NAME
       Alien::Build::Plugin::Extract::ArchiveTar - Plugin to extract a tarball
       using Archive::Tar

VERSION
       version 2.80

SYNOPSIS
        use alienfile;
        plugin 'Extract::ArchiveTar' => (
          format => 'tar.gz',
        );

DESCRIPTION
       Note: in most case you will want to use
       Alien::Build::Plugin::Extract::Negotiate instead.  It picks the
       appropriate Extract plugin based on your platform and environment.  In
       some cases you may need to use this plugin directly instead.

       This plugin extracts from an archive in tarball format (optionally
       compressed by either gzip or bzip2) using Archive::Tar.

PROPERTIES
   format
       Gives a hint as to the expected format.  This helps make sure the
       prerequisites are set correctly, since compressed archives require
       extra Perl modules to be installed.

METHODS
   handles
        Alien::Build::Plugin::Extract::ArchiveTar->handles($ext);
        $plugin->handles($ext);

       Returns true if the plugin is able to handle the archive of the given
       format.

   available
        Alien::Build::Plugin::Extract::ArchiveTar->available($ext);

       Returns true if the plugin has what it needs right now to extract from
       the given format
