New submission from Serhiy Storchaka: The proposed patch adds the members parameter for TarFile.list() with the same meaning as in TarFile.extractall(). This is needed for implementing the tar command utility which allows filtering and transforming an output (e.g. output numerical ids instead names for owner/group).
An alternative approach is to add the filter parameter (as in TarFile.add()) to both TarFile.list() and TarFile.extractall(). ---------- components: Library (Lib) files: tarfile_list_members.patch keywords: patch messages: 218866 nosy: lars.gustaebel, serhiy.storchaka priority: normal severity: normal stage: patch review status: open title: Add the members parameter for TarFile.list() type: enhancement versions: Python 3.5 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file35307/tarfile_list_members.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue21549> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
