EasyArchive aims to be the app to have for both casual and power users that just need to unzip that archive.
This app supports the inflation of 7z, bzip2, gzip, jar, lzma, pack200, rar, tar, xz, and zip archives.
##The Project, Explained
###The App
All Android UI components are stored in the app module.
###The Library
Note: If you come from a Windows background or do not understand the difference between archiving and compression, please read this article
The Easy Archive library module is what powers the app. It revolves around the Inflater interface. All classes that aim to provide archive-extracting functionality must implement this class. Each Inflater takes off a "layer" of compression or extracts the files. For example, the GzipInflater would take an input file of sample.tar.gz and produce an output file of sample.tar. Note that what the user would really want is to extract the files in the tar archive, and for that we would use the TarInflater class to finish the job.
For ease of use, the library comes with the InflaterAggregation class, which will automatically invoke the correct Inflaters for the given input archive. For example, InflaterAggregation would take an input file of sample.tar.gz and produce an output of the contents of the underlying tar file.
###The Scripts
The scripts that make testing the app and library are found in the scripts/ directory. The two bash scripts that are found here are mk.sh and pu.sh.
####mk.sh
This script makes several archives all from one common directory: the sources folder.
####pu.sh
This script uses adb to push all of the archives created from mk.sh to the currently connected Android device at /mnt/sdcard/
