Use compressjs in a browser #3

Hi,

I want to use your module in a browser, but I could not find any example how to do this. Is there one?

Best, Jochen

It should be as simple as 'volo add cscott/compressjs' (see https://github.com/volojs/volo ), but I have not had time recently to hack on the browser-based project for which I wrote compressjs (that would be https://github.com/cscott/nell-wikipedia ) so I can't guarantee that will work perfectly yet. Patches welcome, though, and if you're able to wait I expect to do some nell-wikipedia hacking in the next two weeks, so any bugs in browser integration ought to be squashed then.

I can wait. I the meantime I use LZW.

I wonder if browser integration has gotten any attention in the last nine months?

Patches welcome!

I too would like to see this be browserified!

cscott commented 1 year ago

It's been nine years now (!). I've been working server side for the past decade or so. Patches eagerly welcome, as I'm not realistically going to get around to this myself.

Sadly I don't have the technical skills needed for this

Hi! Beautiful this project! Quick question: what is the use case if it can't be used in a browser? For example, can I try and encode an Expressjs response with this? Will I be able to decode from, say, a React frontend?

Thanks in advance for your reply!
