NVHGzipFile

This is an ObjC library for gzipping/ungzipping that directly manipulates files. It isn't implemented as a category on NSData (unlike GZIP or Godzippa) so the full file doesn't have to be first loaded into memory.

Version 1.1.1 is the latest supporting iOS 7.

Usage

Asynchronous

Extract Gzip file

    [[[NVHGzipFile alloc]
        initWithPath:gzipFilePath]
        inflateToPath:destinationFilePath completion:^(NSError *error) {
            [self completeActionWithError:error];
        }];

Gzip file

    [[[NVHGzipFile alloc]
        initWithPath:sourceFilePath]
        deflateFromPath:destinationGzipFilePath completion:^(NSError *error) {
            [self completeActionWithError:error];
        }];

Synchronous

Extract Gzip file

    NSError *error = nil;
    BOOL success = [[[NVHGzipFile alloc]
        initWithPath:gzipFilePath]
        inflateToPath:destinationFilePath error:&error];

Gzip file

    NSError *error = nil;
    BOOL success = [[[NVHGzipFile alloc]
        initWithPath:sourceFilePath]
        deflateFromPath:destinationGzipFilePath error:&error];
