Combatting Alert Fatigue by Prioritizing Malicious Intent
In 2023, data breaches surged 78% from zero-day and supply chain attacks, but developers are still buried under alerts that are unable to prevent these threats.
Synchronous zlib bindings for NodeJS
Originally made for JS libraries interacting with the Discord gateway, where compression requires a shared zlib context in a synchronous fashion.
Synchronous, Pako-like API
Near-native performance and efficiency
zlib-sync
is a native module, so it requires node-gyp
to be installed, which requires Python 2.7 and a C++ compiler on your system. See the node-gyp documentation for more info. A pre-built module is planned for a future update.
After getting node-gyp
set up, install zlib-sync
like a normal NPM package:
npm install zlib-sync
Documentation can be found here.
var ZlibSync = require("zlib-sync");
var inflate = new ZlibSync.Inflate();
inflate.push(compressedChunk1);
inflate.push(compressedChunk2, ZlibSync.Z_SYNC_FLUSH);
if(inflate.err < 0) {
throw new Error("zlib error: " + inflate.msg);
}
var result = inflate.result;
console.log(result.toString());
