The zlib.brotliDecompressSync() method is an inbuilt application programming interface of the Zlib module which is used to decompress a chunk of data with BrotliDecompress.
Syntax:
zlib.brotliDecompressSync( 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 BrotliDecompress.
The below examples illustrate the use of zlib.brotliDecompressSync() method in Node.js:
Example 1:
// Node.js program to demonstrate the
// zlib.brotliDecompressSync() method
// Including zlib module
const zlib = require('zlib');
// Declaring input and assigning
// it a value string
let input = "Nidhi";
// Calling brotliDecompressSync method
let brotliCom = zlib.brotliCompressSync(input);
let brotliDec = zlib.brotliDecompressSync(
new Buffer.from(brotliCom)).toString('hex');
console.log(brotliDec);
Output:
4e69646869
Example 2:
// Node.js program to demonstrate the
// zlib.brotliDecompressSync() method
// Including zlib module
const zlib = require('zlib');
// Declaring input and assigning
// it a value string
let input = "Nidhi";
// Calling brotliDecompressSync method
let brotliCom = zlib.brotliCompressSync(input).toString('hex')
let brotliDec = zlib.brotliDecompressSync(
new Buffer.from(brotliCom, 'hex')).toString('base64');
console.log(brotliDec);
