Lars Gustäbel added the comment:
I don't have an idea how to make it easier and still meet all/most requirements
and without cluttering up the api. The way it currently works allows the
programmer to control every tiny aspect of a tar member. Maybe it's best to
simply add a new entry to the Examples section of the tarfile documentation.
import tarfile, io
with tarfile.open("sample.tar", mode="w") as tar:
t = tarfile.TarInfo("foo")
t.type = tarfile.DIRTYPE
tar.addfile(t)
b = "Hello world!".encode("ascii")
t = tarfile.TarInfo("foo/bar")
t.size = len(b)
tar.addfile(t, io.BytesIO(b))
