Jszip: Zip a txt file, the size is not compressed

[ryanakl]

I tried to zip a text file, but the downloaded zip file doesn't compress the size.

Here is my code:

        var zip1 = new JSZip();
        zip1.file("test.txt", "a very long text here");

        zip1.generateAsync({type:"blob"})
        .then(function(content) {
            saveAs(content, "test.zip");
        });

Could you please tell me what went wrong?

Use the compression option:

zip1.generateAsync({
    type: "blob",
    compression: "DEFLATE"
}).then(...)
