Archive::Peek - Peek into archives without extracting them
use Archive::Peek; my $peek = Archive::Peek->new( filename => 'archive.tgz' ); my @files = $peek->files(); my $contents = $peek->file('README.txt')
This module lets you peek into archives without extracting them. It currently supports tar files and zip files. To support Bzip2- compressed files, you should install IO::Uncompress::Bunzip2.
The constructor takes the filename of the archive to peek into:
my $peek = Archive::Peek->new( filename => 'archive.tgz' );
Returns the files in the archive:
my @files = $peek->files();
Returns the contents of a file in the archive:
my $contents = $peek->file('README.txt')
