The compress-tools crate aims to provide a convenient and easy to use set
of methods which builds on top of libarchive exposing a small set of it’s
functionalities.
| Platform | Build Status |
|---|---|
| Linux - x86_64 |  |
| macOS - x86_64 |  |
| Windows - x86_64 |  |
You must have libarchive, 3.2.0 or newer, properly installed on your
system in order to use this. If building on *nix and Windows GNU
systems, pkg-config is used to locate the libarchive; on Windows
MSVC, vcpkg will be used to locating the libarchive.
The minimum supported Rust version is 1.59.
This crate is capable of extracting:
- compressed files
- archive files
- single file from an archive
For example, to extract an archive file it is as simple as:
use compress_tools::*;
use std::fs::File;
use std::path::Path;
let mut source = File::open("tree.tar.gz")?;
let dest = Path::new("/tmp/dest");
uncompress_archive(&mut source, &dest, Ownership::Preserve)?;Licensed under either of
