Struct sciter::host::Archive

pub struct Archive(_);

Sciter compressed archive.

An archive is produced by packfolder tool (from SDK) that creates a single blob with compressed resources. It allows to use the same resource pack uniformly across different platforms.

For example, app resource files (HTML/CSS/scripts) can be stored in an assets folder that can be packed into a single archive by calling packfolder.exe assets target/assets.rc -binary. And later it can be accessed via the Archive API explicitly:

let archived = include_bytes!("target/assets.rc");
let assets = sciter::host::Archive::open(archived).expect("Unable to load archive.");

// access `assets/index.htm`
let html_data = assets.get("index.htm").unwrap();

or implicitly via the this://app/ URL after registering the archive via Window::archive_handler:

let archived = include_bytes!("target/assets.rc");
let mut frame = sciter::Window::new();
frame.archive_handler(archived).expect("Unable to load archive");
frame.load("this://app/index.htm");
