Library Usage

Note: The API is not solidified yet. I'll try to keep this guide up-to-date.

Example Code

To load a package of any supported format, use the PackageReader.ReadPackageFromFile function. It returns an AbstractPackage instance. AbstractPackage implements IDisposable so be sure to manually call Dispose() or use a using block, or else the file will be left open until your program quits.

using GameArchives;

static class Examples
{
  // Example: Extracting a file called "img.png" from the root of a package:
  public static void ExtractFile()
  {
    using (var pkg = PackageReader.ReadPackageFromFile(@"C:\data\file.pkg"))
    {
      if(pkg.RootDirectory.TryGetFile("img.png", out var file1))
      {
        using (var fstream = file1.GetStream())
        using (var ostream = File.OpenWrite(@"C:\data\img.png"))
        {
          fstream.CopyTo(ostream);
        }
      }
    }
  }
}
