Create a (possibly compressed) tar file from all the files under 'base_dir'. 'compress' must be "gzip" (the default), "compress", "bzip2", or None. Both "tar" and the compression utility named by 'compress' must be on the default program search path, so this is probably Unix-specific. The output tar file will be named 'base_dir' + ".tar", possibly plus the appropriate compression extension (".gz", ".bz2" or ".Z"). Return the output filename. |
Create a zip file from all the files under 'base_dir'. The output zip file will be named 'base_dir' + ".zip". Uses either the "zipfile" Python module (if available) or the InfoZIP "zip" utility (if installed and found on the default search path). If neither tool is available, raises DistutilsExecError. Returns the name of the output zip file. |
Create an archive file (eg. zip or tar). 'base_name' is the name of the file to create, minus any format-specific extension; 'format' is the archive format: one of "zip", "tar", "ztar", or "gztar". 'root_dir' is a directory that will be the root directory of the archive; ie. we typically chdir into 'root_dir' before creating the archive. 'base_dir' is the directory where we start archiving from; ie. 'base_dir' will be the common prefix of all files and directories in the archive. 'root_dir' and 'base_dir' both default to the current directory. Returns the name of the archive file. |
