Crate rars 

High-level RAR archive API.

This crate is the public facade over the version-specific format modules. It detects archive families, exposes common member metadata, and streams extraction or recovery output to caller-provided writers without requiring callers to buffer whole archives in memory.

Modules

rar50

rar15_40

Archive reader facade with signature-based dispatch.

Constants

SFX_SCAN_LIMIT

Default upper bound for scanning past an SFX stub when looking for the RAR signature. Most installers in the wild place the archive within a few hundred KiB, but large SFX modules (notably WinRAR’s own installer plus a bundled runtime) can push the offset past 1 MiB.

Functions

detect_archive_family

extract_volumes_to

Streams a multivolume archive set to caller-provided writers.

extract_volumes_to_with_options

Streams a multivolume archive set to caller-provided writers with read options.
