grunt-untar-new

> A grunt task to decompress/extract tar files, implemented with streams.

The "untar" task

$3

In your project's Gruntfile, add a section named untar to the data object passed into grunt.initConfig().

``js
grunt.initConfig({
untar: {
options: {
// Task-specific options go here.
},
your_target: {
// Target-specific file lists and/or options go here.
},
},
});
`

$3

#### options.mode
Type: String
Default value: ''

The decompression mode. Currently supports tar and tgz.
Automatically detected per dest:src pair, but can be overridden per target if desired.

$3

#### Default Options
In this example, the default options are used to decompress the passed tgz archive.

`js
grunt.initConfig({
untar: {
files: {
'dest/default_options': 'src/testing.tgz',
},
},
});
`

#### Custom Options
In this example, the mode option is used to inform the task that the tar must be unzipped before the extraction, as
this cannot be deduced from the extension.

`js
grunt.initConfig({
untar: {
options: {
mode: 'tgz'
},
files: {
'dest/with_mode': 'test/fixtures/fixtures.tgz.dummyext'
}
},
});
`
