Compress and restore text data with gzip.

1Prepare compressed text for an API fixture
2Decode a Base64 gzip payload from a log

4Compare the text encoding observed by a proxy, gateway, and application service
5Generate or restore an encoding format required by a legacy system

Guidance

Get reliable results

  1. 1Use Base64 text output when the result must pass through JSON or logs
  2. 2Keep very large files in a streaming CLI workflow
  3. 3Confirm the original text is UTF-8
The tool represents gzip bytes as Base64 text and is not a streaming compressor for arbitrary large files.
