// myStream is a Readable stream
const myStream = Seven.extractFull('./archive.7z', './output/dir/', {
$progress: true

## Installation
```sh
npm install --save node-7z
```
You should have the a 7-Zip executable (v16.02 or greater) available in your system.
> - On Debian and Ubuntu install the p7zip-full package or use 7-Zip 21.02 alpha or higher
> - On Mac OSX use Homebrew `brew install p7zip`
> - On Windows get 7-Zip from [7-Zip download page](https://www.7-zip.org/download.html).
>
> By default the module calls the `7z` binary, it should be available in your
> PATH.
An alternative is to add the `7zip-bin` module to your project. This module
contains an up-to-date version of 7-Zip for all available plaforms. Then you
can do:
```js
import sevenBin from '7zip-bin'
import { extractFull } from 'node-7z'
const pathTo7zip = sevenBin.path7za
const seven = extractFull('./archive.7z', './output/dir/', {
$bin: pathTo7zip
})
```
## API

### Events
#### Event: `data`
The `data` event is emitted for each processed file. The payload is an object. WARNING only the `data.file` proprety is guaranteed to be present
```js
mySevenStream.on('data', function (data) {
console.log(data)
// {
// file: 'path/of/the/file/in/the/archive',
// status: 'renamed|tested|updated|skipped|deleted|extracted',
// attributes: '....A', size: 9, sizeCompressed: 3, (only list command)
// hash: 'FEDC304F', size: 9 (only hash command)
// techInfo: Map(8) { (only list command with `techInfo` switch)
// 'Path' => 'DirHex/sub2/e825776890f2b',
// 'Size' => '9',
// 'Modified' => '2018-09-29 09:06:15',
// 'Attributes' => 'A_ -rw-r--r--',
// 'CRC' => 'FEDC304F',
// 'Encrypted' => '-',
// 'Method' => 'LZMA2:12',
// 'Block' => '0'
// }
// }
})
```
#### Event: `end`
An `.info` proprety can contain meta-data (type [Map](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Map))
```js
myStream.info
// Map {
// '7-Zip [64] 16.02 ' => 'Copyright (c) 1999-2016 Igor Pavlov : 2016-05-21',
// 'Creating archive' => './test/_tmp/txt-and-md-only.7z',
// 'Items to compress' => '6',
// 'Files read from disk' => '6',
// 'Archive size' => '212 bytes (1 KiB)' }
```
#### Event: `error`
```js
mySevenStream.on('error', function (err) {
// a standard error
// `err.stderr` is a string that can contain extra info about the error
})
```
## Advanced usage
### Compression method
Using the CLI, compression is done like this:
```sh
# adds all .exe files to solid archive archive.7z using the LZMA method
# with 2 MB dictionary and BCJ filter.
7z a archive.7z *.exe -m0=BCJ -m1=LZMA:d=21
```
Using this module:
```js
const compress = Seven.add('archive.7z', '*.exe', {
method: ['0=BCJ', '1=LZMA:d=21']
})
```
### Encrypt metadata (hide filenames in password protected archives)
This operation is supported only in the 7z file format.
Using the CLI, if you want to password protect an archive while also hiding filenames you write:
```sh
# adds all .exe files with a password and also encrypt metadata, thus hiding filenames
7z a archive.7z *.exe -p -mhe
```
Using this module:
```js
const compress = Seven.add('archive.7z', '*.exe', {
password: "your-password-here",
method: ['he']
})
```
### Raw inputs
> Thanks to sketchpunk #9 for this one
Sometimes you just want to use the lib as the original command line. For
instance you want to apply to switches with different values. You can use the
custom `$raw` key in your `options` object and pass it an *Array* of
values.
```js
const compress = Seven.add('archive.7z', '*.gif', {
$raw: [ '-i!*.jpg', '-i!*.png' ], // only images
})
```
### Emoji and Unicode
Due to a `7z` limitation emojis and special characters can't be used as values
when passed to an `option` object (ex: password). But they can be used in
archive, filenames and destinations.
Use the `{ charset: 'UTF-8' }` for special characters.
### Log level
The default log level (`-bb` switch) is set to:
> 3 :show information about additional operations (Analyze, Replicate) for "Add" / "Update" operations.
It's a base feature of `node-7z` and is required for the module to work as
expected. A diffrent value should not be used.
### Security
Values given by the package are not sanitized, you just get the raw output from
the 7-Zip binary. Remember to never trust user input and sanitize accordingly.
### External child process
You can pipe a child procress from an other source and pass it to `node-7z`. An
use case may be that the 7-Zip process runs on an other machine and the sdtio is
piped in the application.
```js
const external = // an external child process
const myStream = Seven.add('dummy', 'dummy', {
$defer: true
})
myStream.on('data', data => yourLogicWith(data))
Seven.listen(myStream)
```
