What is the same method as pako.deflate?

[zzmingo]

I know that the same as pako.deflateRaw is fflate.deflate, what is the same method as pako.deflate?

There's not much continuity among the different compression libraries, unfortunately, but I didn't want to conform to a misnomer for the actual compression algorithm being used. fflate's naming convention is correct; the other libraries are wrong. That said, here's a direct mapping:

pako.deflateRaw = zlib.deflateRawSync = fflate.deflateSync
zlib.deflateRaw = fflate.deflate
pako.deflate = zlib.deflateSync = fflate.zlibSync
zlib.deflate = fflate.zlib

I'll add a full list to the wiki.

@101arrowz any ETA on this table? I'd like to use this as a polyfill for zlib and I'm not certain on what to use instead of zlib's inflateSync

[101arrowz]

That would just be unzlibSync. I forgot entirely about this but I will try to remember to add it when I get a chance.

unzlibSync

ah but that outs uint8 not string :/

[101arrowz]

You can convert to and from string with strFromU8 and strToU8

@101arrowz Can you add a guide to migrating from pako in Readme? I was confused when I tried to migrate to fflate.
