kemi helps you win at unpacking archive files with Go(a.k.a golang). Kemi supports .tar, .tar.gz .zip out of the box, with option to extend and add more support with your own or your neighbor's implementations.

• .tar

• .tar.gz

• .zip

go get github.com/gernest/kemi

say you want to unpack foo.tar.gz to path/to/bar

package main

import(
	"github.com/gernest/kemi"
)

func main(){
	
	err:=kemi.Unpack("foo.tar.gz","path/to/bar")
	if err!=nil{
		// Handle your error
	}
}

If you want to use your own unpacking implementation, please see the Unparker interface definition. And you can check on the Zip or Gz or Tar structs for how to implement.

Say you have implemented your own Unpacker named Desux for your fancy archive format sux

You wan unpack foo.sux.gz to path/to/bar like this

package main

import(
	"github.com/gernest/kemi"
)

func main(){
	
	// register the sux implementation
	kemi.Register(Desux)
	
	err:=kemi.Unpack("foo.sux.gz","path/to/bar")
	if err!=nil{
		// Handle your error
	}
}
