huffman-ts v0.1.3

Huffman ts

Huffman ts is an implementation of Huffman Algorithm in Typescript. It provides full compatibility with Huffman algorithm reference.

Typescript version of huffman_js

Basic Usage

npm install --save huffman-ts

import {Huffman} from 'huffman-ts'

let text = 'BCAADDDCCACACAC'
let huffman = Huffman.treeFromText(text); // first we need to create the tree to make encoding/decoding
let encoded = huffman.encode(text); // will return the compressed version of text
console.log(encoded, encoded.length)

let decoded = huffman.decode(encoded); // will decode text to original version
// decoded: 'BCAADDDCCACACAC'

import {Huffman} from 'huffman-ts'

let text = 'BCAADDDCCACACAC'
let huffman = Huffman.treeFromText(text); // generate the tree
let treeEncoded = huffman.encodeTree(); // will return an javascript array with tree representation
let treeJSON = JSON.stringify(treeEncoded); // get a JSON string for easy transportation
// treeJSON: `["C",[["B","D"],"A"]]`

let treeAgain = Huffman.decodeTree(treeEncoded); // restore

Test

npm run test
