The zip-bucket-bin module contains only the zip-bucket command line program.

npm may also install the zip-bucket library module as a dependency.

Command Line Program zip-bucket

Creates a .zip archive from a collection of files in a Google Cloud Storage[tm] bucket. You can keep the resulting .zip file locally, upload back to Google Cloud Storage, or both.

Installation
