DO NOT USE THIS THING about node-unzip HOT 8 OPEN

If you have already written code against unzip and are having problems, try https://www.npmjs.com/package/unzipper, which should be a drop-in replacement. Worked for me.

@EvanOxfeld I hope you are alive. Could you please mark this package as deprecated? It will help to make NodeJS ecosystem less cluttered.

whoa, lost a few hours trying to figure out why it was not working for my use case, and it really looked like it wasn't consuming my stream properly. thanks for the reminder :)

Fantastic! I've spent almost a day to find the problem in my code, but the problem was in that lib.

@mmontag thank you so much for this thread. I did spent hours with issues with this package and unzipper did work as a drop-in replacement without any issues inside modern async code!
Thank you so much!

Wooh. Thanks!

Wow, thanks for this issue. I've been tracing weird file behavior for hours. Couldn't figure out why intermittently I couldn't overwrite a file that had been unzipped. Following this post I think it couldn't overwrite the file because it's file handle was probably still in use.

Thanks a ton @mmontag

Thanks, @mmontag! After spending a day writing code that uses this it's fantastic to have a drop-in replacement.
