Is there any way to extract file(filename.log.txz) with extension txz and list folder/filename after extraction in python. I tried with module tarfile which throwing error "AttributeError: module 'tarfile' has no attribute 'open'".
Note: My expectation is to extract txz file list all files/folder inside extracted file and look for required filename.
Python version: 3.6.8`
code****
import os
import tarfile
filename = sys.argv[1]
print(filename)
file1 = tarfile.open('{}'.format(filename), 'r')
file1.extract('path where to extract')
file1.close()
Error:
Traceback (most recent call last): File "tarfile.py", line 3, in import tarfile File "/path/tarfile.py", line 8, in file1 = tarfile.open('{}'.format(filename), 'r') AttributeError: module 'tarfile' has no attribute 'open'
Solution:
import os
import subprocess
filename = sys.argv[1]
print(filename)
subprocess.check_output("tar -xvf {filename}", shell=True)
d = os.listdir()
print(d)

Maybe you can try something like that
import os
for file_name in os.listdir():
if file_name.endswith(".txz"):
os.system(f"tar -zxvf {file_name}")
