A simple Node module and CLI tools which gzip files for you! :)
It's very simple to use it, just follow the documentation below...
npm install gzipmevar gzipme = require('gzipme');
// Compress "file.txt" to "file.txt.gz" in the same dir.
gzipme("file.txt");
// Compress "file.txt" and overwrite it to "file.txt" in the same dir.
gzipme("file.txt", true);
// Compress "file.txt" to specified file "compressed.txt" in the same dir.
gzipme("file.txt", "compressed.txt");
// Compress "file.txt" using best compress mode (few bytes, but slow compression).
gzipme("file.txt", false, "best");
// Compress "file.txt" using fast compress mode (fast compression, but more bytes).
gzipme("file.txt", false, "fast");Click here to understand the Node.js Zlib compreension mode.
npm install -g gzipme# It's the same as function 'gzipme("file.txt")'.
gzipme file.txt
# It's the same as function 'gzipme("file.txt", true)'.
gzipme -o file.txt
# It's the same as function 'gzipme("file.txt", "compressed.txt")'.
gzipme -O compressed.txt file.txt
# It's the same as function 'gzipme("file.txt", false, "best")'.
gzipme -c best file.txt
# It's the same as function 'gzipme("file.txt", false, "fast")'.
gzipme -c fast file.txtJust clone this repository, and follow the commands below:
git clone git@github.com:caio-ribeiro-pereira/gzipme.git
cd gzipme
npm install
npm testIt will run Mocha tests and will generate coverage reports and all coverage tests are here.

- Decompress a gzip file
- Compress full directories and subdirectories
- Compress and Decompress in async function
And new ideas are welcome here!
