Superpack
A lightweight wrapper around Facebook's Superpack runtime used to extract files from Superpack archives (".spk", ".spo", and related formats).
Overview
Many Meta applications such as Instagram Lite, Facebook Lite, Messenger Lite, and other Android applications may package native libraries and assets using Superpack archive formats.
This project provides a simple command-line interface and Python API that automate the extraction process by invoking the bundled Java runtime and Superpack native library.
Features
- Extract ".spk" archives
- Extract ".spk.xz" archives
- Python API support
- Command-line interface
- Automatic Java detection
- ARM64 support
- Termux-friendly
- Works with archives containing one or multiple files
Installation
Install the package:
pip install .
or
pip install superpack
Usage
Command Line
Extract an archive:
superpack libs.spk
Specify output directory:
superpack -i libs.spk -o output
Show help:
superpack --help
Python API
import superpack
superpack.extract("libs.spk")
Custom output directory:
import superpack
superpack.extract( "libs.spk", output="output" )
Supported Environments
- Android (Termux)
- Linux ARM64 (aarch64)
Notes
This project is intended for research, reverse engineering, compatibility testing, and archive inspection.
The package itself does not modify application behavior and only extracts files from supported Superpack archives.
