TarCreate

Overview

TarCreate builds a gzip-compressed tar archive.

Part of the archive package — Node.js analog: archiver.

Signature

go
func TarCreate(files map[string][]byte) ([]byte, error)

Compare: Node.js · Standard Go · gox

js
// Typical archiver pattern in Node.js
go
// archive/zip or archive/tar from stdlib
go
import "github.com/sahilkhaire/gox/archive"

err := archive.TarCreate(ctx, w, entries)

Example

go
import "github.com/sahilkhaire/gox/archive"

err := archive.TarCreate(ctx, w, entries)

Tips

Import github.com/sahilkhaire/gox/archive and call TarCreate directly. See the comparison below for the standard library equivalent.

Standard library alternative

gox wraps the Go standard library or a trusted dependency with Node-familiar naming. You can use the underlying library directly — see the package overview for escape hatches.
