Unzip a .gz folder #33

Open maximilianlemberg-awl opened 1 year ago

Can you show a code example of unzipping a .gz folder and storing the folder on an ios device in order to access the files stored in the archive?

That would be highly appreciated.

Hi! With ".gz folderyou mean.tar.gz? This library can only do the decompression, not untar operation. You will need another tar file library to do that. ([DataCompression](https://github.com/mw99/DataCompression) can turn.tar.gzinto.tar`, but can't extract the files.) If you search the web for "ios untar library" I'm sure you will find what you need.
