Tool (wrapper) for compression and handling multiple type of archives (Zip, GZip, RAR, 7z).
Uses system calls
Install appropriate tools before using:
apt-get install zlib1g zlib1g-dev zip rar p7zip-full
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'total_compressor'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install total_compressor
Command line:
tcomp [<key>] full_path
<key> - determines supported type of compression:
z - use Zip
g - use GZip (can't compress folder, only file)
r - use RAR
7 - use 7z
Examples:
tcomp z '/home/alex/The Lord of the Rings.txt' # creates '/home/alex/The Lord of the Rings.txt.zip'
tcomp /home/alex/Hobbit.txt.7z # creates /home/alex/Hobbit.txt
API:
require 'total_compressor'
TotalCompressor.compress('/home/alex/Hobbit.txt', 'zip') # => '/home/alex/Hobbit.txt.zip'
TotalCompressor.compress('/home/alex/Hobbit.txt', 'gzip') # => '/home/alex/Hobbit.txt.gzip'
TotalCompressor.compress('/home/alex/Hobbit.txt', 'rar') # => '/home/alex/Hobbit.txt.rar'
TotalCompressor.compress('/home/alex/Hobbit.txt', '7z') # => '/home/alex/Hobbit.txt.7z'
TotalCompressor.decompress('/home/alex/Hobbit.txt.7z') # => '/home/alex/Hobbit.txt'
