VFS

VFS that allows accessing remote or enclosed files without need for replicating containers. It's original purpose was to allow recursive scanning of archives. But now it's a bit more than that.

Example

public class Example {

    public static void readFromArchive() throws IOException {
        // reading file named "enclosed.txt" from zip archive "archive.zip"
        try (InputStream i = new VfsFile(new File("archive.zip"), "enclosed.txt").open()) {
            System.out.println(IOUtils.toString(i, StandardCharsets.UTF_8));
        }
    }
    
    public static void scan() throws IOException {
        // print content of all files in zip archive "archive"
        new VfsFileScanner(file -> {
            try {
                System.out.println(file.getContentAsUTF8String());
            }
            catch (IOException ex) {
                ex.printStackTrace();
            }
        }).scan(new File("archive.zip"));
    }
