Midnight Commander extfslib helper library for writing extfs archive plugins.
Project description
Midnight Commander extfslib helper library for writing extfs archive plugins.
Description
Extfslib help with building Midnight Commander extf plugins, especially for those which operates on different kind of archives.
Simplest plugin built on top of this lib would be:
import extfslib
class MyArchive(extfslib.Archive):
ARCHIVER = "fancyarch"
def list(self):
if not self._contents:
return 1
for item in self._contents:
sys.stdout.buffer.write(self.ITEM % item)
arch = MyArchive('/path/to/file.fancyarch')
arch.list()
In this example class instance should be able to be called with list method. All methods:
list
copyin
copyout
rm
mkdir
rmdir
run
should be implemented if needed, since by default all of them are just defined, but not implemented.
Of course, real life example can be a little bit more complicated, since there would be possible need for adapting LINE_PAT which is regular expression for getting attributes for the list compatible with MC along with the ITEM which holds the output pattern and utilizes dictionary from LINE_PAT, CMD which maps between class and archiver commands. Possibly there might be needed some other adjustments.
