Scalazip is a wrapper library for the 7zip command line, written in Scala. The library uses string parsing and packs 7z's arguments into a list, for portable command execution.
7zip's feature set isn't fully implemented, but the most important functionality and settings are ready to use.
This readme is a work in progress
Example use:
val options =
setThreads(0)
++ setWorkingDirectory("/path/to/files")
++ setCompressionLevel(3)
++ encryptHeader()
++ setPassword("ilovescala")
val files = List("image.bmp", "file.txt", "vm.img")
createArchive("archive.7z", files, options)In this example, 7z will compress the 3 files in the list which are assumed to be in /path/to/files. The compression level is set to 3 (from 0 to 9), header encryption is set to true and the password is set to ilovescala, with the default encryption being AES256.
setThreads(0) sets the thread count to automatic, all of your CPU threads are used.
Without the working directory option, you need to specify the absolute path to the files.
The format 7z is assumed from the file name for now.
options is a string list, containing the 7zip arguments for the respective settings. Each function used in this list returns its own string list, and so they are concatenated.
scalazip supports all archive formats that 7zip supports. This includes support for writing and reading 7zip, zip, tar, gzip, bzip2 files as well as reading rar, iso, and many more archive files.
If 7z if not in your PATH, then you need to specify a custom path to the executable (see the archive doc).
Download the library files in src and add them to your project however you wish. Import scalazip to use my library.
Documentation for the library's functions is located in the doc directory. The documentation is still a work-in-progress.
