Unbzip2-Stream Decompression for n8n Workflows

This workflow leverages the unbzip2-stream library to provide a pure JavaScript solution for decompressing bzip2 (.bz2) files in a streaming fashion, ideal for n8n environments where memory efficiency is key. It supports both Node.js and browser contexts, making it versatile for server-side automations or client-side processing within workflows.

Key benefits include no external binary dependencies, low memory usage due to streaming, and seamless integration via n8n's Code node or custom scripts. It's perfect for ETL pipelines, log processing, or any scenario involving compressed archives without blocking on large files.

Use cases: Decompressing large bz2 dumps from databases, handling backup restores in automation chains, or preprocessing compressed survey data exports in forms workflows. Scripts for testing and building ensure reliability across environments.
