pako
==========================================

[![CI](https://github.com/nodeca/pako/workflows/CI/badge.svg)](https://github.com/nodeca/pako/actions)
[![NPM version](https://img.shields.io/npm/v/pako.svg)](https://www.npmjs.org/package/pako)

> zlib port to javascript, very fast!

__Why pako is cool:__

- Results are binary equal to well known [zlib](http://www.zlib.net/) (now contains ported zlib v1.2.8).
- Almost as fast in modern JS engines as C implementation (see benchmarks).
- Works in browsers, you can browserify any separate component.

This project was done to understand how fast JS can be and is it necessary to
develop native C modules for CPU-intensive tasks. Enjoy the result!


__Benchmarks:__


node v12.16.3 (zlib 1.2.9), 1mb input sample:

```
deflate-imaya x 4.75 ops/sec ±4.93% (15 runs sampled)
deflate-pako x 10.38 ops/sec ±0.37% (29 runs sampled)
deflate-zlib x 17.74 ops/sec ±0.77% (46 runs sampled)
gzip-pako x 8.86 ops/sec ±1.41% (29 runs sampled)
inflate-imaya x 107 ops/sec ±0.69% (77 runs sampled)
inflate-pako x 131 ops/sec ±1.74% (82 runs sampled)
inflate-zlib x 258 ops/sec ±0.66% (88 runs sampled)
ungzip-pako x 115 ops/sec ±1.92% (80 runs sampled)
```

node v14.15.0 (google's zlib), 1mb output sample:

```
deflate-imaya x 4.93 ops/sec ±3.09% (16 runs sampled)
deflate-pako x 10.22 ops/sec ±0.33% (29 runs sampled)
deflate-zlib x 18.48 ops/sec ±0.24% (48 runs sampled)
gzip-pako x 10.16 ops/sec ±0.25% (28 runs sampled)
inflate-imaya x 110 ops/sec ±0.41% (77 runs sampled)
inflate-pako x 134 ops/sec ±0.66% (83 runs sampled)
inflate-zlib x 402 ops/sec ±0.74% (87 runs sampled)
ungzip-pako x 113 ops/sec ±0.62% (80 runs sampled)
```

zlib's test is partially affected by marshalling (that make sense for inflate only).
You can change deflate level to 0 in benchmark source, to investigate details.
For deflate level 6 results can be considered as correct.

__Install:__

```
npm install pako
```


Examples / API
--------------

Full docs - http://nodeca.github.io/pako/

```javascript
const pako = require('pako');

// Deflate
//
const input = new Uint8Array();
//... fill input data here
const output = pako.deflate(input);

// Inflate (simple wrapper can throw exception on broken stream)
//
const compressed = new Uint8Array();
//... fill data to uncompress here
try {
  const result = pako.inflate(compressed);
  // ... continue processing
} catch (err) {
  console.log(err);
}

//
// Alternate interface for chunking & without exceptions
//

const deflator = new pako.Deflate();

deflator.push(chunk1, false);
deflator.push(chunk2); // second param is false by default.
...
deflator.push(chunk_last, true); // `true` says this chunk is last

if (deflator.err) {
  console.log(deflator.msg);
}

const output = deflator.result;


const inflator = new pako.Inflate();

inflator.push(chunk1);
inflator.push(chunk2);
...
inflator.push(chunk_last); // no second param because end is auto-detected

if (inflator.err) {
  console.log(inflator.msg);
}

const output = inflator.result;
```

Sometime you can wish to work with strings. For example, to send
stringified objects to server. Pako's deflate detects input data type, and
automatically recode strings to utf-8 prior to compress. Inflate has special
option, to say compressed data has utf-8 encoding and should be recoded to
javascript's utf-16.

```javascript
const pako = require('pako');

const test = { my: 'super', puper: [456, 567], awesome: 'pako' };

const compressed = pako.deflate(JSON.stringify(test));

const restored = JSON.parse(pako.inflate(compressed, { to: 'string' }));
```


Notes
-----

Pako does not contain some specific zlib functions:

- __deflate__ -  methods `deflateCopy`, `deflateBound`, `deflateParams`,
  `deflatePending`, `deflatePrime`, `deflateTune`.
- __inflate__ - methods `inflateCopy`, `inflateMark`,
  `inflatePrime`, `inflateGetDictionary`, `inflateSync`, `inflateSyncPoint`, `inflateUndermine`.
- High level inflate/deflate wrappers (classes) may not support some flush
  modes.
