If you try to decode a GZIP response without decoding, you will have seen this error
XMLReader::read(): /var/www/html/:1: parser error : Document is empty {"exception":"[object] (ErrorException(code: 0): XMLReader::read(): /var/www/html/:1: parser error : Document is empty at
To decode a XML ZIP response in Guzzle, you can do this as recommended by the documentation
// Request gzipped data, but do not decode it while downloading
$client->request('GET', 'foo.xml.gz', [
'headers' => ['Accept-Encoding' => 'gzip'],
'decode_content' => false
]);
When set to a string, the bytes of a response are decoded and the string value provided to the decode_content option is passed as the Accept-Encoding header of the request.
// Pass "gzip" as the Accept-Encoding header.
$client->request('GET', 'foo.xml.gz', ['decode_content' => 'gzip']);
Laravel provides useful header methods via its HTTP client.
$response = Http::withOptions([
'decode_content' => 'gzip'
])->get('foo.xml.gz');
or using headers, this can be
$response = Http::accept('gzip')
->get('foo.xml.gz');
