NAME

Dpkg::Compression - simple database of available compression methods  

DESCRIPTION

This modules provides a few public functions and a public regex to interact with the set of supported compression methods.  

FUNCTIONS

@list = compression_get_list()
Returns a list of supported compression methods (sorted alphabetically).
compression_is_supported($comp)
Returns a boolean indicating whether the give compression method is known and supported.
compression_get_property($comp, $property)
Returns the requested property of the compression method. Returns undef if either the property or the compression method doesn't exist. Valid properties currently include ``file_ext'' for the file extension, ``default_level'' for the default compression level, ``comp_prog'' for the name of the compression program and ``decomp_prog'' for the name of the decompression program.
compression_guess_from_filename($filename)
Returns the compression method that is likely used on the indicated filename based on its file extension.
$regex = compression_get_file_extension_regex()
Returns a regex that matches a file extension of a file compressed with one of the supported compression methods.
$comp = compression_get_default()
Return the default compression method. It is ``xz'' unless "compression_set_default" has been used to change it.
compression_set_default($comp)
Change the default compression method. Errors out if the given compression method is not supported.
$level = compression_get_default_level()
Return the default compression level used when compressing data. It's ``9'' for ``gzip'' and ``bzip2'', ``6'' for ``xz'' and ``lzma'', unless "compression_set_default_level" has been used to change it.
compression_set_default_level($level)
Change the default compression level. Passing undef as the level will reset it to the compressor specific default, otherwise errors out if the level is not valid (see "compression_is_valid_level").
compression_is_valid_level($level)
Returns a boolean indicating whether $level is a valid compression level (it must be either a number between 1 and 9 or ``fast'' or ``best'')
