# Archiver
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A streaming interface for archive generation
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Visit the [API documentation](https://www.archiverjs.com/) for a list of all methods available.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Install
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
npm install archiver --save
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Quick Start
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```js
|
||
|
|
// require modules
|
||
|
|
const fs = require('fs');
|
||
|
|
const archiver = require('archiver');
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
// create a file to stream archive data to.
|
||
|
|
const output = fs.createWriteStream(__dirname + '/example.zip');
|
||
|
|
const archive = archiver('zip', {
|
||
|
|
zlib: { level: 9 } // Sets the compression level.
|
||
|
|
});
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
// listen for all archive data to be written
|
||
|
|
// 'close' event is fired only when a file descriptor is involved
|
||
|
|
output.on('close', function() {
|
||
|
|
console.log(archive.pointer() + ' total bytes');
|
||
|
|
console.log('archiver has been finalized and the output file descriptor has closed.');
|
||
|
|
});
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
// This event is fired when the data source is drained no matter what was the data source.
|
||
|
|
// It is not part of this library but rather from the NodeJS Stream API.
|
||
|
|
// @see: https://nodejs.org/api/stream.html#stream_event_end
|
||
|
|
output.on('end', function() {
|
||
|
|
console.log('Data has been drained');
|
||
|
|
});
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
// good practice to catch warnings (ie stat failures and other non-blocking errors)
|
||
|
|
archive.on('warning', function(err) {
|
||
|
|
if (err.code === 'ENOENT') {
|
||
|
|
// log warning
|
||
|
|
} else {
|
||
|
|
// throw error
|
||
|
|
throw err;
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
});
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
// good practice to catch this error explicitly
|
||
|
|
archive.on('error', function(err) {
|
||
|
|
throw err;
|
||
|
|
});
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
// pipe archive data to the file
|
||
|
|
archive.pipe(output);
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
// append a file from stream
|
||
|
|
const file1 = __dirname + '/file1.txt';
|
||
|
|
archive.append(fs.createReadStream(file1), { name: 'file1.txt' });
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
// append a file from string
|
||
|
|
archive.append('string cheese!', { name: 'file2.txt' });
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
// append a file from buffer
|
||
|
|
const buffer3 = Buffer.from('buff it!');
|
||
|
|
archive.append(buffer3, { name: 'file3.txt' });
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
// append a file
|
||
|
|
archive.file('file1.txt', { name: 'file4.txt' });
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
// append files from a sub-directory and naming it `new-subdir` within the archive
|
||
|
|
archive.directory('subdir/', 'new-subdir');
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
// append files from a sub-directory, putting its contents at the root of archive
|
||
|
|
archive.directory('subdir/', false);
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
// append files from a glob pattern
|
||
|
|
archive.glob('file*.txt', {cwd:__dirname});
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
// finalize the archive (ie we are done appending files but streams have to finish yet)
|
||
|
|
// 'close', 'end' or 'finish' may be fired right after calling this method so register to them beforehand
|
||
|
|
archive.finalize();
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Formats
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Archiver ships with out of the box support for TAR and ZIP archives.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can register additional formats with `registerFormat`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can check if format already exists before to register a new one with `isRegisteredFormat`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
_Formats will be changing in the future to implement a middleware approach._
