Simple compression and decompression
compress :: ByteString -> ByteString Source #
decompress :: ByteString -> ByteString Source #
Extended api with control over compression parameters
compressWith :: CompressParams -> ByteString -> ByteString Source #
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.

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
in
O(1)
time using

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.

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
.

The strategy parameter is used to tune the compression algorithm.
The strategy parameter only affects the compression ratio but not the correctness of the compressed output even if it is not set appropriately.

Deprecated: Use filteredStrategy. CompressionStrategy constructors will be hidden in version 0.7 |
| HuffmanOnly |
Deprecated: Use huffmanOnlyStrategy. CompressionStrategy constructors will be hidden in version 0.7 |
Instances
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).
