Features

• Reading files from archives
• Extracting files from archives
• Writing new debian archives

Examples

extern crate debarchive;

use debarchive::Archive;
use std::path::Path;

fn main() {
    let path = &Path::new("name_version_arch.deb");
    let archive = Archive::new(path).unwrap();
    archive.data(|entry| {
        if let Ok(path) = entry.path() {
            println!("data: {}", path.display());
        }
    });

    let control_map = archive.control_map().unwrap();
    println!("Control: {:#?}", control_map);
}
