I have wondered a long time how to do this and read already many manuals but dont get this to work. I want to zip with 7zip a folder to specific destination. There is in manual a guide to use -o{folder} but how does it really work?Example:7z a -t7z serverx /home/example/folder -o/home/backups/folder1How to use that -o? Destination folder exists. asked Apr 29, 2015 at 13:39 3 From man 7z: -o{Directory} Set Output directoryIt is basically the destination directory for extracting the archive. All the extracted files will be saved in the given directory. This option won't be used in case of creating the archive.Here is an example:$ 7z a -t7z check.7z file.txt -ofoo/Creating archive check.7zCompressing file.txt Everything is Ok$ lscheck.7z file.txt foo$ 7z x -t7z check.7z -ofoo/Processing archive: check.7zExtracting file.txtEverything is OkSize: 180Compressed: 221foo$ lsfile.txt answered Apr 29, 2015 at 14:05 heemaylheemayl93.6k21 gold badges211 silver badges275 bronze badges 2 To extracts into a directory, you must remove any spaces after the -ofor example, Extract zip file into a new or existing directory dir1:7z x file.zip -o./dir1Compress directory dir1 to a new zip file: 7z a newfile.zip ./dir1 answered Jun 25, 2018 at 13:32 BennyBenny5,0402 gold badges20 silver badges34 bronze badges To add all files from directory /home/example/folder to archive archive.7z in /home/backups/folder1 use:7z a -t7z /home/backups/folder1/archive.7z /home/example/folder-0 switch specifies a destination directory where files are to be extracted. answered Apr 29, 2015 at 14:05 RonRon20.9k6 gold badges59 silver badges73 bronze badges 2 You must log in to answer this question.
