way then you will
get this error, for example if the input data just isn't a compressed
zlib data stream. In particular if the data checksum turns out to be
wrong then you will get all the decompressed data but this error at the
end, instead of the normal successful

The compression parameter types
data CompressParams Source #
The full set of parameters for compression. The defaults are
defaultCompressParams
.
The
compressBufferSize
is the size of the first output buffer containing
the compressed data. If you know an approximate upper bound on the size of
the compressed data then setting this parameter can save memory. The default
compression output buffer size is
16k
. If your estimate is wrong it does
not matter too much, the default buffer size will be used for the remaining
chunks.
Instances

defaultCompressParams :: CompressParams Source #
The default set of parameters for compression. This is typically used with
the
compressWith
function with specific parameters overridden.
data DecompressParams Source #
The full set of parameters for decompression. The defaults are
defaultDecompressParams
.
The
decompressBufferSize
is the size of the first output buffer,
containing the uncompressed data. If you know an exact or approximate upper
bound on the size of the decompressed data then setting this parameter can
save memory. The default decompression output buffer size is
32k
. If your
estimate is wrong it does not matter too much, the default buffer size will
be used for the remaining chunks.
One particular use case for setting the
decompressBufferSize
is if you
know the exact size of the decompressed data and want to produce a strict
ByteString
. The compression and decompression functions
use lazy
ByteString
s but if you set the
decompressBufferSize
correctly then you can generate a lazy
ByteString
with exactly one chunk, which can be
converted to a strict
ByteString

O(1)

gzipFormat :: Format Source #
The gzip format uses a header with a checksum and some optional meta-data about the compressed file. It is intended primarily for compressing individual files but is also sometimes used for network protocols such as HTTP. The format is described in detail in RFC #1952 http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1952.txt
zlibFormat :: Format Source #
The zlib format uses a minimal header with a checksum but no other meta-data. It is especially designed for use in network protocols. The format is described in detail in RFC #1950 http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1950.txt
The 'raw' format is just the compressed data stream without any additional header, meta-data or data-integrity checksum. The format is described in detail in RFC #1951 http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1951.txt
gzipOrZlibFormat :: Format Source #
This is not a format as such. It enabled zlib or gzip decoding with automatic header detection. This only makes sense for decompression.
data CompressionLevel Source #
The compression level parameter controls the amount of compression. This is a trade-off between the amount of compression and the time required to do the compression.

deflateMethod :: Method Source #
'Deflate' is the only method supported in this version of zlib. Indeed it is likely to be the only method that ever will be supported.
data WindowBits Source #
This specifies the size of the compression window. Larger values of this parameter result in better compression at the expense of higher memory usage.
The compression window size is the value of the the window bits raised to
the power 2. The window bits must be in the range
9..15
which corresponds
to compression window sizes of 512b to 32Kb. The default is 15 which is also
the maximum size.
The total amount of memory used depends on the window bits and the
MemoryLevel
. See the
MemoryLevel
for the details.
WindowBits Int | |
DefaultWindowBits |
Deprecated: Use defaultWindowBits. WindowBits constructors will be hidden in version 0.7 |
Instances
defaultWindowBits :: WindowBits Source #
The default
WindowBits
is 15 which is also the maximum size.
windowBits :: Int -> WindowBits Source #
A specific compression window size, specified in bits in the range
9..15
data MemoryLevel Source #
The
MemoryLevel
parameter specifies how much memory should be allocated
for the internal compression state. It is a tradeoff between memory usage,
compression ratio and compression speed. Using more memory allows faster
compression and a better compression ratio.
The total amount of memory used for compression depends on the
WindowBits
and the
MemoryLevel
. For decompression it depends only on the
WindowBits
. The totals are given by the functions:
compressTotal windowBits memLevel = 4 * 2^windowBits + 512 * 2^memLevel decompressTotal windowBits = 2^windowBits
For example, for compression with the default
windowBits = 15
and
memLevel = 8
uses
256Kb
. So for example a network server with 100
concurrent compressed streams would use
25Mb
. The memory per stream can be
halved (at the cost of somewhat degraded and slower compression) by
reducing the
windowBits
and
memLevel
by one.
Decompression takes less memory, the default
windowBits = 15
corresponds
to just
32Kb
.

defaultStrategy :: CompressionStrategy Source #
Use this default compression strategy for normal data.
filteredStrategy :: CompressionStrategy Source #
Use the filtered compression strategy for data produced by a filter (or
predictor). Filtered data consists mostly of small values with a somewhat
random distribution. In this case, the compression algorithm is tuned to
compress them better. The effect of this strategy is to force more Huffman
coding and less string matching; it is somewhat intermediate between
defaultCompressionStrategy
and
huffmanOnlyCompressionStrategy
.
huffmanOnlyStrategy :: CompressionStrategy Source #
Use the Huffman-only compression strategy to force Huffman encoding only (no string match).
