Gzip File Compression Utility 📦

A simple command-line utility written in Rust for compressing files using Gzip compression.

Usage 🚀

Ensure you have Rust installed, and then run the following command to build the project:

cargo build --release

After building, you can use the utility as follows:

./gzip-compressor source_file target_file

Replace source_file with the path to the file you want to compress and target_file with the desired output path.

Example 🌐

./gzip-compressor input.txt compressed_output.gz

Requirements 🛠️

• Rust (https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install)

How it Works 🤖

1. Reads the contents of the source file.
2. Compresses the data using Gzip compression.
3. Writes the compressed data to the specified target file.

Performance Metrics ⏱️

The utility provides information about the source and target file lengths, as well as the elapsed time during compression.

Source len: <source_file_length>
Target len: <compressed_output_length>
Elapsed: <elapsed_time>
