Archive files using command tar
Post date: Oct 17, 2014 8:04:03 AM
Unzip archived files using tar. This command unzips all the files archived in the .zip into the working directory.
tar xvf alldata_log_score.zip
If only a specific file is needed, we can specify only the file we want to extract (e.g. data/modeldata/na_alldata.sas7bdat
):
tar xvf alldata_log_score.zip data/modeldata/na_alldata.sas7bdat
You can extract the file into a different directory using "-C <path to another dir>
"
tar xvf alldata_log_score.zip data/modeldata/na_alldata.sas7bdat -C ./
