it should be

var fstream = require("fstream"),
    tar = require("tar"),
    zlib = require("zlib");

fstream.Reader({path: 'src', type: "Directory"}).pipe(tar.Pack()).pipe(zlib.createGzip()).pipe(fstream.Writer("output.tar.gz"));

note the type:dir thing

How does one get the size of fstream.Reader({path: 'src', type: "Directory"}).pipe(tar.Pack()).pipe(zlib.createGzip())?
