How to import npm module from github?

14 Replies

I want to use a npm module which is not on npm (https://github.com/ZJONSSON/node-unzipper/blob/341f258 ) I tried

// @deno-types="npm:@types/unzipper@0.10"
export { Extract } from "https://github.com/ZJONSSON/node-unzipper/raw/341f258/lib/extract.js";

// @deno-types="npm:@types/unzipper@0.10"
export { Extract } from "https://github.com/ZJONSSON/node-unzipper/raw/341f258/lib/extract.js";

, but it did not work:

error: Uncaught SyntaxError: The requested module 'https://github.com/ZJONSSON/node-unzipper/raw/341f258/lib/extract.js' does not provide an export named 'Extract'
export { Extract } from "https://github.com/ZJONSSON/node-unzipper/raw/341f258/lib/extract.js";
         ^

I guess that I need to make deno recognize it's a npm module, but i don't know how to.

GitHub

publish latest version? · Issue #256 · ZJONSSON/node-unzipper

package.json is on 0.10.13 but the last publish to NPM was 2yrs ago (0.10.11) - can you publish the latest to NPM?

Hm. Not sure if this is possible with the current setup, definitely interesting. What is your usecase? Would https://deno.land/x/zip not work for what you're trying to do?

Nanashi.OP•2y ago

It didn't.

What are you trying to do?

Nanashi.OP•2y ago

Unzipping this package didn't work

ioB•2y ago

.zip is not just one standard. Where are these zips coming from? A lot of "streamable unzip" libraries cannot work the way they are advertised because some zip formats are not streamably unzippable. Is there a reason you need the unreleased version? Does importing the one on npm work right now?

Nanashi.OP•2y ago

Yes, npm latest doesn't support zip64, but unreleased one does

ioB•2y ago

Have you tried https://deno.land/x/zipjs ?

Nanashi.OP•2y ago

I didn't know this, i'll try it

Nanashi.OP•2y ago

(sigh)
