Description: | Fully functional Python wrapper for libarchive. Created using SWIG. The
low-level API provides access to all of the functionality of libarchive.
The package also includes a high level python library which mimics the zipfile
and tarfile modules.
Libarchive supports the following:
- Reads a variety of formats, including tar, pax, cpio, zip, xar, lha, ar, cab,
mtree, rar, and ISO images.
- Writes tar, pax, cpio, zip, xar, ar, ISO, mtree, and shar archives.
- Automatically handles archives compressed with gzip, bzip2, lzip, xz, lzma,
or compress. |
