What is the correct way to curl to stdout, then untar (a zip file in that case) to a specific directory?



This failed:



curl URL | tar -x > /path


So I thought of this which also failed:



curl URL | tar -x > /path



directory tar curl stdout

This question has been asked before and already has an answer. If those answers do not fully address your question, please ask a new question.














  • Why would you untar a zip file rather than unzipping it? Or is it a gzip file containing a tar archive? gzip and zip are two different things.

  • unzip cannot unzip from standard input, as stated in its manual page. You will have to write to a temporary file, unzip it, and delete the file.

Duplicate of How to redirect output of wget as input to unzip? (wget and curl are interchangeable in this context). Please see this answer. Replicating it here:



wget URL -O path/temp.zip; unzip -d path path/temp.zip; rm path/temp.zip


Replace URL and path accordingly.

      The || is a logical 'or' operator. It will cause the tar command to only be executed if the curl command returns a failure exit code. I asw your answer only because I offered to help new contributors to this site by offering advice, so I guess the advice would be to try out your answer before posting it. You may have meant to use the logical 'and' operator &&.
