GZIP + Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory

[belaa007]

If you use gzip: true, and the file doesn't exist, the module throws an unhandles exception:
{ Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open 'asd' errno: -2, code: 'ENOENT', syscall: 'open', path: 'asd' }

The issue is in the big-xml.js file, starting line 20:

  if (options.gzip) {
    var gunzip = zlib.createGunzip();
    stream.pipe(gunzip);
    stream = gunzip;
  }

After this, in line 34, there is indeed an intended error handling:

  stream.on('error', function(err) {
    self.emit('error', new Error(err));
  });

But since here the stream variable is not
var stream = fs.createReadStream(filename);
anymore, it cannot catch errors from from the original stream variable.

My idea to fix this would be to raise the stream.on before the if block, and add a plus error listener in the if block :

  stream.on('error', function(err) {
    self.emit('error', new Error(err));
  });
    
  if (options.gzip) {
    var gunzip = zlib.createGunzip();
    gunzip.on('error', function(err) {
      self.emit('error', new Error(err));
    });
    stream.pipe(gunzip);
    stream = gunzip;
  }
