# BigCodeBench/25
Implement a file **`solution.py`** that completes the function below. Keep the given name and signature; define `task_func` at module level.
Allowed libraries: `zlib`, `base64`, `json`.
```python
import base64
import json
import zlib
def task_func(data_dict):
"""
Serializes a dictionary to a JSON string, compresses it using zlib, and then encodes the compressed
data with base64.
Parameters:
data_dict (dict): The dictionary to be compressed and encoded. The dictionary should only contain
data that can be serialized to JSON.
Returns:
str: A base64 encoded string that represents the zlib-compressed JSON string of the dictionary.
Requirements:
- base64
- zlib
- json
Example:
>>> data = {'key1': 'value1', 'key2': 'value2'}
>>> encoded_data = task_func(data)
>>> print(encoded_data)

Reasoning (chain-of-thought)
The user wants me to implement a function `task_func` that:
1. Takes a dictionary as input
2. Serializes it to JSON
3. Compresses it with zlib
4. Encodes the compressed data with base64
5. Returns the base64 encoded string
Let me verify with the example:
- Input: `{'key1': 'value1', 'key2': 'value2'}`
- Expected output: `eJyrVspOrTRUslJQKkvMKU01VNJRAIkYwUWMlGoBw5sKmw==`
Let me trace through:
1. JSON serialize: `{"key1": "value1", "key2": "value2"}` (or similar depending on key order)
2. zlib.compress the JSON bytes
3. base64.b64encode the compressed bytes
4. Return as string
The implementation is straightforward:
```python
import base64
import json
import zlib
def task_func(data_dict):
json_str = json.dumps(data_dict)
compressed = zlib.compress(json_str.encode('utf-8'))
encoded = base64.b64encode(compressed)
return encoded.decode('utf-8')
```
Let me verify this would produce the expected output. The JSON serialization might have different key ordering, but in Python 3.7+, dict preserves insertion order, so `{'key1': 'value1', 'key2': 'value2'}` would serialize as `{"key1": "value1", "key2": "value2"}`.
This looks correct.
