# decompress [](https://travis-ci.org/kevva/decompress)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
> Extracting archives made easy
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
*See [decompress-cli](https://github.com/kevva/decompress-cli) for the command-line version.*
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Install
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ npm install decompress
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Usage
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```js
 | 
						|
const decompress = require('decompress');
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
decompress('unicorn.zip', 'dist').then(files => {
 | 
						|
	console.log('done!');
 | 
						|
});
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## API
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### decompress(input, [output], [options])
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Returns a Promise for an array of files in the following format:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```js
 | 
						|
{
 | 
						|
	data: Buffer,
 | 
						|
	mode: Number,
 | 
						|
	mtime: String,
 | 
						|
	path: String,
 | 
						|
	type: String
 | 
						|
}
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
#### input
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Type: `string` `Buffer`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
File to decompress.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
#### output
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Type: `string`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Output directory.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
#### options
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
##### filter
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Type: `Function`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Filter out files before extracting. E.g:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```js
 | 
						|
decompress('unicorn.zip', 'dist', {
 | 
						|
	filter: file => path.extname(file.path) !== '.exe'
 | 
						|
}).then(files => {
 | 
						|
	console.log('done!');
 | 
						|
});
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
*Note that in the current implementation, **`filter` is only applied after fully reading all files from the archive in memory**. Do not rely on this option to limit the amount of memory used by `decompress` to the size of the files included by `filter`. `decompress` will read the entire compressed file into memory regardless.*
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
##### map
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Type: `Function`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Map files before extracting: E.g:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```js
 | 
						|
decompress('unicorn.zip', 'dist', {
 | 
						|
	map: file => {
 | 
						|
		file.path = `unicorn-${file.path}`;
 | 
						|
		return file;
 | 
						|
	}
 | 
						|
}).then(files => {
 | 
						|
	console.log('done!');
 | 
						|
});
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
##### plugins
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Type: `Array`<br>
 | 
						|
Default: `[decompressTar(), decompressTarbz2(), decompressTargz(), decompressUnzip()]`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Array of [plugins](https://www.npmjs.com/browse/keyword/decompressplugin) to use.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
##### strip
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Type: `number`<br>
 | 
						|
Default: `0`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Remove leading directory components from extracted files.
