A simple Node.js utility designed to be used with Multer in server-side applications to compress data. It offers lossless compression using the gzip algorithm.
example usage, please refer to the EXAMPLE.md file.
You can install the package via npm:
npm install image-bin-compressorImporting the Module
import { compressBinaryData, decompressBinaryData } from 'image-bin-compressor';Compressing Binary Data
// binaryData is a Buffer containing the raw binary data of the image
const compressedData = await compressBinaryData(binaryData);
// Decompressing Binary Data
// compressedData is a Buffer containing the compressed binary data
const decompressedData = await decompressBinaryData(compressedData);import { compressBinaryData, decompressBinaryData } from 'image-bin-compressor';
import fs from 'fs';
async function example() {
try {
// Read binary data from file
const binaryData = fs.readFileSync('image.jpg');
// Compress binary data
const compressedData = await compressBinaryData(binaryData);
// Decompress compressed data
const decompressedData = await decompressBinaryData(compressedData);
// Compare original binary data with decompressed data
console.log('Are original binary data and decompressed data equal?', Buffer.compare(binaryData, decompressedData) === 0);
} catch (error) {
console.error('Error:', error);
}
}
