Method Details

init(self, wbits=15)
(Constructor)

Create Transformer object.

Parameters:

wbits (number) - The absolute value of wbits is the base two logarithm of the size of the history buffer (the ``window size'') used when compressing data. Its absolute value should be between 8 and 15 for the most recent versions of the zlib library, larger values resulting in better compression at the expense of greater memory usage. The default value is 15. When wbits is negative, the standard gzip header is suppressed; this is an undocumented feature of the zlib library, used for compatibility with unzip's compression file format.
