is an Elixir library that provides a simple wrapper around the standard Erlang :zlib module to handle Gzip compression and decompression. It is designed to offer a more "Elixir-native" interface for working with Gzip data, making it easier to integrate into modern Elixir projects. Key Features
: Clearer function names and standard Elixir error handling (e.g., returning :ok, data or :error, reason ).
For more advanced use cases like stream processing or custom compression levels, you can refer to the official documentation on HexDocs . EXGzip
: Designed to work seamlessly with Elixir's pipe operator ( |> ), allowing for clean and readable data processing pipelines.
While the underlying Erlang :zlib module is powerful, its API can be low-level and cumbersome for developers accustomed to Elixir's syntax. bridges this gap by providing: is an Elixir library that provides a simple
: Reduces boilerplate code required to initialize and control zlib streams manually.
: It follows standard library guidelines for naming and documentation, ensuring it feels consistent with other packages in the Hex ecosystem . Getting Started For more advanced use cases like stream processing
: Easily compress strings or binaries into Gzip format and decompress Gzip data back into its original form.
