type error =
  1. | Truncated of string

    Extracted size is greater than the allowed maximum size

    *)
  2. | Compression_error of string
    (*

    zlib error

    *)

Possible error cases

val compress : ?level:int -> ?header:bool -> string -> string

compress ?level ?header input will return a zlib-compressed representation of input.

val decompress : ?header:bool -> ?max_size:int -> string -> (string, [> `Zlib of error ]) Stdlib.result

decompress ?header ?max_size input will return a decompressed representation of input.

  • returns

    Error `Zlib Compression_error message if Zlib.Error was raised while inflating input.

  • returns

    Error `Zlib Truncated incomplete if input inflates to more than max_size bytes. incomplete contains less than max_size bytes of inflated content from input.
