async-tar

A tar archive reading/writing library for async Rust.

API Docs | Releases

Based on the great tar-rs.

Reading an archive

use async_std::io::stdin;
use async_std::prelude::*;

use async_tar::Archive;

fn main() {
    async_std::task::block_on(async {
        let mut ar = Archive::new(stdin());
        let mut entries = ar.entries().unwrap();
        while let Some(file) = entries.next().await {
            let f = file.unwrap();
            println!("{}", f.path().unwrap().display());
        }
    });
}

Writing an archive

use async_std::fs::File;
use async_tar::Builder;

fn main() {
    async_std::task::block_on(async {
        let file = File::create("foo.tar").await.unwrap();
        let mut a = Builder::new(file);

        a.append_path("README.md").await.unwrap();
        a.append_file("lib.rs", &mut File::open("src/lib.rs").await.unwrap())
            .await
            .unwrap();
    });
}
