Node.js zlib.gzipSync() Method
The zlib.gzipSync() method is an inbuilt application programming interface of the Zlib module which is used to compress a chunk of data with Gzip.
Syntax:
zlib.gzipSync( buffer, options )
Parameters: This method accepts two parameters as mentioned above and described below:
- buffer: This parameter holds the buffer of type Buffer, TypedArray, DataView, ArrayBuffer, and string.
- options: This parameter holds the value of the zlib option.
Return Value: It returns the chunk of data with Gzip.
The below examples illustrate the use of zlib.gzipSync() method in Node.js:
Example 1:
javascript
// Node.js program to demonstrate the // zlib.gzipSync() method // Including zlib module const zlib = require( 'zlib' ); // Declaring input and assigning // it a value string const input = "Nidhi" ; // Calling brotliDecompressSync method const gzi = zlib.gzipSync(input); console.log(gzi); |
Output:
<Buffer 1f 8b 08 00 00 00 00 00 00 03 f3 cb 4c c9 c8 04 00 13 f2 5b b1 05 00 00 00>
Example 2:
javascript
// Node.js program to demonstrate the // zlib.gzipSync() method // Including zlib module const zlib = require( 'zlib' ); // Declaring input and assigning // it a value string const input = "Nidhi" ; // Calling brotliDecompressSync method const gzi = zlib.gzipSync(input).toString( 'hex' ); console.log(gzi); |
Output:
