20 This is a fork of Archive::Any by Michael Schwern and Clint Moore. The
21 main difference is this works properly even when you fork(), and may
22 require less memory to extract a tarball. On the other hand, this isn't
23 pluggable (this only supports file formats used in the CPAN
24 toolchains), and this doesn't check mime types (at least as of this
25 writing).
26
28 new
29 my $archive = Archive::Any::Lite->new($archive_file);
30 my $archive = Archive::Any::Lite->new($archive_file, {tar_filter => qr/foo/});
31
32 Creates an object. You can pass an optional hash reference for finer
33 control.
34
35 extract
36 $archive->extract;
37 $archive->extract($directory);
38 $archive->extract($directory, {tar_filter => qr/foo/});
39
40 Extracts the files in the archive to the given $directory. If no
41 $directory is given, it will go into the current working directory.
42
43 You can pass an optional hash reference for finer control. If passed,
44 options passed in "new" will be ignored.
45
46 files
47 my @file = $archive->files;
48
49 A list of files in the archive.
50
51 is_impolite
52 my $is_impolite = $archive->is_impolite;
53
54 Checks to see if this archive is going to unpack into the current
55 directory rather than create its own.
56
57 is_naughty
58 my $is_naughty = $archive->is_naughty;
59
60 Checks to see if this archive is going to unpack outside the current
61 directory.
62
63 type
64 Deprecated. For backward compatibility only.
65
67 $IGNORE_SYMLINK
68 If set to true, symlinks (and hardlinks for tarball) will be ignored.
