We are using MrJob to process WARC files, in similar manner to this example given in the Writing Jobs guide.
For our use case, it is crucial that the
.gzcompressed file is not automatically decompressed before use.This PR proposes a new setting that would allow this to be controlled via a
unpack_archivesoption passed to the MrJob runner. This new option defaults toTrueto maintain the expected default behaviour, while allowing us to set it toFalsewhen needed. We have tested this locally and it seems to work just fine.I've attempted to document this new option, as per the contributing guidelines, but I'm not sure I've covered everything. Is there any other documentation I should add?
