Hi there,
I know there was a discussion going on to improve the file handling
of gradle including archive extracting stuff. Is there already an
easy built-in way to extract a tar.gz and/or a "normal" zip file?
This is an exercise for the copyspec isn't it? Unfortunately I'm not
familiar with this copyspec stuff yet.
You can use the zipFile() and tarFile() methods. These return FileTree
impls which will iterate over the contents of a ZIP or TAR file,
respectively.
Then, depending on what you want to do, you can:
- Use the FileTree API to, for example, iterate over each file in the
ZIP/TAR:
zipFile('someFile.zip').each { file -> println "doing something with
$file" }
zipFile('someFile.zip').visit { fte -> println "visiting entry
$fte.name" }
- Pass the tree to the Copy task or method to extract the ZIP/TAR into
a directory:
copy {
from zipFile('someFile.zip')
into 'some-dir'
}
copy {
from zipTree('someFile.zip')
into 'some-dir'
}
did the job.
