.tgz files won't show up


i need to download the .tgz file, any help???

You could try messing around with .gitignore

???, whattt do you meannn

Create a file called .gitignore and add this
!(folder)/(folder)/example.tgz

But no promises I’m not sure if this will work.

what do i put in (folder)

right now i have

/node_modules
/bwd

Try
!node_modules
!bwd

ok… then what do i do

I would say run refresh and see if those folders appear. I don’t know if it will work but its worth a shot.

nopee, didt work, rip

ah sorry… The only other thing I can thing of is that Glitch doesn’t support compacted files but idk.

why thought, why not?

You sometimes need software to open up compressed files.

like??? what software

https://fileinfo.com/extension/tgz
but on this page it says somthing about the command line.

alright, tysm, ill check it out

hey, but im not on windowns :expressionless:

Try on the glitch console.

what do you mean by try it on the glitch console

Just open the glitch terminal and run the command. I could show you how to open it if you want.

ik how to open, but how do you use it, you can send me the terminal code, and my file name is in the screenshot above this

wait i gota eat dinner, chat later!!!

Step one - Get to the directory

cd addons/my-first-addon

Step Two: Upack the files

tar -xzvf my-first-addon-1.0.0.tgz

Step three: Run refresh for good measure.

i dont see no file :confused:

Sorry, then I guess I don’t know :frowning:

Hi @TH3_UNKNOWN, glitch will not show compacted folders in the editor.

If you want to see it in the console, run the command ls -a in the folder where you believe it is located.

In case you uploaded a folder or a file from the Console
you need to run refresh or enable-pnpm so you refresh all the files and folders in your project

No… Tgz files will usually be found in assets…
