Extract files from a ZIP archive

Extracts the contents of the ZIP archive file.

Returns an EventEmitter with two possible events - error on an error, and extract when the extraction has completed. The value passed to the extract event is a basic log of each file and how it was compressed.

The default value for options is { path: '.' }. Currently path is the only option, and is the output path for the extraction.

var DecompressZip = require('decompress-zip');
var unzipper = new DecompressZip(filename)

unzipper.on('error', function (err) {
    console.log('Caught an error');
});

unzipper.on('extract', function (log) {
    console.log('Finished extracting');
});

unzipper.extract({
	path: 'some/path'
});

If path does not exist, decompress-zip will attempt to create it first.

Much like extract, except:

• the success event is list
• the data for the event is an array of paths
• no files are actually extracted
• there are no options

var DecompressZip = require('decompress-zip');
var unzipper = new DecompressZip(filename)

unzipper.on('error', function (err) {
    console.log('Caught an error');
});

unzipper.on('list', function (files) {
    console.log('The archive contains:');
    console.log(files);
});

unzipper.list();
