Node.js zlib.unzipSync() Method

The zlib.unzipSync() method is an inbuilt application programming interface of the Zlib module which is used to decompress a chunk of data with Unzip. Syntax:

zlib.unzipSync( buffer, options )

Parameters: This method accepts two parameters as mentioned above and described below:

buffer: It can be of type Buffer, TypedArray, DataView, ArrayBuffer, and string.
options: It is an optional parameter that holds the zlib options.

Return Value: It returns the chunk of data with Unzip. Below examples illustrate the use of zlib.unzipSync() method in Node.js: Example 1:

javascript

// Node.js program to demonstrate the     
// zlib.unzipSync() method  

// Including zlib module
var zlib = require('zlib');

// Declaring input and assigning
// it a value string
var input = "NidhiSingh";

// Calling gzipSync method
var gzi = zlib.gzipSync(input);

// Calling unzipSync method
var decom = zlib.unzipSync(
    new Buffer.from(gzi)).toString('base64');

console.log(decom);

Output:

Example 2:

javascript

// Node.js program to demonstrate the     
// zlib.unzipSync() method  

// Including zlib module
var zlib = require('zlib');

// Declaring input and assigning
// it a value string
var input = "NidhiSingh";

// Calling gzipSync method
var gzi = zlib.gzipSync(input).toString('hex');

// Calling unzipSync method
var decom = zlib.unzipSync(
    new Buffer.from(gzi, 'hex')).toString('hex');

console.log(decom);

Output:
