PharData::extractTo — Extract the contents of a tar/zip archive to a directory
$pathto
[, string|array|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().
pathto
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
returns TRUE
on success, but it is better to check for thrown exception,
and assume success if none is thrown.
Throws PharException if errors occur while flushing changes to disk.
Beispiel #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
}
?>
