PharData::extractTo — Extract the contents of a tar/zip archive to a directory

Descrizione

public PharData::extractTo(string $directory, array|string|null $files = null, bool $overwrite = false): bool

Extract all files within a tar/zip archive to disk. Extracted files and directories preserve permissions as stored in the archive. The optional parameters allow optional control over which files are extracted, and whether existing files on disk can be overwritten. The second parameter files can be either the name of a file or directory to extract, or an array of names of files and directories to extract. By default, this method will not overwrite existing files, the third parameter can be set to true to enable overwriting of files. This method is similar to ZipArchive::extractTo().

directory: Path to extract the given files to
files: The name of a file or directory to extract, or an array of files/directories to extract
overwrite: Set to true to enable overwriting existing files

Example #1 A PharData::extractTo() example

<?php
try {
    $phar = new PharData('myphar.tar');
    $phar->extractTo('/full/path'); // extract all files
    $phar->extractTo('/another/path', 'file.txt'); // extract only file.txt
    $phar->extractTo('/this/path',
        array('file1.txt', 'file2.txt')); // extract 2 files only
    $phar->extractTo('/third/path', null, true); // extract all files, and overwrite
} catch (Exception $e) {
    // handle errors
}
?>

Note

Nota:
Windows NTFS file systems do not support some characters in filenames, namely <|>*?":. Filenames with a trailing dot are not supported either. Contrary to some extraction tools, this method does not replace these characters with an underscore, but instead fails to extract such files.
