Suppose you have a gzip in base64 representation that contains a text file, such as XML. This example shows how to decompress and access the string. Node.js

function chilkatExample() {

    var success = false;

    // This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    var gzip = new chilkat.Gzip();

    var gzipBase64 = "H4sIAAAAAAAE ... X6aZjXO3EwAA";

    var bd = new chilkat.BinData();
    success = bd.AppendEncoded(gzipBase64,"base64");

    success = gzip.UncompressBd(bd);
    if (success !== true) {
        console.log(gzip.LastErrorText);
        return;
    }

    var strXml = bd.GetString("utf-8");
    console.log("XML:");
    console.log(strXml);
