The zlib.createUnzip() method is an inbuilt application programming interface of the Zlib module which is used to create a new Unzip object.
Syntax:
zlib.createUnzip( options )
Parameters: This method accepts single parameter options which is an optional parameter that holds the zlib options.
Return Value: It returns a new Unzip object.
The below examples illustrate the use of zlib.createUnzip() method in Node.js:
Example 1: In this example, we will see the use of zlib.createUnzip() method.
// Node.js program to demonstrate the // createUnzip() method // Including zlib module const zlib = require( 'zlib' );
// Calling gzip function to compress data zlib.gzip( 'Nidhi Singh' , function (err, data) {
if (err) {
return console.log( 'err' , err);
}
// Calling createUnzip method
// to decompress the data again
const unzip = zlib.createUnzip();
unzip.write(data);
unzip.on( 'data' , function (data) {
console.log(data.toString());
});
}); |
Output:
Nidhi Singh
Example 2: In this example, we will see the use of the createUnzip() method.
// Node.js program to demonstrate the // createUnzip() method // Including zlib module const zlib = require( 'zlib' );
// Calling gzip function to compress data zlib.gzip( 'Nidhi Singh' , function (err, data) {
if (err) {
return console.log( 'err' , err);
}
// Calling createUnzip method
// to decompress the data again
const unzip = zlib.createUnzip();
unzip.write(data);
unzip.on( 'data' , function (data) {
console.log(data.toString( 'hex' ));
});
}); |
