cant read .gz file from AWS S3 using AWS Lambda

i'm trying to read a .gz file from S3 using AWS Lambda.

when i try to unzip the file using gzip, i get OSError: Not a gzipped file (b'PK') error.

Here is the code...

retr = s3_client.get_object(Bucket=bucket, Key=key)
print(retr)
bytestream = BytesIO(retr['Body'].read())
print(bytestream)
got_text = GzipFile(mode='rb', fileobj=bytestream).read().decode('utf-8')
print(got_text)

Here is the response of the retr file.

{  
   'ResponseMetadata':{  
      'RequestId':'aklsfjdlskfj',
      'HostId':'kajsdfhdkjfh/+r+i0OLx/adlksfjd/aksfh=',
      'HTTPStatusCode':200,
      'HTTPHeaders':{  
         'x-amz-id-2':'alsdkfjslkfjsalfjflkj/+r+i0OLx/asklfjslk/r9eTM=',
         'x-amz-request-id':'hgfhgf',
         'date':'Sun, 21 Jan 2018 08:35:28 GMT',
         'last-modified':'Sun, 21 Jan 2018 08:32:34 GMT',
         'etag':'"aksjdfhdskjfhfkjhf"',
         'accept-ranges':'bytes',
         'content-type':'application/x-gzip',
         'content-length':'2825',
         'server':'AmazonS3'
      },
      'RetryAttempts':0
   },
   'AcceptRanges':'bytes',
   'LastModified':datetime.datetime(2018,
   1,
   21,
   8,
   32,
   34,
   tzinfo=tzutc()),
   'ContentLength':2825,
   'ETag':'"akjsfhksdjfhsdkfj"',
   'ContentType':'application/x-gzip',
   'Metadata':{  

   },
   'Body':<botocore.response.StreamingBody object at adsfdsf08>
}

How to get that .gz file unzipped? i want to unzip it and read the .txt file in that .gz file. Can anyone guide me?

First make sure its .gz or .zip, if .zip, instead of gzip use zipfile. 

import zipfile
Fileobj=zipfile.ZipFile(....)

This worked for me on AWS Lambda

The file you are trying to decompress is not a gzip file. It's a ZIP file.

Here's what happens why I try to use the Python gzip module to decompress a ZIP file:

Python 3.6.4 (v3.6.4:d48eceb, Dec 19 2017, 06:04:45) [MSC v.1900 32 bit (Intel)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import gzip
>>> with gzip.open("ResultList_example2.zip", "rb") as f: data = f.read()
...
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "C:\Python36\lib\gzip.py", line 276, in read
    return self._buffer.read(size)
  File "C:\Python36\lib\gzip.py", line 463, in read
    if not self._read_gzip_header():
  File "C:\Python36\lib\gzip.py", line 411, in _read_gzip_header
    raise OSError('Not a gzipped file (%r)' % magic)
OSError: Not a gzipped file (b'PK')

You will need to use the zipfile module instead.
