This module extends the support for archives in the SWI-Prolog standard library.

 archive_call(+In:istream, :Goal_2) is multi

Calls `Goal_2' on a decompressed input stream that is present in the encoded input stream `In' and the metadata object `Metas'.

Supports non-deterministically iterating over all archive members.

Uses archive_open/2 to automatically process all supporter archive filters and formats.

 archive_extension(+Extension:atom) is semidet

archive_extension(-Extension:atom) is multi

Uses the Media Type library in order to determine whether a given `Extension' is commonly used to denote an archive file.

Can also be used to enumerate such known file name extensions.

 archive_media_type(+MediaType:media_type) is semidet

archive_media_type(-MediaType:media_type) is multi

Succeeds for all and only those Media Types that denote an archive format. These are recorded in the Media Type library.

 archive_open(+In:istream, -Archive:blob) is det

Tries to open an archive of any of the supported formats, using any of the supported filters, from the input stream In.

 archive_stream(+In1:istream, -In2:istream) is det
