# unzip [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/EvanOxfeld/node-unzip.png)](https://travis-ci.org/EvanOxfeld/node-unzip)
|
|
|
|
Streaming cross-platform unzip tool written in node.js.
|
|
|
|
Unzip provides simple APIs similar to [node-tar](https://github.com/isaacs/node-tar) for parsing and extracting zip files.
|
|
There are no added compiled dependencies - inflation is handled by node.js's built in zlib support. Unzip is also an
|
|
example use case of [node-pullstream](https://github.com/EvanOxfeld/node-pullstream).
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ npm install unzip
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Quick Examples
|
|
|
|
### Extract to a directory
|
|
```javascript
|
|
fs.createReadStream('path/to/archive.zip').pipe(unzip.Extract({ path: 'output/path' }));
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Extract emits the 'close' event once the zip's contents have been fully extracted to disk.
|
|
|
|
### Parse zip file contents
|
|
|
|
Process each zip file entry or pipe entries to another stream.
|
|
|
|
__Important__: If you do not intend to consume an entry stream's raw data, call autodrain() to dispose of the entry's
|
|
contents. Otherwise you risk running out of memory.
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
fs.createReadStream('path/to/archive.zip')
|
|
.pipe(unzip.Parse())
|
|
.on('entry', function (entry) {
|
|
var fileName = entry.path;
|
|
var type = entry.type; // 'Directory' or 'File'
|
|
var size = entry.size;
|
|
if (fileName === "this IS the file I'm looking for") {
|
|
entry.pipe(fs.createWriteStream('output/path'));
|
|
} else {
|
|
entry.autodrain();
|
|
}
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or pipe the output of unzip.Parse() to fstream
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
var readStream = fs.createReadStream('path/to/archive.zip');
|
|
var writeStream = fstream.Writer('output/path');
|
|
|
|
readStream
|
|
.pipe(unzip.Parse())
|
|
.pipe(writeStream)
|
|
```
