Rename files and folders #43

Closed fabri9532 closed 11 months ago

fabri9532 commented 4 years ago

Is there a method to rename files and folders inside the compressed file? If it doesn't exist, can it be implemented?

Fabrizio.

rikyoz commented 4 years ago

Hi Fabrizio! Unfortunately, at the moment there is no such method. However, it should be possible to implement such a feature, even though it may require quite a few changes in both the external API and internal code of bit7z. Hopefully, I'll be able to implement it in the next stable version. Riccardo

Is this thread still open for contribution ?

rikyoz commented 3 years ago

Hi! Yeah, sure! I'm still working on implementing this feature; unfortunately, it requires a lot of changes in the internal code of bit7z. During these last months, I've been busy with my main job, but now I'm going back to work on bit7z. I hope to finish this and the other pending features asap. Anyway, I'm open to any helpful contribution!

Implemented in v4.0.0.

Now the BitArchiveEditor can be used for renaming/deleting files and folders inside archives.

Example:

BitArchiveEditor editor{ lib, "path/to/archive.7z", BitFormat::SevenZip };

// Set compressed_file1.txt to be renamed as compressed_file.txt.
editor.renameItem("compressed_file1.txt", "compressed_file.txt"); 

// Set folder/compressed_file2.txt to be deleted from the archive.
editor.deleteItem("folder/compressed_file2.txt");

// Applying the requested changes
editor.applyChanges();
