It provides class methods for quick and easy files handling +while also allowing for the creation of tar file objects for custom +manipulation. If you have the IO::Zlib module installed, +Archive::Tar will also support compressed or gzipped tar files. + +An object of class Archive::Tar represents a .tar(.gz) archive full +of files and things. + +=head1 Object Methods + +=head2 Archive::Tar->new( [$file, $compressed] ) + +Returns a new Tar object. If given any arguments, C<new()> calls the +C<read()> method automatically, passing on the arguments provided to +the C<read()> method. + +If C<new()> is invoked with arguments and the C<read()> method fails +for any reason, C<new()> returns undef. + +=cut + +my $tmpl = { + _data => [ ], + _file => 'Unknown', +}; + +### install get/set accessors for this object. +for my $key ( keys %$tmpl ) { + no strict 'refs'; + *{__PACKAGE__."::$key"} = sub { + my $self = shift; + $self->{$key} = $_[0] if @_; + return $self->{$key}; + } +} + +sub new { + my $class = shift; + $class = ref $class if ref $class; + + ### copying $tmpl here since a shallow copy makes it use the + ### same aref, causing for files to remain in memory always. + my $obj = bless { _data => [ ], _file => 'Unknown', _error => '' }, $class; + + if (@_) { + unless ( $obj->read( @_ ) ) { + $obj->_error(qq[No data could be read from file]); + return; + } + } + + return $obj; +} + +=head2 $tar->read ( $filename|$handle, [$compressed, {opt => 'val'}] ) + +Read the given tar file into memory. +The first argument can either be the name of a file or a reference to +an already open filehandle (or an IO::Zlib object if it's compressed) + +The C<read> will I<replace> any previous content in C<$tar>! + +The second argument may be considered optional, but remains for +backwards compatibility. Archive::Tar now looks at the file +magic to determine what class should be used to open the file +and will transparently Do The Right Thing. + +Archive::Tar will warn if you try to pass a bzip2 compressed file and the +IO::Zlib / IO::Uncompress::Bunzip2 modules are not available and simply return. + +Note that you can currently B<not> pass a C<gzip> compressed +filehandle, which is not opened with C<IO::Zlib>, a C<bzip2> compressed +filehandle, which is not opened with C<IO::Uncompress::Bunzip2>, nor a string +containing the full archive information (either compressed or +uncompressed). These are worth while features, but not currently +implemented. See the C<TODO> section. + +The third argument can be a hash reference with options. Note that +all options are case-sensitive. + +=over 4 + +=item limit + +Do not read more than C<limit> files. This is useful if you have +very big archives, and are only interested in the first few files. + +=item filter + +Can be set to a regular expression. Only files with names that match +the expression will be read. + +=item extract + +If set to true, immediately extract entries when reading them. This +gives you the same memory break as the C<extract_archive> function. +Note however that entries will not be read into memory, but written +straight to disk. This means no C<Archive::Tar::File> objects are +created for you to inspect. + +=back + +All files are stored internally as C<Archive::Tar::File> objects. +Please consult the L<Archive::Tar::File> documentation for details. + +Returns the number of files read in scalar context, and a list of +C<Archive::Tar::File> objects in list context. + +=cut + +sub read { + my $self = shift; + my $file = shift; + my $gzip = shift || 0; + my $opts = shift || {}; + + unless( defined $file ) { + $self->_error( qq[No file to read from!] ); + return; + } else { + $self->_file( $file ); + } + + my $handle = $self->_get_handle($file, $gzip, READ_ONLY->( ZLIB ) ) + or return; + + my $data = $self->_read_tar( $handle, $opts ) or return; + + $self->_data( $data ); + + return wantarray ? @$data : scalar @$data; +} + +sub _get_handle { + my $self = shift; + my $file = shift; return unless defined $file; + return $file if ref $file; + my $compress = shift || 0; + my $mode = shift || READ_ONLY->( ZLIB ); # default to read only + + + ### get a FH opened to the right class, so we can use it transparently + ### throughout the program + my $fh; + { ### reading magic only makes sense if we're opening a file for + ### reading. otherwise, just use what the user requested. + my $magic = ''; + if( MODE_READ->($mode) ) { + open my $tmp, $file or do { + $self->_error( qq[Could not open '$file' for reading: $!] ); + return; + }; + + ### read the first 4 bites of the file to figure out which class to + ### use to open the file. + sysread( $tmp, $magic, 4 ); + close $tmp; + } + + ### is it bzip? + ### if you asked specifically for bzip compression, or if we're in + ### read mode and the magic numbers add up, use bzip + if( BZIP and ( + ($compress eq COMPRESS_BZIP) or + ( MODE_READ->($mode) and $magic =~ BZIP_MAGIC_NUM ) + ) + ) { + + ### different reader/writer modules, different error vars... sigh + if( MODE_READ->($mode) ) { + $fh = IO::Uncompress::Bunzip2->new( $file ) or do { + $self->_error( qq[Could not read '$file': ] . + $IO::Uncompress::Bunzip2::Bunzip2Error + ); + return; + }; + + } else { + $fh = IO::Compress::Bzip2->new( $file ) or do { + $self->_error( qq[Could not write to '$file': ] . + $IO::Compress::Bzip2::Bzip2Error + ); + return; + }; + } + + ### is it gzip? + ### if you asked for compression, if you wanted to read or the gzip + ### magic number is present (redundant with read) + } elsif( ZLIB and ( + $compress or MODE_READ->($mode) or $magic =~ GZIP_MAGIC_NUM + ) + ) { + $fh = IO::Zlib->new; + + unless( $fh->open( $file, $mode ) ) { + $self->_error(qq[Could not create filehandle for '$file': $!]); + return; + } + + ### is it plain tar? + } else { + $fh = IO::File->new; + + unless( $fh->open( $file, $mode ) ) { + $self->_error(qq[Could not create filehandle for '$file': $!]); + return; + } + + ### enable bin mode on tar archives + binmode $fh; + } + } + + return $fh; +} + + +sub _read_tar { + my $self = shift; + my $handle = shift or return; + my $opts = shift || {}; + + my $count = $opts->{limit} || 0; + my $filter = $opts->{filter}; + my $extract = $opts->{extract} || 0; + + ### set a cap on the amount of files to extract ### + my $limit = 0; + $limit = 1 if $count > 0; + + my $tarfile = [ ]; + my $chunk; + my $read = 0; + my $real_name; # to set the name of a file when + # we're encountering @longlink + my $data; + + LOOP: + while( $handle->read( $chunk, HEAD ) ) { + ### IO::Zlib doesn't support this yet + my $offset = eval { tell $handle } || 'unknown'; + + unless( $read++ ) { + my $gzip = GZIP_MAGIC_NUM; + if( $chunk =~ /$gzip/ ) { + $self->_error( qq[Cannot read compressed format in tar-mode] ); + return; + } + + ### size is < HEAD, which means a corrupted file, as the minimum + ### length is _at least_ HEAD + if (length $chunk != HEAD) { + $self->_error( qq[Cannot read enough bytes from the tarfile] ); + return; + } + } + + ### if we can't read in all bytes... ### + last if length $chunk != HEAD; + + ### Apparently this should really be two blocks of 512 zeroes, + ### but GNU tar sometimes gets it wrong.

Default is C<0>, which +means the symlink stays intact. Of course, you will have to pack the +file linked to as well. + +This option is checked when you write out the tarfile using C<write> +or C<create_archive>. + +This works just like C</bin/tar>'s C<-h> option. + +=head2 $Archive::Tar::CHOWN + +By default, C<Archive::Tar> will try to C<chown> your files if it is +able to. In some cases, this may not be desired. In that case, set +this variable to C<0> to disable C<chown>-ing, even if it were +possible. + +The default is C<1>. + +=head2 $Archive::Tar::CHMOD + +By default, C<Archive::Tar> will try to C<chmod> your files to +whatever mode was specified for the particular file in the archive. +In some cases, this may not be desired. In that case, set this +variable to C<0> to disable C<chmod>-ing. + +The default is C<1>. + +=head2 $Archive::Tar::SAME_PERMISSIONS + +When, C<$Archive::Tar::CHMOD> is enabled, this setting controls whether +the permissions on files from the archive are used without modification +of if they are filtered by removing any setid bits and applying the +current umask. + +The default is C<1> for the root user and C<0> for normal users. + +=head2 $Archive::Tar::DO_NOT_USE_PREFIX + +By default, C<Archive::Tar> will try to put paths that are over +100 characters in the C<prefix> field of your tar header, as +defined per POSIX-standard. However, some (older) tar programs +do not implement this spec. To retain compatibility with these older +or non-POSIX compliant versions, you can set the C<$DO_NOT_USE_PREFIX> +variable to a true value, and C<Archive::Tar> will use an alternate +way of dealing with paths over 100 characters by using the +C<GNU Extended Header> feature. + +Note that clients who do not support the C<GNU Extended Header> +feature will not be able to read these archives. Such clients include +tars on C<Solaris>, C<Irix> and C<AIX>. + +The default is C<0>. + +=head2 $Archive::Tar::DEBUG + +Set this variable to C<1> to always get the C<Carp::longmess> output +of the warnings, instead of the regular C<carp>. This is the same +message you would get by doing: + + $tar->error(1); + +Defaults to C<0>. + +=head2 $Archive::Tar::WARN + +Set this variable to C<0> if you do not want any warnings printed. +Personally I recommend against doing this, but people asked for the +option. Also, be advised that this is of course not threadsafe. + +Defaults to C<1>. + +=head2 $Archive::Tar::error + +Holds the last reported error. Kept for historical reasons, but its +use is very much discouraged. Use the C<error()> method instead: + + warn $tar->error unless $tar->extract; + +Note that in older versions of this module, the C<error()> method +would return an effectively global value even when called an instance +method as above. This has since been fixed, and multiple instances of +C<Archive::Tar> now have separate error strings. + +=head2 $Archive::Tar::INSECURE_EXTRACT_MODE + +This variable indicates whether C<Archive::Tar> should allow +files to be extracted outside their current working directory. + +Allowing this could have security implications, as a malicious +tar archive could alter or replace any file the extracting user +has permissions to. Therefor, the default is to not allow +insecure extractions. + +If you trust the archive, or have other reasons to allow the +archive to write files outside your current working directory, +set this variable to C<true>. + +Note that this is a backwards incompatible change from version +C<1.36> and before. + +=head2 $Archive::Tar::HAS_PERLIO + +This variable holds a boolean indicating if we currently have +C<perlio> support loaded. This will be enabled for any perl +greater than C<5.8> compiled with C<perlio>. + +If you feel strongly about disabling it, set this variable to +C<false>. Note that you will then need C<IO::String> installed +to support writing stringified archives. + +Don't change this variable unless you B<really> know what you're +doing. + +=head2 $Archive::Tar::HAS_IO_STRING + +This variable holds a boolean indicating if we currently have +C<IO::String> support loaded. This will be enabled for any perl +that has a loadable C<IO::String> module. + +If you feel strongly about disabling it, set this variable to +C<false>. Note that you will then need C<perlio> support from +your perl to be able to write stringified archives. + +Don't change this variable unless you B<really> know what you're +doing. + +=head1 FAQ + +=over 4 + +=item What's the minimum perl version required to run Archive::Tar? + +You will need perl version 5.005_03 or newer. + +=item Isn't Archive::Tar slow? + +Yes it is. It's pure perl, so it's a lot slower then your C</bin/tar> +However, it's very portable. If speed is an issue, consider using +C</bin/tar> instead. + +=item Isn't Archive::Tar heavier on memory than /bin/tar? + +Yes it is, see previous answer. Since C<Compress::Zlib> and therefore +C<IO::Zlib> doesn't support C<seek> on their filehandles, there is little +choice but to read the archive into memory. +This is ok if you want to do in-memory manipulation of the archive. + +If you just want to extract, use the C<extract_archive> class method +instead. It will optimize and write to disk immediately. + +Another option is to use the C<iter> class method to iterate over +the files in the tarball without reading them all in memory at once. + +=item Can you lazy-load data instead? + +In some cases, yes. You can use the C<iter> class method to iterate +over the files in the tarball without reading them all in memory at once. + +=item How much memory will an X kb tar file need? + +Probably more than X kb, since it will all be read into memory. If +this is a problem, and you don't need to do in memory manipulation +of the archive, consider using the C<iter> class method, or C</bin/tar> +instead. + +=item What do you do with unsupported filetypes in an archive? + +C<Unix> has a few filetypes that aren't supported on other platforms, +like C<Win32>. If we encounter a C<hardlink> or C<symlink> we'll just +try to make a copy of the original file, rather than throwing an error. + +This does require you to read the entire archive in to memory first, +since otherwise we wouldn't know what data to fill the copy with. +(This means that you cannot use the class methods, including C<iter> +on archives that have incompatible filetypes and still expect things +to work). + +For other filetypes, like C<chardevs> and C<blockdevs> we'll warn that +the extraction of this particular item didn't work. + +=item I'm using WinZip, or some other non-POSIX client, and files are not being extracted properly! + +By default, C<Archive::Tar> is in a completely POSIX-compatible +mode, which uses the POSIX-specification of C<tar> to store files. +For paths greather than 100 characters, this is done using the +C<POSIX header prefix>. Non-POSIX-compatible clients may not support +this part of the specification, and may only support the C<GNU Extended +Header> functionality. To facilitate those clients, you can set the +C<$Archive::Tar::DO_NOT_USE_PREFIX> variable to C<true>. See the +C<GLOBAL VARIABLES> section for details on this variable. + +Note that GNU tar earlier than version 1.14 does not cope well with +the C<POSIX header prefix>. If you use such a version, consider setting +the C<$Archive::Tar::DO_NOT_USE_PREFIX> variable to C<true>. + +=item How do I extract only files that have property X from an archive? + +Sometimes, you might not wish to extract a complete archive, just +the files that are relevant to you, based on some criteria. + +You can do this by filtering a list of C<Archive::Tar::File> objects +based on your criteria. For example, to extract only files that have +the string C<foo> in their title, you would use: + + $tar->extract( + grep { $_->full_path =~ /foo/ } $tar->get_files + ); + +This way, you can filter on any attribute of the files in the archive. +Consult the C<Archive::Tar::File> documentation on how to use these +objects. + +=item How do I access .tar.Z files? + +The C<Archive::Tar> module can optionally use C<Compress::Zlib> (via +the C<IO::Zlib> module) to access tar files that have been compressed +with C<gzip>. Unfortunately tar files compressed with the Unix C<compress> +utility cannot be read by C<Compress::Zlib> and so cannot be directly +accesses by C<Archive::Tar>. + +If the C<uncompress> or C<gunzip> programs are available, you can use +one of these workarounds to read C<.tar.Z> files from C<Archive::Tar> + +Firstly with C<uncompress> + + use Archive::Tar; + + open F, "uncompress -c $filename |"; + my $tar = Archive::Tar->new(*F); + ... + +and this with C<gunzip> + + use Archive::Tar; + + open F, "gunzip -c $filename |"; + my $tar = Archive::Tar->new(*F); + ... + +Similarly, if the C<compress> program is available, you can use this to +write a C<.tar.Z> file + + use Archive::Tar; + use IO::File; + + my $fh = new IO::File "| compress -c >$filename"; + my $tar = Archive::Tar->new(); + ... + $tar->write($fh); + $fh->close ; + +=item How do I handle Unicode strings? + +C<Archive::Tar> uses byte semantics for any files it reads from or writes +to disk. This is not a problem if you only deal with files and never +look at their content or work solely with byte strings. But if you use +Unicode strings with character semantics, some additional steps need +to be taken. + +For example, if you add a Unicode string like + + # Problem + $tar->add_data('file.txt', "Euro: \x{20AC}"); + +then there will be a problem later when the tarfile gets written out +to disk via C<$tar->write()>: + + Wide character in print at .../Archive/Tar.pm line 1014. + +The data was added as a Unicode string and when writing it out to disk, +the C<:utf8> line discipline wasn't set by C<Archive::Tar>, so Perl +tried to convert the string to ISO-8859 and failed. The written file +now contains garbage. + +For this reason, Unicode strings need to be converted to UTF-8-encoded +bytestrings before they are handed off to C<add_data()>: + + use Encode; + my $data = "Accented character: \x{20AC}"; + $data = encode('utf8', $data); + + $tar->add_data('file.txt', $data); + +A opposite problem occurs if you extract a UTF8-encoded file from a +tarball. Using C<get_content()> on the C<Archive::Tar::File> object +will return its content as a bytestring, not as a Unicode string. + +If you want it to be a Unicode string (because you want character +semantics with operations like regular expression matching), you need +to decode the UTF8-encoded content and have Perl convert it into +a Unicode string: + + use Encode; + my $data = $tar->get_content(); + + # Make it a Unicode string + $data = decode('utf8', $data); + +There is no easy way to provide this functionality in C<Archive::Tar>, +because a tarball can contain many files, and each of which could be +encoded in a different way. + +=back + +=head1 CAVEATS + +The AIX tar does not fill all unused space in the tar archive with 0x00. +This sometimes leads to warning messages from C<Archive::Tar>. + + Invalid header block at offset nnn + +A fix for that problem is scheduled to be released in the following levels +of AIX, all of which should be coming out in the 4th quarter of 2009: + + AIX 5.3 TL7 SP10 + AIX 5.3 TL8 SP8 + AIX 5.3 TL9 SP5 + AIX 5.3 TL10 SP2 + + AIX 6.1 TL0 SP11 + AIX 6.1 TL1 SP7 + AIX 6.1 TL2 SP6 + AIX 6.1 TL3 SP3 + +The IBM APAR number for this problem is IZ50240 (Reported component ID: +5765G0300 / AIX 5.3).
