BZip2

Operations and tasks for working with tar archives compressed with BZip2.

Functions and values

Function or value	Description
`compress` Signature: FileInfo -> seq<ArchiveFileSpec> -> unit	Constructs a function that will create a tar.bz2 archive from a set of files.
`Compress(...)` Signature: flatten:bool -> baseDir:DirectoryInfo -> archiveFile:FileInfo -> files:seq<FileInfo> -> unit	Creates a tar.bz2 archive with the given files. Parameters `flatten` - If set to true then all subfolders are merged into the root folder of the archive. `baseDir` - The relative directory of the files to be compressed. Use this parameter to influence directory structure within the archive. `archiveFile` - The output archive file. If existing, will be overwritten. `files` - A sequence of files to compress.
`CompressDir flatten baseDir archiveFile` Signature: flatten:bool -> baseDir:DirectoryInfo -> archiveFile:FileInfo -> unit	Creates a tar.bz2 archive containing all the files in a directory. Parameters `flatten` - If set to true then all subfolders are merged into the root folder of the archive. `baseDir` - The base directory to be compressed. This directory will be the root of the resulting archive. `archiveFile` - The output archive file. If existing, will be overwritten.
`CompressDirWithDefaults(...)` Signature: baseDir:DirectoryInfo -> archiveFile:FileInfo -> unit	Creates a tar.bz2 archive containing all the files in a directory. Parameters `baseDir` - The base directory to be compressed. This directory will be the root of the resulting archive. `archiveFile` - The output archive file. If existing, will be overwritten.
`CompressSpecs archiveFile fileSpecs` Signature: archiveFile:FileInfo -> fileSpecs:seq<ArchiveFileSpec> -> unit	Creates a tar.bz2 archive with the given archive file specifications. Parameters `archiveFile` - The output archive file. If existing, will be overwritten. `fileSpecs` - A sequence of archive file specifications.
`compressStream` Signature: Stream -> TarOutputStream	Wraps an output stream with a tar.bz2 compressor.
`CompressWithDefaults(...)` Signature: baseDir:DirectoryInfo -> archiveFile:FileInfo -> files:seq<FileInfo> -> unit	Creates a tar.bz2 archive with the given files with default parameters. Parameters `baseDir` - The relative directory of the files to be compressed. Use this parameter to influence directory structure within the archive. `archiveFile` - The output archive file. If existing, will be overwritten. `files` - A sequence of files to compress.
`createFile(file)` Signature: file:FileInfo -> TarOutputStream	Creates a `TarOutputStream` wrapping a file. Parameters `file` - The `FileInfo` describing the location to which the archive should be written. Will be overwritten if it exists.
`extract extractDir archiveFile` Signature: extractDir:DirectoryInfo -> archiveFile:FileInfo -> unit	Extracts a tar.bz2 archive to a given directory. Parameters `extractDir` - The directory into which the archived files will be extracted. `archiveFile` - The archive to be extracted.
`extractStream` Signature: Stream -> TarInputStream	Wraps an input stream with a tar.gz decompressor.
