Python library providing an API to unpack/decompress and pack/compress directories and files. It's a wrapper around the supported archive and compression formats.
Supported Archives:
Archives are always unpacked to a new directory!
rar
zip
tar
no compression (See usage examples below for an example of adding compression)
Supported Compressions:
gz
xz
bz2
.. code-block:: bash
pip install xtract
See the quickstart documentation <https://docs.rolln.de/knoppo/xtract/master/quickstart.html#installation>
_
for more detailed installation instructions.
The convenience function xtract
can be used to unpack/decompress anything:
.. code-block:: python
from xtract import xtract xtract('my-directory.tar.gz') '/home//my-directory.tar'
Use the all
switch to loop until FileTypeNotSupported
is raised:
.. code-block:: python
xtract('my-directory.tar.gz', all=True) '/home//my-directory'
Compress a file:
.. code-block:: python
from xtract import bz2 bz2('my-file.txt', delete_source=True) '/home//my-file.txt.bz2'
Every function returns the destination (if successful) to chain them:
This creates an intermediate .tar file! Use delete_source=True
to delete it afterwards.
.. code-block:: python
from xtract import tar, gzip gzip( tar('my-directory', ['file1.txt', 'file2.txt']), delete_source=True ) '/home//my-directory.tar.gz'
See the manual <https://docs.rolln.de/knoppo/xtract/master/manual.html>
