Lossless LZW compression/decompression implemented in JavaScript for strings/JSON/JS objects.

Install lzwCompress from npm:

npm install lzwcompress

And then to use it in your node.js applications:

var lzwCompress = require('lzwcompress');

...

// To compress anything from within JS
var compressed = lzwCompress.pack(humongousObj);

...

// And to decompress it
var original = lzwCompress.unpack(compressed);

Include lzwCompress.js as a script tag:

<script src="lzwCompress.js"></script>

And then use it in your browser applications:

var lzwCompress = window.lzwCompress;

...

// To compress anything from within JS
var compressed = lzwCompress.pack(humongousObj);

...

// And to decompress it
var original = lzwCompress.unpack(compressed);

Applies LZW compression and JSON key optimization and makes JSON (or any javascript object) smaller for local storage, to ship up to the server etc.
