  // The script will create a new file ./.modules folder
  // The output file will be: ./.modules/demo.tgz
  await tarNpmFolderSingleFile('demo')
})()

Decompression: If node_modules are stored as multiple compressed files

import {unzipNpmModules} from 'tar-npm-modules'
;(async () => {
  const path = './custom_node_modules'
  unzipNpmModules(path)
})()

Decompression: If node_modules are stored in the signle file

import {unzipSingleFile} from 'tar-npm-modules'

  const path = './custom_node_modules'
  await unzipSingleFile(fileLocation, path)
})()
