ensure_gunzip(key: str, *subkeys: str, url: str, name: str | None = None, force: bool = False, autoclean: bool = True, download_kwargs: DownloadKwargs | None = None) → Path[source]

Ensure a file is downloaded and gunzipped.

Parameters:

  • key – The name of the module. No funny characters. The envvar <key>_HOME where key is uppercased is checked first before using the default home directory.

  • subkeys – A sequence of additional strings to join. If none are given, returns the directory for this module.

  • url – The URL to download.

  • name – Overrides the name of the file at the end of the URL, if given. Also useful for URLs that don’t have proper filenames with extensions.

  • force – Should the download be done again, even if the path already exists? Defaults to false.

  • autoclean – Should the zipped file be deleted?

  • download_kwargs – Keyword arguments to pass through to pystow.utils.download().

Returns:

The path of the directory where the file that has been downloaded gets extracted to
