> gzip data compression from Swift, OS X & Linux ready

# Usage

Works on `Data` or anything [`Gzippable`](https://github.com/czechboy0/gzip/blob/master/Sources/gzip/gzip%2BData.swift#L42-46)

```swift

let myData = ... //Data

let myGzipCompressedData = try myData.gzipCompressed() //Data

...

let myGzipUncompressedData = try myGzipCompressedData.gzipUncompressed() //Data

... //PROFIT!

```

Middleware to suport gzipped content in `HTTPClient`.

```swift

let request = ... //Request

let response = try client.request(request, middleware: [GzipMiddleware()])

 ```

 

 Please note, that `GzipMiddleware` should be placed at the end of a chain:

 

```swift

let response = try client.request(request, middleware: [ContentNegotiationMiddleware(mediaTypes: [.json], mode: .client), GzipMiddleware()])

```

# Details

As this library uses a SwiftPM-compatible source of [zlib](https://github.com/Zewo/zlib), you don't need to install anything manually before using it. Even though both OS X and Linux have a preinstalled version of `zlib`, unfortunately each has a different version, making its potential use inconsistent. In our case everything is compiled from source, so you can be sure to get the same results everywhere. :100:

# Installation

## Swift Package Manager

```swift

.Package(url: "https://github.com/Zewo/gzip.git", majorVersion: 0, minor: 8)

```
