npm install dl-tar
const dlTar = require('dl-tar');
tarArchiveUrl: string
extractDir: string
(a path where the archive will be extracted)
options: Object
Return: Observable
(zenparsing's implementation)
When the Observable
is subscribed, it starts to download the tar archive, extract it and successively send extraction progress to its Observer
.
When the Subscription
is unsubscribed, it stops downloading and extracting.
It automatically unzips gzipped archives.
Every progress object have two properties entry
and response
.
Type: tar.ReadEntry
An instance of node-tar's ReadEntry
object.
For example you can get the progress of each entry as a percentage by 100 - progress.entry.remain / progress.entry.size * 100
.
dlTar('https://****.org/my-archive.tar', 'my/dir')
.filter(progress => progress.entry.type === 'File')
.subscribe(progress => {
console.log(`${(100 - progress.entry.remain / progress.entry.size * 100).toFixed(1)} %`);
if (progress.entry.remain === 0) {
console.log(`>> OK ${progress.entry.header.path}`);
}
});

response.url
is the final redirected URL of the request, response.headers
is a response header object derived from http.IncomingMessage
, and response.bytes
is a total content length of the downloaded archive. content-length
header will be converted to number
if it's string
.
You can pass options to Request and node-tar's Unpack
constructor. Note that:
onentry
option is not supported.strict
option defaults to true
, not false
.strip
option defaults to 1
, not 0
. That means the top level directory is stripped off by default.ISC License © 2017 - 2018 Shinnosuke Watanabe
