cli-tarHow do I use tar and gzip to compress a Python file?
tar
and gzip
are two popular tools for compressing files. To compress a Python file, you can use a combination of both tools. Here's an example command:
tar -zcvf my_python_file.tar.gz my_python_file.py
This command will create a compressed tar
archive file, my_python_file.tar.gz
, containing my_python_file.py
.
The command is composed of the following parts:
tar
: the command to create an archive file-zcvf
: the flags used to compress the archive usinggzip
my_python_file.tar.gz
: the name of the compressed archive filemy_python_file.py
: the Python file to compress
