Utilities to compress and uncompress for Deno!
tar
deflate
gzip
tgz
zip
If you want to read and write files, you need the following permissions:
--allow-read --allow-write
tar
v0.5.5
Use @std/tar
instead of @std/archive
due to deprecation
If you want to use the old API, you can do it
import { tar } from "jsr:@deno-library/compress/tar_archive/mod.ts";
// JSR
import { tar } from "jsr:@deno-library/compress";
// or
// import { tar } from "jsr:@deno-library/compress@0.5.5";
// or
// import { tar } from "https://deno.land/x/compress@v0.5.5/mod.ts";
// or only import tar
// import { tar } from "https://deno.land/x/compress@v0.5.5/tar/mod.ts";
export interface compressInterface {
excludeSrc?: boolean; // does not contain the src directory
debug?: boolean; // list the files and folders
}
export interface uncompressInterface {
debug?: boolean; // list the files and folders
}
tar.compress(src, dest, options?: compressInterface): Promise<void>;
tar.uncompress(src, dest, options?: uncompressInterface): Promise<void>;
// JSR
import { tar } from "jsr:@deno-library/compress";
// or
// import { tar } from "https://deno.land/x/compress@v0.5.5/mod.ts";
// compress folder
await tar.compress("./test", "./test.tar");
// compress folder, exclude src directory
await tar.compress("./test", "./test.tar", { excludeSrc: true });
// compress file
await tar.compress("./test.txt", "./test.tar");
// uncompress
await tar.uncompress("./test.tar", "./dest");
deflate
This library contains a pure TypeScript implementation of deflate, and you can use deflate on its own:
// JSR
import {
deflate,
/** Compress data using deflate, and do not append a zlib header. */
deflateRaw,
inflate,
inflateRaw,
} from "jsr:@deno-library/compress";
// or
// import { deflate, inflate, deflateRaw, inflateRaw } from "https://deno.land/x/compress@v0.5.5/mod.ts";
// or only import deflate, inflate, deflateRaw, inflateRaw
// import { deflate, inflate, deflateRaw, inflateRaw } from "https://deno.land/x/compress@v0.5.5/zlib/mod.ts";
const str = "hello world!";
const bytes = new TextEncoder().encode(str);
// with zlib header
const compressed = deflate(bytes);
const decompressed = inflate(compressed);
// no zlib header
const compressed = deflateRaw(bytes);
const decompressed = inflateRaw(compressed);
gzip
interface GzipOptions {
level: number;
timestamp?: number;
name?: string;
}
gzip(bytes: Uint8Array, options?:GzipOptions): Uint8Array;
gunzip(bytes: Uint8Array): Uint8Array;
gzipFile(src: string, dest: string): Promise<void>;
gunzipFile(src: string, dest: string): Promise<void>;
class GzipStream {
compress(src: string, dest: string): Promise<void>;
uncompress(src: string, dest: string): Promise<void>;
on(event: "progress", listener: (percent: string) => void): this;
}
Let's compress and uncompress a file. (gzip
only supports compressing
and decompressing a single file.)
stream mode\ Useful for reading and writing large files.
import { GzipStream } from "jsr:@deno-library/compress";
// or
// import { GzipStream } from "https://deno.land/x/compress@v0.5.5/mod.ts";
// or only import GzipStream
// import { GzipStream } from "https://deno.land/x/compress@v0.5.5/gzip/mod.ts";
const gzip = new GzipStream();
gzip.on("progress", (progress: string) => {
console.log(progress); // 0.00% => 100.00%
});
await gzip.compress("./big.mkv", "./big.mkv.gz");
await gzip.uncompress("./big.mkv.gz", "./big.mkv");
no stream mode\
(This is loading all data into memory, so we can't get a progress
event.)
import { gunzipFile, gzipFile } from "jsr:@deno-library/compress";
// or
// import { gunzipFile, gzipFile } from "https://deno.land/x/compress@v0.5.5/mod.ts";
// or only import gzipFile, gunzipFile
// import { gzipFile, gunzipFile } from "https://deno.land/x/compress@v0.5.5/gzip/mod.ts";
await gzipFile("./deno.txt", "./deno.txt.gz");
await gunzipFile("./deno.txt.gz", "./deno.txt");
gzip
a string or a byte array
This is a pure TypeScript implementation, almost as fast as a Rust implementation.
import { gunzip, gzip } from "jsr:@deno-library/compress";
// or
// import { gunzip, gzip } from "https://deno.land/x/compress@v0.5.5/mod.ts";
// or only import gzip, gunzip
// import { gzip, gunzip } from "https://deno.land/x/compress@v0.5.5/zlib/mod.ts";
// gzip
const bytes = new TextEncoder().encode("hello");
const compressed = gzip(bytes);
// gunzip
const decompressed = gunzip(compressed);
tgz
v0.5.5
Use @std/tar
instead of @std/archive
due to deprecation
If you want to use the old API, you can do it
import { tgz } from "jsr:@deno-library/compress/tgz_archive/mod.ts";
import { tgz } from "jsr:@deno-library/compress";
// or
// import { tgz } from "https://deno.land/x/compress@v0.5.5/mod.ts";
// or only import tgz
// import { tgz } from "https://deno.land/x/compress@v0.5.5/tgz/mod.ts";
export interface compressInterface {
excludeSrc?: boolean; // does not contain the src directory
debug?: boolean; // list the files and folders
}
export interface uncompressInterface {
debug?: boolean; // list the files and folders
}
tgz.compress(src, dest, options?: compressInterface): Promise<void>;
tgz.uncompress(src, dest, options?: uncompressInterface): Promise<void>;
import { tgz } from "jsr:@deno-library/compress";
// or
// import { tgz } from "https://deno.land/x/compress@v0.5.5/mod.ts";
// compress folder
await tgz.compress("./test", "./test.tar.gz");
// compress folder, exclude src directory
await tgz.compress("./test", "./test.tar.gz", { excludeSrc: true });
// compress file
await tgz.compress("./test.txt", "./test.tar.gz");
// uncompress
await tgz.uncompress("./test.tar.gz", "./dest");
zip
import { zip } from "jsr:@deno-library/compress";
// or
// import { zip } from "https://deno.land/x/compress@v0.5.5/mod.ts";
// or only import zip
// import { zip } from "https://deno.land/x/compress@v0.5.5/zip/mod.ts";
export interface compressInterface {
excludeSrc?: boolean; // does not contain the src directory
debug?: boolean; // list the files and folders
}
export interface uncompressInterface {
debug?: boolean; // list the files and folders
}
zip.compress(src, dest, options?: compressInterface): Promise<void>;
zip.uncompress(src, dest, options?: uncompressInterface): Promise<void>;
import { zip } from "jsr:@deno-library/compress";
// or
// import { zip } from "https://deno.land/x/compress@v0.5.5/mod.ts";
// compress folder
await zip.compress("./test", "./test.tar.gz");
// compress folder, exclude src directory
await zip.compress("./test", "./test.tar.gz", { excludeSrc: true });
// compress file
await zip.compress("./test.txt", "./test.tar.gz");
// uncompress
await zip.uncompress("./test.tar.gz", "./dest");
