tarrer

Dumb br, bz2, zip, gz, lz4, sz, xz, zstd extractor

Motivation: I can't find xz utilities for tar in alpine so created Aall-In-One...

Run

tarrer <archive path> <dest dir path>

Docker

minimal

FROM pratikbalar/tarrer:latest as tarrer
FROM alpine:latest
COPY --from=tarrer / /
RUN tarrer test.tar.xz ./

Multiplatform

FROM --platform=$BUILDPLATFORM pratikbalar/tarrer:latest as tarrer
FROM alpine:latest
COPY --from=tarrer / /
RUN tarrer test.tar.xz ./

  • tarrer-slim_* binary that built with -trimpath -ldflags "-s -w" and some of them compressed with UPX
    • tarrer-slim_*.tar.gz archived binary

• Checksum

  • *.sha256 SHA checksum of that binary *
  • *.tar.gz.sha256 SHA checksum of archive *

tarrer-slim binaries are built with flags -trimpath -ldflags "-s -w" and compressed with UPX which can lead to unexpected memory behavior or in Windows systems this may recognize as malicious.
