unzip: Extract a specific file from an archive.
$ unzip -j ${path-to-archive-zip} ${filename_in_archive1 filename_in_archive2 ---}
try on your machine
The command "unzip -j ${path-to-archive-zip} ${filename_in_archive1 filename_in_archive2 ---}" is used to extract specific files from a zip archive without creating any directories.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
- "unzip" is the command-line utility used to extract files from zip archives.
- "-j" is an option that is used to exclude directories while extracting files. It is followed by the path to the zip archive.
- "${path-to-archive-zip}" is the specific path to the zip archive file that you want to extract files from. You'll need to replace this part with the actual path to your archive file.
- "${filename_in_archive1 filename_in_archive2 ---}" represents the filenames of the files you want to extract from the archive. You can list multiple filenames separated by spaces. Again, you'll need to replace these placeholders with the actual filenames you want to extract.
By using this command, you can extract specific files from a zip archive without including any directory structure, meaning all the extracted files will be placed directly in the current directory.
