Struct flate2::bufread::ZlibDecoder

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

A ZLIB decoder, or decompressor.

This structure implements a BufRead interface and takes a stream of compressed data as input, providing the decompressed data when read from.

Examples

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

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

fn decode_bufreader(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)
}

Methods

impl<R: BufRead> ZlibDecoder<R>

Important traits for ZlibDecoder<R>

impl<R: BufRead> Read for ZlibDecoder<R>impl<R: BufRead + Write> Write for ZlibDecoder<R>

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

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

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.

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 encoder is continued to be used.

pub fn into_inner(self) -> R

Consumes this decoder, returning the underlying reader.

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.

Trait Implementations

impl<R: Debug> Debug for ZlibDecoder<R>

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl<R: BufRead> Read for ZlibDecoder<R>

fn read(&mut self, into: &mut [u8]) -> Result<usize>

Pull some bytes from this source into the specified buffer, returning how many bytes were read.

fn read_vectored(&mut self, bufs: &mut [IoSliceMut]) -> Result<usize, Error>

Like read, except that it reads into a slice of buffers.

unsafe fn initializer(&self) -> Initializer

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (read_initializer)

Determines if this Reader can work with buffers of uninitialized memory.

fn read_to_end(&mut self, buf: &mut Vec<u8>) -> Result<usize, Error>

Read all bytes until EOF in this source, placing them into buf.

fn read_to_string(&mut self, buf: &mut String) -> Result<usize, Error>

Read all bytes until EOF in this source, appending them to buf.

fn read_exact(&mut self, buf: &mut [u8]) -> Result<(), Error>

Read the exact number of bytes required to fill buf.

fn by_ref(&mut self) -> &mut Self

Creates a "by reference" adaptor for this instance of Read.

fn bytes(self) -> Bytes<Self>

Transforms this Read instance to an [Iterator] over its bytes.

fn chain<R>(self, next: R) -> Chain<Self, R> where
    R: Read, 

Creates an adaptor which will chain this stream with another.

fn take(self, limit: u64) -> Take<Self>

Creates an adaptor which will read at most limit bytes from it.

impl<R: BufRead + Write> Write for ZlibDecoder<R>

fn write(&mut self, buf: &[u8]) -> Result<usize>

Write a buffer into this writer, returning how many bytes were written.

fn flush(&mut self) -> Result<()>

Flush this output stream, ensuring that all intermediately buffered contents reach their destination.

fn write_vectored(&mut self, bufs: &[IoSlice]) -> Result<usize, Error>

Like write, except that it writes from a slice of buffers.

fn write_all(&mut self, buf: &[u8]) -> Result<(), Error>

Attempts to write an entire buffer into this writer.

fn write_fmt(&mut self, fmt: Arguments) -> Result<(), Error>

Writes a formatted string into this writer, returning any error encountered.

fn by_ref(&mut self) -> &mut Self

Creates a "by reference" adaptor for this instance of Write.
