Stable</div><p></p> <p>The <code>zlib</code> module provides compression functionality implemented using Gzip and Deflate/Inflate, as well as Brotli. It can be accessed using:</p> <pre><code class="language-js">const zlib = require('zlib'); </code></pre> <p>Compressing or decompressing a stream (such as a file) can be accomplished by piping the source stream data through a <code>zlib</code> stream into a destination stream:</p> <pre><code class="language-js">const gzip = zlib.createGzip(); const fs = require('fs'); const inp = fs.createReadStream('input.txt'); const out = fs.createWriteStream('input.txt.gz'); inp.pipe(gzip).pipe(out); </code></pre> <p>It is also possible to compress or decompress data in a single step:</p> <pre><code class="language-js">const input = '.................................'; zlib.deflate(input, (err, buffer) => { if (!err) { console.log(buffer.toString('base64')); } else { // handle error } }); const buffer = Buffer.from('eJzT0yMAAGTvBe8=', 'base64'); zlib.unzip(buffer, (err, buffer) => { if (!err) { console.log(buffer.toString()); } else { // handle error } }); </code></pre> <h2>Threadpool Usage<span><a class="mark" href="#zlib_threadpool_usage" id="zlib_threadpool_usage">#</a></span></h2> <p>Note that all zlib APIs except those that are explicitly synchronous use libuv's threadpool. This can lead to surprising effects in some applications, such as subpar performance (which can be mitigated by adjusting the <a href="cli.html#cli_uv_threadpool_size_size">pool size</a>) and/or unrecoverable and catastrophic memory fragmentation.</p> <h2>Compressing HTTP requests and responses<span><a class="mark" href="#zlib_compressing_http_requests_and_responses" id="zlib_compressing_http_requests_and_responses">#</a></span></h2> <p>The <code>zlib</code> module can be used to implement support for the <code>gzip</code>, <code>deflate</code> and <code>br</code> content-encoding mechanisms defined by <a href="https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7230#section-4.2">HTTP</a>.</p> <p>The HTTP <a href="https://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html#sec14.3"><code>Accept-Encoding</code></a> header is used within an http request to identify the compression encodings accepted by the client. The <a href="https://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html#sec14.11"><code>Content-Encoding</code></a> header is used to identify the compression encodings actually applied to a message.</p> <p>The examples given below are drastically simplified to show the basic concept. Using <code>zlib</code> encoding can be expensive, and the results ought to be cached. See <a href="#zlib_memory_usage_tuning">Memory Usage Tuning</a> for more information on the speed/memory/compression tradeoffs involved in <code>zlib</code> usage.</p> <pre><code class="language-js">// client request example const zlib = require('zlib'); const http = require('http'); const fs = require('fs'); const request = http.get({ host: 'example.com', path: '/', port: 80, headers: { 'Accept-Encoding': 'br,gzip,deflate' } }); request.on('response', (response) => { const output = fs.createWriteStream('example.com_index.html'); switch (response.headers['content-encoding']) { case 'br': response.pipe(zlib.createBrotliDecompress()).pipe(output); break; // Or, just use zlib.createUnzip() to handle both of the following cases: case 'gzip': response.pipe(zlib.createGunzip()).pipe(output); break; case 'deflate': response.pipe(zlib.createInflate()).pipe(output); break; default: response.pipe(output); break; } }); </code></pre> <pre><code class="language-js">// server example // Running a gzip operation on every request is quite expensive. // It would be much more efficient to cache the compressed buffer. const zlib = require('zlib'); const http = require('http'); const fs = require('fs'); http.createServer((request, response) => { const raw = fs.createReadStream('index.html'); let acceptEncoding = request.headers['accept-encoding']; if (!acceptEncoding) { acceptEncoding = ''; } // Note: This is not a conformant accept-encoding parser. // See https://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html#sec14.3 if (/\bdeflate\b/.test(acceptEncoding)) { response.writeHead(200, { 'Content-Encoding': 'deflate' }); raw.pipe(zlib.createDeflate()).pipe(response); } else if (/\bgzip\b/.test(acceptEncoding)) { response.writeHead(200, { 'Content-Encoding': 'gzip' }); raw.pipe(zlib.createGzip()).pipe(response); } else if (/\bbr\b/.test(acceptEncoding)) { response.writeHead(200, { 'Content-Encoding': 'br' }); raw.pipe(zlib.createBrotliCompress()).pipe(response); } else { response.writeHead(200, {}); raw.pipe(response); } }).listen(1337); </code></pre> <p>By default, the <code>zlib</code> methods will throw an error when decompressing truncated data. However, if it is known that the data is incomplete, or the desire is to inspect only the beginning of a compressed file, it is possible to suppress the default error handling by changing the flushing method that is used to decompress the last chunk of input data:</p> <pre><code class="language-js">// This is a truncated version of the buffer from the above examples const buffer = Buffer.from('eJzT0yMA', 'base64'); zlib.unzip( buffer, // For Brotli, the equivalent is zlib.constants.BROTLI_OPERATION_FLUSH. { finishFlush: zlib.constants.Z_SYNC_FLUSH }, (err, buffer) => { if (!err) { console.log(buffer.toString()); } else { // handle error } }); </code></pre> <p>This will not change the behavior in other error-throwing situations, e.g. when the input data has an invalid format. Using this method, it will not be possible to determine whether the input ended prematurely or lacks the integrity checks, making it necessary to manually check that the decompressed result is valid.</p> <h2>Memory Usage Tuning<span><a class="mark" href="#zlib_memory_usage_tuning" id="zlib_memory_usage_tuning">#</a></span></h2> <h3>For zlib-based streams<span><a class="mark" href="#zlib_for_zlib_based_streams" id="zlib_for_zlib_based_streams">#</a></span></h3> <p>From <code>zlib/zconf.h</code>, modified to Node.js's usage:</p> <p>The memory requirements for deflate are (in bytes):</p> <!-- eslint-disable semi --> <pre><code class="language-js">(1 << (windowBits + 2)) + (1 << (memLevel + 9)) </code></pre> <p>That is: 128K for <code>windowBits</code> = 15 + 128K for <code>memLevel</code> = 8 (default values) plus a few kilobytes for small objects.</p> <p>For example, to reduce the default memory requirements from 256K to 128K, the options should be set to:</p> <pre><code class="language-js">const options = { windowBits: 14, memLevel: 7 }; </code></pre> <p>This will, however, generally degrade compression.</p> <p>The memory requirements for inflate are (in bytes) <code>1 << windowBits</code>. That is, 32K for <code>windowBits</code> = 15 (default value) plus a few kilobytes for small objects.</p> <p>This is in addition to a single internal output slab buffer of size <code>chunkSize</code>, which defaults to 16K.</p> <p>The speed of <code>zlib</code> compression is affected most dramatically by the <code>level</code> setting. A higher level will result in better compression, but will take longer to complete. A lower level will result in less compression, but will be much faster.</p> <p>In general, greater memory usage options will mean that Node.js has to make fewer calls to <code>zlib</code> because it will be able to process more data on each <code>write</code> operation. So, this is another factor that affects the speed, at the cost of memory usage.</p> <h3>For Brotli-based streams<span><a class="mark" href="#zlib_for_brotli_based_streams" id="zlib_for_brotli_based_streams">#</a></span></h3> <p>There are equivalents to the zlib options for Brotli-based streams, although these options have different ranges than the zlib ones:</p> <ul> <li>zlib’s <code>level</code> option matches Brotli’s <code>BROTLI_PARAM_QUALITY</code> option.</li> <li>zlib’s <code>windowBits</code> option matches Brotli’s <code>BROTLI_PARAM_LGWIN</code> option.</li> </ul> <p>See <a href="#zlib_brotli_constants">below</a> for more details on Brotli-specific options.</p> <h2>Flushing<span><a class="mark" href="#zlib_flushing" id="zlib_flushing">#</a></span></h2> <p>Calling <a href="#zlib_zlib_flush_kind_callback"><code>.flush()</code></a> on a compression stream will make <code>zlib</code> return as much output as currently possible. This may come at the cost of degraded compression quality, but can be useful when data needs to be available as soon as possible.</p> <p>In the following example, <code>flush()</code> is used to write a compressed partial HTTP response to the client:</p> <pre><code class="language-js">const zlib = require('zlib'); const http = require('http'); http.createServer((request, response) => { // For the sake of simplicity, the Accept-Encoding checks are omitted. response.writeHead(200, { 'content-encoding': 'gzip' }); const output = zlib.createGzip(); output.pipe(response); setInterval(() => { output.write(`The current time is ${Date()}\n`, () => { // The data has been passed to zlib, but the compression algorithm may // have decided to buffer the data for more efficient compression. // Calling .flush() will make the data available as soon as the client // is ready to receive it. output.flush(); }); }, 1000); }).listen(1337); </code></pre> <h2>Constants<span><a class="mark" href="#zlib_constants" id="zlib_constants">#</a></span></h2> <div class="api_metadata"> <span>Added in: v0.5.8</span> </div> <h3>zlib constants<span><a class="mark" href="#zlib_zlib_constants" id="zlib_zlib_constants">#</a></span></h3> <p>All of the constants defined in <code>zlib.h</code> are also defined on <code>require('zlib').constants</code>. In the normal course of operations, it will not be necessary to use these constants. They are documented so that their presence is not surprising. This section is taken almost directly from the <a href="https://zlib.net/manual.html#Constants">zlib documentation</a>.
