Or, alternatively from a file already downloaded.

I need more parsers! Pull requests welcome for anything even moderately useful, you can look at the code for the languages parser to see how simple it is, the JSON parsing is already taken care of.
All parsers are streams and expect to have a JSONStream piped to them. If you want to handle the acquisition yourself it would look like this.
request(url)
.pipe(zlib.createGunzip())
.pipe(jsonstream.parse())
.pipe(githubarchive.languages(function (e, langs) {
// do stuff
}))
Or, alternatively from a file.
fs.createFileStream(path)
.pipe(zlib.createGunzip())
.pipe(jsonstream.parse())
.pipe(githubarchive.languages(function (e, langs) {
// do stuff
}))
