// Node.js program to demonstrate the   
// createInflateRaw() method
 
// Including zlib module
const zlib = require('zlib');
 
// Calling deflateRaw function to compress data
zlib.deflateRaw('Decompressed..', function (err, data) {
    if (err) {
        return console.log('err', err);
    }
 
    // Calling createInflateRaw method
    // to decompress the data again
    const gunzip = zlib.createInflateRaw();
    gunzip.write(data);
    gunzip.on('data', function (data) {
        console.log(data.toString());
    });
});


Output:

Decompressed..

Example 2:

// Node.js program to demonstrate the   
// createInflateRaw() method
 
// Including zlib module
const zlib = require('zlib');
 
// Calling deflateRaw function to compress data
zlib.deflateRaw('Decompressed..', function (err, data) {
    if (err) {
        return console.log('err', err);
    }
 
    // Calling createInflateRaw method
    // to decompress the data again
    const gunzip = zlib.createInflateRaw();
    gunzip.write(data);
