如何使用 Java 代码 GZip 解压缩压缩的 String 数据

Question

I have some code to uncompress gzip a compressedString as below:

public static String decompress(String compressedString) throws IOException {
        byte[] byteCompressed = compressedString.getBytes(StandardCharsets.UTF_8)
        final StringBuilder outStr = new StringBuilder();
        if ((byteCompressed == null) || (byteCompressed.length == 0)) {
            return "";
        }
        if (isCompressed(byteCompressed)) {
            final GZIPInputStream gis = new GZIPInputStream(new ByteArrayInputStream(byteCompressed));
            final BufferedReader bufferedReader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(gis, "UTF-8"));

            String line;
            while ((line = bufferedReader.readLine()) != null) {
                outStr.append(line);
            }
        } else {
            outStr.append(byteCompressed);
        }
        return outStr.toString();
    }

public static boolean isCompressed(final byte[] compressed) {
        return (compressed[0] == (byte) (GZIPInputStream.GZIP_MAGIC)) && (compressed[1] == (byte) (GZIPInputStream.GZIP_MAGIC >> 8));
    }

I use this code to uncompress a String as below: H4sIAAAAAAAAAHNJLQtJLS4BALwLiloHAAAA

But this code uncompress a unexpected String although I can uncompress online normally in the web

Anyone can help me give the right uncompress code? Thanks

Your string is base64 encoded gzip data, so you need to base64 decode it, instead of trying to encode it as UTF-8 bytes.

String input = "H4sIAAAAAAAAAHNJLQtJLS4BALwLiloHAAAA";
byte[] byteCompressed = Base64.getDecoder().decode(input);
// ... rest of your code
