Python generators are cool. The compress() function returns a python generator with the gzipped data.
Install via pip:
$ pip install gengzipinput = [b'123', b'45']
# compress() returns a python generator object
# compresslevel defaults to 6
for compressed in gengzip.compress(input, compresslevel=6):
print compressedgzip data and write to file:
input = [b'123', b'45']
with open('output.gz', 'w') as f:
for compressed in gengzip.compress(input):
f.write(compressed)MIT
