@push.rocks/smartarchive
@push.rocks/smartarchive
is a powerful library designed for managing archive files. It provides utilities for compressing and decompressing data in various formats such as zip, tar, gzip, and bzip2. This library aims to simplify the process of handling archive files, making it an ideal choice for projects that require manipulation of archived data.
Install
To install @push.rocks/smartarchive
, you can either use npm or yarn. Run one 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
provides an easy-to-use API for extracting, creating, and analyzing archive files. Below, we'll cover how to get started and explore various features of the module.
Importing SmartArchive
First, import SmartArchive
from @push.rocks/smartarchive
using ESM syntax:
import { SmartArchive } from '@push.rocks/smartarchive';
Extracting Archive Files
You can extract archive files from different sources using SmartArchive.fromArchiveUrl
, SmartArchive.fromArchiveFile
, and SmartArchive.fromArchiveStream
. Here's an example of extracting an archive from a URL:
import { SmartArchive } from '@push.rocks/smartarchive';
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.');
}
extractArchiveFromURL();
Extracting an Archive from a File
Similarly, you can extract an archive from a local file:
import { SmartArchive } from '@push.rocks/smartarchive';
async function extractArchiveFromFile() {
const filePath = '/path/to/archive.zip';
const targetDir = '/path/to/extract';
const archive = await SmartArchive.fromArchiveFile(filePath);
await archive.exportToFs(targetDir);
console.log('Archive extracted successfully.');
}
extractArchiveFromFile();
Stream-Based Extraction
For larger files, you might prefer a streaming approach to prevent high memory consumption. Here’s an example:
import { SmartArchive } from '@push.rocks/smartarchive';
import { createReadStream } 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'));
}
extractArchiveUsingStream();
Analyzing Archive Files
Sometimes, you may need to inspect the contents of an archive before extracting it. The following example shows how to analyze an archive:
import { SmartArchive } from '@push.rocks/smartarchive';
async function analyzeArchive() {
const filePath = '/path/to/archive.zip';
const archive = await SmartArchive.fromArchiveFile(filePath);
const analysisResult = await archive.analyzeContent();
console.log(analysisResult); // Outputs details about the archive content
}
analyzeArchive();
Creating Archive Files
Creating an archive file is straightforward. Here we demonstrate creating a tar.gz archive:
import { SmartArchive } from '@push.rocks/smartarchive';
async function createTarGzArchive() {
const archive = new SmartArchive();
// Add directories and files
archive.addedDirectories.push('/path/to/directory1');
archive.addedFiles.push('/path/to/file1.txt');
// Export as tar.gz
const tarGzStream = await archive.exportToTarGzStream();
// Save to filesystem or handle as needed
tarGzStream.pipe(createWriteStream('/path/to/destination.tar.gz'));
}
createTarGzArchive();
Stream Operations
Here's an example of using smartarchive
's streaming capabilities:
import { createReadStream, createWriteStream } from 'fs';
import { SmartArchive } from '@push.rocks/smartarchive';
async function extractArchiveUsingStreams() {
const archiveStream = createReadStream('/path/to/archive.zip');
const archive = await SmartArchive.fromArchiveStream(archiveStream);
const extractionStream = await archive.exportToStreamOfStreamFiles();
extractionStream.pipe(createWriteStream('/path/to/extracted'));
}
extractArchiveUsingStreams();
Advanced Decompression Usage
smartarchive
supports multiple compression formats. It also provides detailed control over the decompression processes:
- For ZIP files,
ZipTools
handles decompression using thefflate
library. - For TAR files,
TarTools
usestar-stream
. - For GZIP files,
GzipTools
provides aCompressGunzipTransform
andDecompressGunzipTransform
. - For BZIP2 files,
Bzip2Tools
utilizes custom streaming decompression.
Example: Working with a GZIP-compressed archive:
import { createReadStream, createWriteStream } from 'fs';
import { SmartArchive } from '@push.rocks/smartarchive';
async function decompressGzipArchive() {
const filePath = '/path/to/archive.gz';
const targetDir = '/path/to/extract';
const archive = await SmartArchive.fromArchiveFile(filePath);
await archive.exportToFs(targetDir);
console.log('GZIP archive decompressed successfully.');
}
decompressGzipArchive();
Advancing with Custom Decompression Streams
You can inject custom decompression streams where needed:
import { createReadStream, createWriteStream } from 'fs';
import { SmartArchive, GzipTools } from '@push.rocks/smartarchive';
async function customDecompression() {
const filePath = '/path/to/archive.gz';
const targetDir = '/path/to/extract';
const archive = await SmartArchive.fromArchiveFile(filePath);
const gzipTools = new GzipTools();
const decompressionStream = gzipTools.getDecompressionStream();
const archiveStream = await archive.getArchiveStream();
archiveStream.pipe(decompressionStream).pipe(createWriteStream(targetDir));
console.log('Custom GZIP decompression successful.');
}
customDecompression();
Custom Pack and Unpack Tar
When dealing with tar archives, you may need to perform custom packing and unpacking:
import { SmartArchive, TarTools } from '@push.rocks/smartarchive';
import { createWriteStream } from 'fs';
async function customTarOperations() {
const tarTools = new TarTools();
// Packing a directory into a tar stream
const packStream = await tarTools.packDirectory('/path/to/directory');
packStream.pipe(createWriteStream('/path/to/archive.tar'));
// Extracting files from a tar stream
const extractStream = tarTools.getDecompressionStream();
createReadStream('/path/to/archive.tar').pipe(extractStream).on('entry', (header, stream, next) => {
const writeStream = createWriteStream(`/path/to/extract/${header.name}`);
stream.pipe(writeStream);
stream.on('end', next);
});
}
customTarOperations();
Extract and Analyze All-in-One
To extract and simultaneously analyze archive content:
import { createReadStream, createWriteStream } from 'fs';
import { SmartArchive } from '@push.rocks/smartarchive';
async function extractAndAnalyze() {
const filePath = '/path/to/archive.zip';
const targetDir = '/path/to/extract';
const archive = await SmartArchive.fromArchiveFile(filePath);
const analyzedStream = archive.archiveAnalyzer.getAnalyzedStream();
const extractionStream = await archive.exportToStreamOfStreamFiles();
analyzedStream.pipe(extractionStream).pipe(createWriteStream(targetDir));
analyzedStream.on('data', (chunk) => {
console.log(JSON.stringify(chunk, null, 2));
});
}
extractAndAnalyze();
