API
decompress(input, [output], [options])
Returns a Promise for an array of files in the following format:
{
data: Buffer,
mode: Number,
mtime: String,
path: String,
type: String
}
input
Type: string
Buffer
File to decompress.
output
Type: string
Output directory.
options
filter
Type: Function
Filter out files before extracting. E.g:
decompress('unicorn.zip', 'dist', {
filter: file => path.extname(file.path) !== '.exe'
}).then(files => {
console.log('done!');
});
Note that in the current implementation, filter
is only applied after fully reading all files from the archive in memory. Do not rely on this option to limit the amount of memory used by decompress
to the size of the files included by filter
. decompress
will read the entire compressed file into memory regardless.
map
Type: Function
Map files before extracting: E.g:
decompress('unicorn.zip', 'dist', {
map: file => {
file.path = `unicorn-${file.path}`;
return file;
}
}).then(files => {
console.log('done!');
});
plugins
Type: Array
Default: [decompressTar(), decompressTarbz2(), decompressTargz(), decompressUnzip()]
Array of plugins to use.
strip
Type: number
Default: 0
Remove leading directory components from extracted files.
