Classes

class xtiex (*paths, list=False, join_path=False, drop_path=False, fuzzy=0, exact=False, regex=False, path=b'path', exclude=None, date=b'date', pwd=b'')

Extract files from IExpress setup self-extracting archive.

This unit extracts items with an associated virtual path from a container; each extracted item is emitted as a separate chunk with a corresponding meta variable named "path".

Positional arguments to xtiex are patterns to filter the extracted items. Use the -x flag to add an exclusion pattern. To extract all files with a foo or bar extension, but none that has the word "temp" in its path:

xtiex .foo .bar -x temp

To view only the paths of all chunks, use the listing switch:

emit data | ... | xtiex -l

Otherwise, extracted items are written to the standard output port and usually require a frame to properly process. In order to dump all extracted data to disk, the following pipeline can be used:

emit data | ... | xtiex [| dump extracted/{path} ]

The value {path} is a placeholder which is substituted by the virtual path of the extracted item. When using xtiex to unpack a file on disk, the following pattern can be useful:

ef pack.bin [| xtiex -j | d2p ]

The unit ef is also a path extractor. By specifying -j (or --join), the paths of extracted items are combined. Here, d2p is a shortcut for dump {path}. It deconflicts the joined paths with the local file system: If pack.bin contains items one.txt and two.txt, the following local file tree would be the result:

pack.bin
pack/one.txt
pack/two.txt

Finally, the -d (or --drop) switch can be used to not create (or alter) the path metadata at all, which is useful in cases where path metadata from a previous unit should be preserved.
