cppzst

Zstd wrapper for node.js (fork)

Changes:

• Added support for running inside V8 sandbox.
• Updated zstd to latest.
• Added proper support for ES modules and CJS.

Installation

$ npm install @metastable/cppzst --save

Usage

Async

compress(buffer[, zstdCompressParams], callback)

import { compress } from "cppzst";

await compress(input);

decompress(buffer[, zstdDecompressParams], callback)

import { decompress } from "cppzst";

await decompress(input);

Sync

compressSync(buffer[, zstdCompressParams])

const compressSync = require("cppzst").compressSync;

try {
  var output = compressSync(input);
} catch (err) {
  // ...
}

decompressSync(buffer[, zstdCompressParams])

const decompressSync = require("cppzst").decompressSync;

try {
  var output = decompressSync(input);
} catch (err) {
  // ...
}

Stream

compressStream([zstdCompressParams])

const compressStream = require("cppzst").compressStream;
const fs = require("fs");

fs.createReadStream("path/to/input")
  .pipe(compressStream())
  .pipe(fs.createWriteStream("path/to/output"));

decompressStream([zstdCompressParams])

const decompressStream = require("cppzst").decompressStream;
const fs = require("fs");

fs.createReadStream("path/to/input")
  .pipe(decompressStream())
  .pipe(fs.createWriteStream("path/to/output"));

ZSTD Params

The compress, compressSync and compressStream methods may accept an optional zstdCompressParams object to define compress level and/or dict.

const zstdCompressParams = {
  level: 5, // default 1
  dict: new Buffer("hello zstd"), // if dict null, left level only.
  dictSize: dict.length, // if dict null, left level only.
};

The decompress, decompressSync and decompressStream methods may accept an optional zstdDecompressParams object to define dict.

const zdtdDecompressParams = {
  dict: new Buffer("hello zstd"),
  dictSize: dict.length,
};
