Node.js zlib.constants Property

Read

Discuss

The zlib.constants property is used to yields an object listing Zlib-related constants.

Syntax:

zlib.constants

Return Value: It returns all the Zlib-related constants.

Below examples illustrate the use of zlib.constants property in Node.js:

Example 1:

// Node.js program to demonstrate      
// zlib.constants property 
// Including zlib module 
const zlib = require("zlib"); 
  
// Creating a buffer 
const buffer = Buffer.from('eJzT0yMA', 'base64'); 
  
// Calling unzip method 
zlib.unzip( 
  buffer, 
  
  // Using a Zlib constant 
  { finishFlush: zlib.constants.Z_SYNC_FLUSH }, 
  
  (err, buffer) => { 
  
    if (!err) { 
  
      console.log(buffer.toString()); 
    }  
    else
     { 
      console.log(err); 
    } 
  }); 
  
 // Calling "constants" property of zlib 
 zlib.constants; 

Output:
