title: Webgen::Source::TarArchive
---
## Description
The tar archive source can be used to include the files from a (possibly gzipped) tar archive. The
used archive can be stored locally on the file system but it is also possible to use archives
accessible via the http(s) and ftp protcols.
> This extension is only available if you have installed the [archive-tar-minitar][1] library. The
> preferred way to do this is via Rubygems:
>
> gem install archive-tar-minitar
{.warning}
The first parameter for the tar archive source is the URL of the archive and the second, optional,
parameter specifies a glob (see [File.fnmatch]) for selecting the to-be-used files/directories in the
tar archive.

## Examples
The used sources can be specified via the [`sources` configuration option]({relocatable:
../reference_configuration.html#sources}), so each of the examples below can be specified in the
`config.yaml` file.
1. Using all files/directories from a local tar archive in addition the default configuration:
sources:
- [/, Webgen::Source::FileSystem, src]
- [/, Webgen::Source::TarArchive, archive.tar]
2. Using images stored in a remote gzipped tar archive in addition to the default configuration:
sources:
- [/, Webgen::Source::FileSystem, src]
- [/, Webgen::Source::TarArchive, http://www.example.com/archive/data.tgz, **/*.jpg]
