A small note about how to unpack and uncompress the most popular types of archives from the Linux command line.
Unpack [tar|tar.gz|tgz|tar.bz2|tbz2] Files in Linux
Use the following commands to extract TAR archives compressed with GZIP and BZIP2:
$ tar xvf file.tar $ tar xvzf file.tar.gz $ tar xvzf file.tar.tgz $ tar xvjf file.tar.bz2 $ tar xvjf file.tar.tbz2
Uncompress [zip|rar|bz2|gz|Z|7z] Files in Linux
Use the following commands to uncompress archives or files, compressed with ZIP, GUNZIP, RAR, BUNZIP2, COMPRESS and 7Z programs:
$ unzip file.zip $ gunzip file.gz $ unrar x file.rar $ bunzip2 file.bz2 $ uncompress file.Z $ 7z x file.7z
Extract Archives with Shell Function
You can create a bash shell function as follows (add to your ~/.bashrc):
function extract {
if [ -z "$1" ]; then
# display usage if no parameters given
echo "Usage: extract ."
else
if [ -f $1 ] ; then
# NAME=${1%.*}
# mkdir $NAME && cd $NAME
case $1 in
*.tar.bz2) tar xvjf ../$1 ;;
*.tar.gz) tar xvzf ../$1 ;;
*.tar.xz) tar xvJf ../$1 ;;
*.lzma) unlzma ../$1 ;;
*.bz2) bunzip2 ../$1 ;;
*.rar) unrar x -ad ../$1 ;;
*.gz) gunzip ../$1 ;;
*.tar) tar xvf ../$1 ;;
*.tbz2) tar xvjf ../$1 ;;
*.tgz) tar xvzf ../$1 ;;
*.zip) unzip ../$1 ;;
*.Z) uncompress ../$1 ;;
*.7z) 7z x ../$1 ;;
*.xz) unxz ../$1 ;;
*.exe) cabextract ../$1 ;;
*) echo "extract: '$1' - unknown archive method" ;;
esac
else
echo "$1 - file does not exist"
fi
fi
}

Reload .bashrc file.
$ . ~/.bashrc
Now use extract command for unpacking and uncompressing the most popular archive types:
$ extract file.rar $ extract file.tar.gz2 $ extract file.7z
Для zsh
function extract { if [ -z "$1" ]; then # display usage if no parameters given echo "Usage: extract ." else if [ -f $1 ] ; then # NAME=${1%.*} # mkdir $NAME && cd $NAME case $1 in *.tar.bz2) tar xvjf $1 ;; *.tar.gz) tar xvzf $1 ;; *.tar.xz) tar xvJf $1 ;; *.lzma) unlzma $1 ;; *.bz2) bunzip2 $1 ;; *.rar) unrar x -ad $1 ;; *.gz) gunzip $1 ;; *.tar) tar xvf $1 ;; *.tbz2) tar xvjf $1 ;; *.tgz) tar xvzf $1 ;; *.zip) unzip $1 ;; *.Z) uncompress $1 ;; *.7z) 7z x $1 ;; *.xz) unxz $1 ;; *.exe) cabextract $1 ;; *) echo "extract: '$1' - unknown archive method" ;; esac else echo "$1 - file does not exist" fi fi }
