- by brett [Sun, 17 Dec 2006 08:30:32 -0500] rev 9
- [svn] Fix issues with basename methods. First, string's rsplit method only
arrived in Python 2.4, so don't use it. Second, tweak the RPM basename
method to catch the case where arch == noarch.

- [svn] Make ExtractorApplication suck less. Now the strategies for handling
different archive types are out in their own classes, and polymorphism
takes care of everything for us. This is way cleaner.
While I was at it I changed the behavior in the case where an archive
contains one directory that doesn't match the basename. I now treat that
the same as a bomb. This can lead to silly directory structures but
ensures that there's no "data" loss nor unexpected results.

- [svn] Add a test for recursive extraction which also makes sure that we fix
permissions after we extract the archive, and DTRT when an archive contains
one file. Add code to handle the latter two cases.
ExtractorApplication is a total mess at this point. I already am having a
hard time following how the pieces fit together. Cleaning it up is my next
task; that'll be easier now that I test most of the functionality again.

- by brett [Mon, 06 Nov 2006 22:36:47 -0500] rev 6
- [svn] The big thing here is recursive extraction. Find archive files in the
thing we're extracting, and extract those when we're done, if the user
provides the -r option. While I was at it:
* --help/--version switches too.
* Throw a more useful error if we get a weird encoding.
* Some other small fix I'm forgetting.
I should definitely add tests for this. I also really want to step back
and reevaluate the structure of ExtractorApplication. I don't expect it to
be a shining example of good OO anyway, but it's getting moderately hairy
now, with lots of shared state and side effects and stuff.

- by brett [Sat, 04 Nov 2006 10:34:06 -0500] rev 5
- [svn] Deal with a bunch of low-hanging fruit:
* Correctly cope with mimetype oddities I found on Fedora.
* I'm not doing anything with shar files yet, so take out that hook.
* Better error handling and reporting throughout, including a meaningful
exit code.
* Remove unused cruft from the BaseExtractor.run method.
* When reporting the "basename" for the archive, make sure it doesn't
include any preceding path.
* If the archive contains one directory whose name doesn't match the
archive basename, rename it after extraction.
- Although I just realized this probably does the wrong thing if there's
just one file in the archive.
