![]() ![]() ![]() Oooh, so with a fresh enough Nix you could even get away without quotes. extractdir is the name of the target directory where the archive is unpacked. was added after auto-completing by the use of tab in PowerShell, but I think it should work without that. From the command prompt or PowerShell in Windows 10 I can run. filename is the full path of the archive. I believe tar has been added as a native function in Windows 10 since the posting of this. shutil.unpackarchive (filename, extractdir, format) Unpack an archive. Is there anyway to extract a single file out given the above the above scenario Thank you. I dont have information about names of the files within the compressed file. noobninja at 19:27 Better Question to ask than how to do this with tar: Use unar or 7z and never worry about choosing the right program for your type of archive again. It’s used with the 7-Zip software, but Linux users can extract it using the p7zip tool. 7Z is a file format that provides a high compression ratio. To exract a tar.bz2 file, type: tar -xvjf 2. I have tried copying the file into $out, have tried hard coding the names of the two tar files - all to no avail. If you are using python 3, you should use shutil.unpackarchive that works for most of the common archive format. I want to quickly examine a file out of the compressed file and have a glimpse of files content structure. To extract a BZ2 file, use the bunzip2 or bzip2 -d command: bunzip2 filename.bz2. I have the two tar.gz files in the same directory as the derivation, but when I try to tar/unpack the files the derivation fails because the file is not in the directory in which the derivation is being built - which makes sense. Problem I am having is that I cannot work out how to make Nix find the file in the directory. To do this you download two tar files and then extract and build them. You can do so by appending the -C switch to the end of the command. Then using the regular tar command on an archive file, I could extract the contents tar xvf myfile.tar. I am trying to build the libraries and documentation for the lua binaries. You may want to extract the contents of the archive to a specific directory. I had a 'tar.xz', so I used unxz to uncompress the file, so I got the archive file myfile.tar.
