Suggestions for unpacking "Zip" type file in Netburner?

Post by sblair »

I've got an application where I'm going to be using the EFFS SD card on a MOD5441x platform. I'm interfacing with some other boards inside our system that are going to require a number of firmware/config files.

I want to create a single upload package that can be uploaded into the Netburner by the user with all these files inside so I can guarantee all the right files go together. i.e. like a .zip file, but I don't necessarily care if it has compression or not. I just want a single container file format that has all the other files inside so the user only ever handles a single file for updating our system.

I figure someone else has done this before, so just want to see if there any recommendations for what library or open-source project to use. Would prefer having a command line and/or Windows tool for creating the file package too so I can automate that process.

Thanks!
