This provides an all js version of deflate. The goal is to provide a similar api to node's built in zlib. This provides a sync deflate that node native does not. Contributions welcome!
var jszlib = require('jszlib'),
jszlib.deflate('aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaabbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb',function(error,buffer){
console.log(Buffer.toString('base64'));
});
npm install jszlib
jszlib.deflate(buffer, [options], callback)
jszlib.deflateSync(buffer, [options]);
-
buffer
- this can be a String or node Buffer object.
-
options.
- right now no options need to be passed in from the outside.
-
callback
-
for non sync the buffer is passed as the data argument to the callback.
callback(error,buffer)
-
most of the code is by imaya https://github.com/imaya/CanvasTool.PngEncoder who wrote a really cool js png encoder. Thanks!! I ported this to node requires and updated the interface to be more nodey.
