shutil.register_archive_format(name, function[, extra_args[, description]])
Register an archiver for the format name.
function is the callable that will be used to unpack archives. The callable will receive the base_name of the file to create, followed by the base_dir (which defaults to os.curdir
) to start archiving from. Further arguments are passed as keyword arguments: owner, group, dry_run and logger (as passed in make_archive()
).
If given, extra_args is a sequence of (name, value)
pairs that will be used as extra keywords arguments when the archiver callable is used.
description is used by get_archive_formats()
which returns the list of archivers. Defaults to an empty string.
