Hey, For large archives, I want to display a progress bar while the archive is being extracted with:
https://docs.python.org/3/library/tarfile.html#tarfile.TarFile.extractall I could write my own version of extractall() to do this, or maybe we could introduce a callback option that gets called everytime .extract() is called in extractall() The callback can receive the tarinfo object and where it's being extracted. This is enough to plug a progress bar and avoid reinventing .extractall() I can add a ticket and maybe a patch if people think this is a good little enhancement Cheers Tarek -- Tarek Ziadé | coding: https://ziade.org | running: https://foule.es | twitter: @tarek_ziade _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list Python-ideas@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-ideas Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
