Introducing extract v2.0 - a simple utility and GO library to extract different archive types.
Package extract attempts to make it simple to decompress the compatible archive formats.
The extract command can be ran with no flags to decompress all compatible archive bundles in the current directory in place. It can also be ran with the following flags:
-f FILE | --flag=FILE
to decomress a single bundle. This flag may be used more than once if there are multiple bundles.
-d DIR | --dest=DIR
Sets a destination directory for the archives to be extracted into. By default this is set to the current working directory.
-c INT | --count=INT
Sets the number of concurrent extractions that can take place. By default this is set to 4.
-h | --help
Displays the help text
--version
Displays the version of extract in use.
The extract tool now has the ability to run with concurrent extractions, by default 4. Previous versions of the tool ran in serial which was somewhat slow.
The following archive/compression types are supported by extract:
- gzip
- tar
- zip
- rar (without password)
- bzip
- More to be added...
