Archive: ezcArchiveV7Tar

[ Tutorial ] [ Class tree ] [ Element index ] [ ChangeLog ] [ Credits ]

Class: ezcArchiveV7Tar

The ezcArchiveV7Tar class implements the Tar v7 archive format. [source]

ezcArchiveV7Tar is a subclass from ezcArchive that provides the common interface. Tar v7 algorithm specific methods are implemented in this class.

ezcArchiveV7Tar reads on creation only the first ezcArchiveEntry from the archive. When needed next entries are read.

The V7 Tar algorithm is most basic implementation of Tar. This format has the following characteristics:

Filenames up to 100 characters.
Stores the file permissions.
Stores the owner and group by ID.
Stores the last modification time.
Can archive: regular files and symbolic links.
Maximum file size: 8 Gygabyte.

Methods

__construct

ezcArchiveV7Tar __construct( $file, [int $blockFactor = 20] )

Initializes the Tar and tries to read the first entry from the archive.

At initialization it sets the blockFactor to $blockFactor. Each tar archive has always $blockFactor of blocks ( 0, $blockFactor, 2 * $blockFactor, etc ).

The Tar archive works with blocks, so therefore the first parameter expects the archive as a blockFile.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
`$file`	ezcArchiveBlockFile
`$blockFactor`	int

Redefined in descendants as

Method	Description
`ezcArchiveUstarTar::__construct()`	Initializes the Tar and tries to read the first entry from the archive.
`ezcArchivePaxTar::__construct()`	Initializes the Tar and tries to read the first entry from the archive.
`ezcArchiveGnuTar::__construct()`	Initializes the Tar and tries to read the first entry from the archive.

__destruct

void __destruct( )

Closes the archive.

algorithmCanWrite

bool algorithmCanWrite( )

Returns true because the TAR_V7 algorithm can write.

Redefinition of

Method	Description
`ezcArchive::algorithmCanWrite()`	Returns true if writing to the archive is implemented, otherwise false.

Redefined in descendants as

Method	Description
`ezcArchiveUstarTar::algorithmCanWrite()`	Returns true because the TAR_USTAR algorithm can write.
`ezcArchivePaxTar::algorithmCanWrite()`	Returns false because the TAR_PAX algorithm cannot write (yet).
`ezcArchiveGnuTar::algorithmCanWrite()`	Returns false because the TAR_PAX algorithm cannot write (yet).

append

bool append( string|array(string) $files, string $prefix )

Append a file or directory to the end of the archive. Multiple files or directory can be added to the archive when an array is used as input parameter.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
`$files`	string\|array(string)	Add the files and or directories to the archive.
`$prefix`	string	First part of the path used in $files.

Throws

Class	Description
`ezcArchiveWriteException`	if one of the files cannot be written to the archive.
`ezcFileReadException`	if one of the files cannot be read from the local filesystem.
`ezcArchiveException`	if the archive is closed.

Redefinition of

Method	Description
`ezcArchive::append()`	Appends a file or directory to the end of the archive. Multiple files or directory can be added to the archive when an array is used as input parameter.

appendHeaderAndFileToCurrent

bool appendHeaderAndFileToCurrent( ezcArchiveEntry $entry )

Appends the given ezcArchiveBlockFile $file and ezcArchiveEntry $entry to the archive file.

The $entry will be used to create the correct header, whereas the $file contains the raw data that should be append to the archive.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
`$entry`	ezcArchiveEntry

appendNullBlocks

void appendNullBlocks( )

Appends zero or more null blocks to the end of the archive, so that it matches the $blockFactor.

If the archive has already the correct size, no null blocks will be appended. Otherwise as many null blocks are appended (up to $blockFactor - 1) so that it matches the $blockFactor.

appendToCurrent

bool appendToCurrent( string|array(string) $files, string $prefix )

Appends a file to the archive after the current entry.

One or multiple files can be added directly after the current file. The remaining entries after the current are removed from the archive!

The $files can either be a string or an array of strings. Which, respectively, represents a single file or multiple files.

$prefix specifies the begin part of the $files path that should not be included in the archive. The files in the archive are always stored relatively.

Example:

1.  $tar = ezcArchive( "/tmp/my_archive.tar", ezcArchive::TAR );
2.  
3.  // Append two files to the end of the archive.
4.   $tar->seek( 0, SEEK_END );
5.  $tar->appendToCurrent( array( "/home/rb/file1.txt", "/home/rb/file2.txt" ), "/home/rb/" );

When multiple files are added to the archive at the same time, thus using an array, does not necessarily produce the same archive as repeatively adding one file to the archive. For example, the Tar archive format, can detect that files hardlink to each other and will store it in a more efficient way.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
`$files`	string\|array(string)	Array or a single path to a file.
`$prefix`	string	First part of the path used in $files.

Throws

Class	Description
`ezcArchiveWriteException`	if one of the files cannot be written to the archive.
`ezcFileReadException`	if one of the files cannot be read from the local filesystem.
`ezcArchiveException`	if the archive is closed.

Redefinition of

Method	Description
`ezcArchive::appendToCurrent()`	Appends a file to the archive after the current entry.

close

void close( )

Closes the archive correctly.

Redefinition of

Method	Description
`ezcArchive::close()`	Close the current archive.

createTarHeader

ezcArchiveV7Header createTarHeader( [string|null $file = null] )

Creates the a new tar header for this class.

Usually this class is reimplemented by other Tar algorithms, and therefore it returns another Tar header.

This method expects an ezcArchiveBlockFile that points to the header that should be read (and created). If null is given as block file, an empty header will be created.

Parameters

`ezcArchiveGnuTar::getAlgorithm()`	Returns the value which specifies a TAR_GNU algorithm.

readCurrentFromArchive

bool readCurrentFromArchive( )

Read the current entry from the archive.

The current entry from the archive is read, if possible. This method will set the $completed to true, if the end of the archive is reached. The $entriesRead will be increased, if the entry is correctly read.

Throws

Class	Description
`ezcArchiveBlockSizeException`	if the file is empty or if the file is not valid

truncate

bool truncate( [int $fileNumber = 0] )

Truncates the archive to $fileNumber of files.

The $fileNumber parameter specifies the amount of files that should remain. If the default value, zero, is used then the entire archive file is cleared.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
`$fileNumber`	int

Throws

Class	Description
`ezcArchiveException`	if the archive is closed
`ezcBaseFilePermissionException`	if the file is read-only or if the current algorithm cannot write

`ezcArchive::truncate()`	Truncates the archive to $fileNumber of files.

writeCurrentDataToFile

bool writeCurrentDataToFile( string $targetPath )

Writes the file data from the current entry to the given file.

Name	Type	Description
`$targetPath`	string	The absolute or relative path of the target file.

Redefinition of

Method	Description
