All the gzip headers defined in RFC 1952 can be created using this module. For reading RFC 1952 files/buffers, see the companion module L<IO::Uncompress::Gunzip|IO::Uncompress::Gunzip>. =head1 Functional Interface A top-level function, C<gzip>, is provided to carry out "one-shot" compression between buffers and/or files. For finer control over the compression process, see the L</"OO Interface"> section. use IO::Compress::Gzip qw(gzip $GzipError) ; gzip $input_filename_or_reference => $output_filename_or_reference [,OPTS] or die "gzip failed: $GzipError\n"; The functional interface needs Perl5.005 or better. =head2 gzip $input_filename_or_reference => $output_filename_or_reference [, OPTS] C<gzip> expects at least two parameters, C<$input_filename_or_reference> and C<$output_filename_or_reference> and zero or more optional parameters (see L</Optional Parameters>) =head3 The C<$input_filename_or_reference> parameter The parameter, C<$input_filename_or_reference>, is used to define the source of the uncompressed data. It can take one of the following forms: =over 5 =item A filename If the C<$input_filename_or_reference> parameter is a simple scalar, it is assumed to be a filename. This file will be opened for reading and the input data will be read from it. =item A filehandle If the C<$input_filename_or_reference> parameter is a filehandle, the input data will be read from it. The string '-' can be used as an alias for standard input. =item A scalar reference If C<$input_filename_or_reference> is a scalar reference, the input data will be read from C<$$input_filename_or_reference>. =item An array reference If C<$input_filename_or_reference> is an array reference, each element in the array must be a filename. The input data will be read from each file in turn. The complete array will be walked to ensure that it only contains valid filenames before any data is compressed. =item An Input FileGlob string If C<$input_filename_or_reference> is a string that is delimited by the characters "<" and ">" C<gzip> will assume that it is an I<input fileglob string>. The input is the list of files that match the fileglob. See L<File::GlobMapper|File::GlobMapper> for more details. =back If the C<$input_filename_or_reference> parameter is any other type, C<undef> will be returned. In addition, if C<$input_filename_or_reference> is a simple filename, the default values for the C<Name> and C<Time> options will be sourced from that file. If you do not want to use these defaults they can be overridden by explicitly setting the C<Name> and C<Time> options or by setting the C<Minimal> parameter. =head3 The C<$output_filename_or_reference> parameter The parameter C<$output_filename_or_reference> is used to control the destination of the compressed data. This parameter can take one of these forms. =over 5 =item A filename If the C<$output_filename_or_reference> parameter is a simple scalar, it is assumed to be a filename. This file will be opened for writing and the compressed data will be written to it. =item A filehandle If the C<$output_filename_or_reference> parameter is a filehandle, the compressed data will be written to it. The string '-' can be used as an alias for standard output. =item A scalar reference If C<$output_filename_or_reference> is a scalar reference, the compressed data will be stored in C<$$output_filename_or_reference>. =item An Array Reference If C<$output_filename_or_reference> is an array reference, the compressed data will be pushed onto the array. =item An Output FileGlob If C<$output_filename_or_reference> is a string that is delimited by the characters "<" and ">" C<gzip> will assume that it is an I<output fileglob string>. The output is the list of files that match the fileglob. When C<$output_filename_or_reference> is an fileglob string, C<$input_filename_or_reference> must also be a fileglob string. Anything else is an error. See L<File::GlobMapper|File::GlobMapper> for more details. =back If the C<$output_filename_or_reference> parameter is any other type, C<undef> will be returned. =head2 Notes When C<$input_filename_or_reference> maps to multiple files/buffers and C<$output_filename_or_reference> is a single file/buffer the input files/buffers will be stored in C<$output_filename_or_reference> as a concatenated series of compressed data streams. =head2 Optional Parameters The optional parameters for the one-shot function C<gzip> are (for the most part) identical to those used with the OO interface defined in the L</"Constructor Options"> section. The exceptions are listed below =over 5 =item C<< AutoClose => 0|1 >> This option applies to any input or output data streams to C<gzip> that are filehandles. If C<AutoClose> is specified, and the value is true, it will result in all input and/or output filehandles being closed once C<gzip> has completed. This parameter defaults to 0. =item C<< BinModeIn => 0|1 >> This option is now a no-op. All files will be read in binmode. =item C<< Append => 0|1 >> The behaviour of this option is dependent on the type of output data stream. =over 5 =item * A Buffer If C<Append> is enabled, all compressed data will be append to the end of the output buffer. Otherwise the output buffer will be cleared before any compressed data is written to it. =item * A Filename If C<Append> is enabled, the file will be opened in append mode. Otherwise the contents of the file, if any, will be truncated before any compressed data is written to it. =item * A Filehandle If C<Append> is enabled, the filehandle will be positioned to the end of the file via a call to C<seek> before any compressed data is written to it. Otherwise the file pointer will not be moved. =back When C<Append> is specified, and set to true, it will I<append> all compressed data to the output data stream. So when the output is a filehandle it will carry out a seek to the eof before writing any compressed data. If the output is a filename, it will be opened for appending. If the output is a buffer, all compressed data will be appended to the existing buffer. Conversely when C<Append> is not specified, or it is present and is set to false, it will operate as follows. When the output is a filename, it will truncate the contents of the file before writing any compressed data. If the output is a filehandle its position will not be changed. If the output is a buffer, it will be wiped before any compressed data is output. Defaults to 0. =back =head2 Examples Here are a few example that show the capabilities of the module. =head3 Streaming This very simple command line example demonstrates the streaming capabilities of the module. The code reads data from STDIN, compresses it, and writes the compressed data to STDOUT. $ echo hello world | perl -MIO::Compress::Gzip=gzip -e 'gzip \*STDIN => \*STDOUT' >output.gz The special filename "-" can be used as a standin for both C<\*STDIN> and C<\*STDOUT>, so the above can be rewritten as $ echo hello world | perl -MIO::Compress::Gzip=gzip -e 'gzip "-" => "-"' >output.gz =head3 Compressing a file from the filesystem To read the contents of the file C<file1.txt> and write the compressed data to the file C<file1.txt.gz>. use strict ; use warnings ; use IO::Compress::Gzip qw(gzip $GzipError) ; my $input = "file1.txt"; gzip $input => "$input.gz" or die "gzip failed: $GzipError\n"; =head3 Reading from a Filehandle and writing to an in-memory buffer To read from an existing Perl filehandle, C<$input>, and write the compressed data to a buffer, C<$buffer>. use strict ; use warnings ; use IO::Compress::Gzip qw(gzip $GzipError) ; use IO::File ; my $input = IO::File->new( "<file1.txt" ) or die "Cannot open 'file1.txt': $!\n" ; my $buffer ; gzip $input => \$buffer or die "gzip failed: $GzipError\n"; =head3 Compressing multiple files To compress all files in the directory "/my/home" that match "*.txt" and store the compressed data in the same directory use strict ; use warnings ; use IO::Compress::Gzip qw(gzip $GzipError) ; gzip '</my/home/*.txt>' => '<*.gz>' or die "gzip failed: $GzipError\n"; and if you want to compress each file one at a time, this will do the trick use strict ; use warnings ; use IO::Compress::Gzip qw(gzip $GzipError) ; for my $input ( glob "/my/home/*.txt" ) { my $output = "$input.gz" ; gzip $input => $output or die "Error compressing '$input': $GzipError\n"; } =head1 OO Interface =head2 Constructor The format of the constructor for C<IO::Compress::Gzip> is shown below my $z = IO::Compress::Gzip->new( $output [,OPTS] ) or die "IO::Compress::Gzip failed: $GzipError\n"; It returns an C<IO::Compress::Gzip> object on success and undef on failure. The variable C<$GzipError> will contain an error message on failure. If you are running Perl 5.005 or better the object, C<$z>, returned from IO::Compress::Gzip can be used exactly like an L<IO::File|IO::File> filehandle. This means that all normal output file operations can be carried out with C<$z>. For example, to write to a compressed file/buffer you can use either of these forms $z->print("hello world\n"); print $z "hello world\n"; The mandatory parameter C<$output> is used to control the destination of the compressed data. This parameter can take one of these forms. =over 5 =item A filename If the C<$output> parameter is a simple scalar, it is assumed to be a filename. This file will be opened for writing and the compressed data will be written to it. =item A filehandle If the C<$output> parameter is a filehandle, the compressed data will be written to it. The string '-' can be used as an alias for standard output. =item A scalar reference If C<$output> is a scalar reference, the compressed data will be stored in C<$$output>. =back If the C<$output> parameter is any other type, C<IO::Compress::Gzip>::new will return undef. =head2 Constructor Options C<OPTS> is any combination of zero or more the following options: =over 5 =item C<< AutoClose => 0|1 >> This option is only valid when the C<$output> parameter is a filehandle. If specified, and the value is true, it will result in the C<$output> being closed once either the C<close> method is called or the C<IO::Compress::Gzip> object is destroyed. This parameter defaults to 0. =item C<< Append => 0|1 >> Opens C<$output> in append mode. The behaviour of this option is dependent on the type of C<$output>. =over 5 =item * A Buffer If C<$output> is a buffer and C<Append> is enabled, all compressed data will be append to the end of C<$output>. Otherwise C<$output> will be cleared before any data is written to it. =item * A Filename If C<$output> is a filename and C<Append> is enabled, the file will be opened in append mode. Otherwise the contents of the file, if any, will be truncated before any compressed data is written to it. =item * A Filehandle If C<$output> is a filehandle, the file pointer will be positioned to the end of the file via a call to C<seek> before any compressed data is written to it. Otherwise the file pointer will not be moved. =back This parameter defaults to 0. =item C<< Merge => 0|1 >> This option is used to compress input data and append it to an existing compressed data stream in C<$output>. The end result is a single compressed data stream stored in C<$output>. It is a fatal error to attempt to use this option when C<$output> is not an RFC 1952 data stream. There are a number of other limitations with the C<Merge> option: =over 5 =item 1 This module needs to have been built with zlib 1.2.1 or better to work. A fatal error will be thrown if C<Merge> is used with an older version of zlib. =item 2 If C<$output> is a file or a filehandle, it must be seekable. =back This parameter defaults to 0. =item -Level Defines the compression level used by zlib. The value should either be a number between 0 and 9 (0 means no compression and 9 is maximum compression), or one of the symbolic constants defined below. Z_NO_COMPRESSION Z_BEST_SPEED Z_BEST_COMPRESSION Z_DEFAULT_COMPRESSION The default is Z_DEFAULT_COMPRESSION. Note, these constants are not imported by C<IO::Compress::Gzip> by default. use IO::Compress::Gzip qw(:strategy); use IO::Compress::Gzip qw(:constants); use IO::Compress::Gzip qw(:all); =item -Strategy Defines the strategy used to tune the compression. Use one of the symbolic constants defined below. Z_FILTERED Z_HUFFMAN_ONLY Z_RLE Z_FIXED Z_DEFAULT_STRATEGY The default is Z_DEFAULT_STRATEGY. =item C<< Minimal => 0|1 >> If specified, this option will force the creation of the smallest possible compliant gzip header (which is exactly 10 bytes long) as defined in RFC 1952. See the section titled "Compliance" in RFC 1952 for a definition of the values used for the fields in the gzip header. All other parameters that control the content of the gzip header will be ignored if this parameter is set to 1. This parameter defaults to 0. =item C<< Comment => $comment >> Stores the contents of C<$comment> in the COMMENT field in the gzip header. By default, no comment field is written to the gzip file. If the C<-Strict> option is enabled, the comment can only consist of ISO 8859-1 characters plus line feed. If the C<-Strict> option is disabled, the comment field can contain any character except NULL. If any null characters are present, the field will be truncated at the first NULL. =item C<< Name => $string >> Stores the contents of C<$string> in the gzip NAME header field. If C<Name> is not specified, no gzip NAME field will be created. If the C<-Strict> option is enabled, C<$string> can only consist of ISO 8859-1 characters. If C<-Strict> is disabled, then C<$string> can contain any character except NULL. If any null characters are present, the field will be truncated at the first NULL. =item C<< Time => $number >> Sets the MTIME field in the gzip header to $number. This field defaults to the time the C<IO::Compress::Gzip> object was created if this option is not specified. =item C<< TextFlag => 0|1 >> This parameter controls the setting of the FLG.FTEXT bit in the gzip header. It is used to signal that the data stored in the gzip file/buffer is probably text. The default is 0. =item C<< HeaderCRC => 0|1 >> When true this parameter will set the FLG.FHCRC bit to 1 in the gzip header and set the CRC16 header field to the CRC of the complete gzip header except the CRC16 field itself. B<Note> that gzip files created with the C<HeaderCRC> flag set to 1 cannot be read by most, if not all, of the standard gunzip utilities, most notably gzip version 1.2.4. You should therefore avoid using this option if you want to maximize the portability of your gzip files. This parameter defaults to 0. =item C<< OS_Code => $value >> Stores C<$value> in the gzip OS header field. A number between 0 and 255 is valid. If not specified, this parameter defaults to the OS code of the Operating System this module was built on. The value 3 is used as a catch-all for all Unix variants and unknown Operating Systems. =item C<< ExtraField => $data >> This parameter allows additional metadata to be stored in the ExtraField in the gzip header. An RFC 1952 compliant ExtraField consists of zero or more subfields. Each subfield consists of a two byte header followed by the subfield data. The list of subfields can be supplied in any of the following formats -ExtraField => [$id1, $data1, $id2, $data2, ... ] -ExtraField => [ [$id1 => $data1], [$id2 => $data2], ... ] -ExtraField => { $id1 => $data1, $id2 => $data2, ... } Where C<$id1>, C<$id2> are two byte subfield ID's. The second byte of the ID cannot be 0, unless the C<Strict> option has been disabled. If you use the hash syntax, you have no control over the order in which the ExtraSubFields are stored, plus you cannot have SubFields with duplicate ID. Alternatively the list of subfields can by supplied as a scalar, thus -ExtraField => $rawdata If you use the raw format, and the C<Strict> option is enabled, C<IO::Compress::Gzip> will check that C<$rawdata> consists of zero or more conformant sub-fields. When C<Strict> is disabled, C<$rawdata> can consist of any arbitrary byte stream. The maximum size of the Extra Field 65535 bytes. =item C<< ExtraFlags => $value >> Sets the XFL byte in the gzip header to C<$value>. If this option is not present, the value stored in XFL field will be determined by the setting of the C<Level> option. If C<< Level => Z_BEST_SPEED >> has been specified then XFL is set to 2. If C<< Level => Z_BEST_COMPRESSION >> has been specified then XFL is set to 4. Otherwise XFL is set to 0. =item C<< Strict => 0|1 >> C<Strict> will optionally police the values supplied with other options to ensure they are compliant with RFC1952. This option is enabled by default. If C<Strict> is enabled the following behaviour will be policed: =over 5 =item * The value supplied with the C<Name> option can only contain ISO 8859-1 characters. =item * The value supplied with the C<Comment> option can only contain ISO 8859-1 characters plus line-feed. =item * The values supplied with the C<-Name> and C<-Comment> options cannot contain multiple embedded nulls. =item * If an C<ExtraField> option is specified and it is a simple scalar, it must conform to the sub-field structure as defined in RFC 1952. =item * If an C<ExtraField> option is specified the second byte of the ID will be checked in each subfield to ensure that it does not contain the reserved value 0x00. =back When C<Strict> is disabled the following behaviour will be policed: =over 5 =item * The value supplied with C<-Name> option can contain any character except NULL. =item * The value supplied with C<-Comment> option can contain any character except NULL. =item * The values supplied with the C<-Name> and C<-Comment> options can contain multiple embedded nulls. The string written to the gzip header will consist of the characters up to, but not including, the first embedded NULL. =item * If an C<ExtraField> option is specified and it is a simple scalar, the structure will not be checked. The only error is if the length is too big. =item * The ID header in an C<ExtraField> sub-field can consist of any two bytes. =back =back =head2 Examples TODO =head1 Methods =head2 print Usage is $z->print($data) print $z $data Compresses and outputs the contents of the C<$data> parameter. This has the same behaviour as the C<print> built-in. Returns true if successful. =head2 printf Usage is $z->printf($format, $data) printf $z $format, $data Compresses and outputs the contents of the C<$data> parameter. Returns true if successful. =head2 syswrite Usage is $z->syswrite $data $z->syswrite $data, $length $z->syswrite $data, $length, $offset Compresses and outputs the contents of the C<$data> parameter. Returns the number of uncompressed bytes written, or C<undef> if unsuccessful. =head2 write Usage is $z->write $data $z->write $data, $length $z->write $data, $length, $offset Compresses and outputs the contents of the C<$data> parameter. Returns the number of uncompressed bytes written, or C<undef> if unsuccessful. =head2 flush Usage is $z->flush; $z->flush($flush_type); Flushes any pending compressed data to the output file/buffer. This method takes an optional parameter, C<$flush_type>, that controls how the flushing will be carried out. By default the C<$flush_type> used is C<Z_FINISH>. Other valid values for C<$flush_type> are C<Z_NO_FLUSH>, C<Z_SYNC_FLUSH>, C<Z_FULL_FLUSH> and C<Z_BLOCK>. It is strongly recommended that you only set the C<flush_type> parameter if you fully understand the implications of what it does - overuse of C<flush> can seriously degrade the level of compression achieved. See the C<zlib> documentation for details. Returns true on success. =head2 tell Usage is $z->tell() tell $z Returns the uncompressed file offset. =head2 eof Usage is $z->eof(); eof($z); Returns true if the C<close> method has been called. =head2 seek $z->seek($position, $whence); seek($z, $position, $whence); Provides a sub-set of the C<seek> functionality, with the restriction that it is only legal to seek forward in the output file/buffer. It is a fatal error to attempt to seek backward. Empty parts of the file/buffer will have NULL (0x00) bytes written to them. The C<$whence> parameter takes one the usual values, namely SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR or SEEK_END. Returns 1 on success, 0 on failure. =head2 binmode Usage is $z->binmode binmode $z ; This is a noop provided for completeness. =head2 opened $z->opened() Returns true if the object currently refers to a opened file/buffer. =head2 autoflush my $prev = $z->autoflush() my $prev = $z->autoflush(EXPR) If the C<$z> object is associated with a file or a filehandle, this method returns the current autoflush setting for the underlying filehandle. If C<EXPR> is present, and is non-zero, it will enable flushing after every write/print operation. If C<$z> is associated with a buffer, this method has no effect and always returns C<undef>. B<Note> that the special variable C<$|> B<cannot> be used to set or retrieve the autoflush setting. =head2 input_line_number $z->input_line_number() $z->input_line_number(EXPR) This method always returns C<undef> when compressing. =head2 fileno $z->fileno() fileno($z) If the C<$z> object is associated with a file or a filehandle, C<fileno> will return the underlying file descriptor. Once the C<close> method is called C<fileno> will return C<undef>. If the C<$z> object is associated with a buffer, this method will return C<undef>. =head2 close $z->close() ; close $z ; Flushes any pending compressed data and then closes the output file/buffer. For most versions of Perl this method will be automatically invoked if the IO::Compress::Gzip object is destroyed (either explicitly or by the variable with the reference to the object going out of scope). The exceptions are Perl versions 5.005 through 5.00504 and 5.8.0. In these cases, the C<close> method will be called automatically, but not until global destruction of all live objects when the program is terminating. Therefore, if you want your scripts to be able to run on all versions of Perl, you should call C<close> explicitly and not rely on automatic closing. Returns true on success, otherwise 0. If the C<AutoClose> option has been enabled when the IO::Compress::Gzip object was created, and the object is associated with a file, the underlying file will also be closed. =head2 newStream([OPTS]) Usage is $z->newStream( [OPTS] ) Closes the current compressed data stream and starts a new one. OPTS consists of any of the options that are available when creating the C<$z> object. See the L</"Constructor Options"> section for more details. =head2 deflateParams Usage is $z->deflateParams TODO =head1 Importing A number of symbolic constants are required by some methods in C<IO::Compress::Gzip>. None are imported by default. =over 5 =item :all Imports C<gzip>, C<$GzipError> and all symbolic constants that can be used by C<IO::Compress::Gzip>. Same as doing this use IO::Compress::Gzip qw(gzip $GzipError :constants) ; =item :constants Import all symbolic constants. Same as doing this use IO::Compress::Gzip qw(:flush :level :strategy) ; =item :flush These symbolic constants are used by the C<flush> method. Z_NO_FLUSH Z_PARTIAL_FLUSH Z_SYNC_FLUSH Z_FULL_FLUSH Z_FINISH Z_BLOCK =item :level These symbolic constants are used by the C<Level> option in the constructor. Z_NO_COMPRESSION Z_BEST_SPEED Z_BEST_COMPRESSION Z_DEFAULT_COMPRESSION =item :strategy These symbolic constants are used by the C<Strategy> option in the constructor.
