@push.rocks/smartarchive

work with archives

Install

To install @push.rocks/smartarchive, you need to use npm or yarn. Run either of the following commands in your project directory:

npm install @push.rocks/smartarchive --save

or if you prefer yarn:

yarn add @push.rocks/smartarchive

This will add @push.rocks/smartarchive to your project's dependencies.

Usage

@push.rocks/smartarchive is a powerful module designed to simplify the process of working with archive files such as zip, tar, gzip, and more. It provides an easy-to-use API for extracting, creating, and analyzing archives, making it an ideal choice for projects that require manipulation of archive files.

Getting Started

First, import SmartArchive from @push.rocks/smartarchive using ESM syntax:

import { SmartArchive } from '@push.rocks/smartarchive';

Extracting Archive Files

To extract an archive file, you can use SmartArchive.fromArchiveUrl, SmartArchive.fromArchiveFile, or SmartArchive.fromArchiveStream methods depending on the source of your archive. Here's an example of extracting an archive from a URL:

async function extractArchiveFromURL() {
  const url = 'https://example.com/archive.zip';
  const targetDir = '/path/to/extract';

  const archive = await SmartArchive.fromArchiveUrl(url);
  await archive.exportToFs(targetDir);

  console.log('Archive extracted successfully.');
}

Creating Archive Files

Creating archive files such as zip or tar.gz is straightforward with smartarchive. At the moment, you'll prepare the contents programmatically and then compress them. Detailed support for creating archives will be covered in future updates.

Analyzing Archive Files

Analyzing the content of archives without extracting them can be useful in various scenarios, such as when you need to inspect the archive's content before deciding to extract it. Here's how you might analyze an archive:

async function analyzeArchive() {
  const url = 'https://example.com/archive.zip';
  
  const archive = await SmartArchive.fromArchiveUrl(url);
  const analysisResult = await archive.analyzeContent();
  
  console.log(analysisResult); // Outputs details about the archive content
}

Note: Replace analyzeContent with the appropriate method calls as per your implementation or update, as smartarchive provides foundational classes and methods for interaction with archive files but does not directly implement an analyzeContent method by default.

Stream Operations

smartarchive offers streaming operations, allowing you to work with large archives efficiently. Here's an example of using streams to extract an archive:

import { createReadStream, createWriteStream } from 'fs';

async function extractArchiveUsingStream() {
  const archiveStream = createReadStream('/path/to/archive.zip');
  const archive = await SmartArchive.fromArchiveStream(archiveStream);
  const extractionStream = await archive.exportToStreamOfStreamFiles();
  
  extractionStream.pipe(createWriteStream('/path/to/destination'));
}

Conclusion

@push.rocks/smartarchive simplifies the process of working with various archive formats in JavaScript and TypeScript projects. By providing an easy-to-use API for common archive operations, it enables developers to integrate archive manipulation features into their applications efficiently.

Remember, the examples provided here are to give you a starting point. Depending on your specific use case, you may need to adjust these examples to fit your project's requirements.
