Class Method Details

.compress(filename, dir = Dir.pwd, args = { :type => :tar, :compression => :gzip }) ⇒ Object

Compress a directory’s files into the filename provided. The default directory is the current directory.

args is a hash that contains two values, :type and :compression.

  • :type may be :tar or :zip

  • :compression may be :gzip, :bzip2, or nil (no compression)

If the type :zip is selected, no compression will be used. Additionally, files in the .zip will all be stored as binary files.

No files in your directory that are not *real files* will be added to the archive.

See Archive::Compress for more information, and a way to compress just the files you want.
