README

After discovering that PharData has a known memory leak, and is not recommended to be used at all, we needed a standard way of creating TarGz's that will be simple and portable.

This uses the fantastic code from splitbrain/php-archive and is simply a wrapper around it.

Installation

composer require clearlyphp/targz

Usage

The API is extremely simple, and there is 100% test code coverage so you can read them for detailed examples

use ClearlyPHP\Tools\TarGz;
$output = "/tmp/output.tar.gz";
$t = new TarGz($output);
$t->addSrcDir("/var/log");
$t->create();

You can configure if the directory name is included, and if it recurses into subfolders with the second and third params:

TarGz::addSrcDir(string $srcdir, bool $includedirname = true, bool $recurse = true)

Extending

If you want to extend this class, (ie, to add filters) simply modify TarGz::$files before calling create()
