gunzip-maybe
Transform stream that gunzips its input if it is gzipped and just echoes it if not.
npm install gunzip-maybe
Usage
Simply pipe a gzipped (or not gzipped) stream to gunzip([maxRecursion = 3])
and read the unzipped content.
maxRecursion
protects the unzip mechanism from an infinite recursion in case of a malicious archive.
// this will gunzip gzippedStreamgzippedStream;// this will just echo plainTextStreamplainTextStream;
