Pako is a powerful and flexible zlib port to JavaScript. It's designed to be fast, modularized, and fully compatible with browsers. Benefit from binary-equal results to the well-known zlib, along with comparable speed in modern JavaScript engines. You can utilize Pako for a variety of CPU-intensive tasks, thereby eliminating the need for developing native C modules.
You can easily utilize Pako in your JavaScript projects with a few simple steps. First, install it via npm using the npm install pako
command.
After installing, you can import Pako into your JavaScript files. Pako provides functionalities for both deflate and inflate operations.
Here's a basic example to deflate an array of data:
const pako = require('pako');
const input = new Uint8Array();
//... fill input data here
const output = pako.deflate(input);
And an example to inflate (uncompress) data:
const pako = require('pako');
const compressed = new Uint8Array();
//... fill data to uncompress here
try {
const result = pako.inflate(compressed);
// ... continue processing
} catch (err) {
console.log(err);
}
Beyond simple inflate and deflate operations, Pako gives you the flexibility to work with chunked data, and handles data recoding for string operations automatically.
You can locate comprehensive Pako documentation at their official documentation page: http://nodeca.github.io/pako/. This includes in-depth API usage guides, code examples, and other useful resources to aid your utilization of Pako in your projects.
