How To Decompress A .xz File Which Has Multiple Folders/files Inside, In A Single Go?

I'm trying to uncompress a .xz file which has a few foders and files inside. I don't see a direct way to do this using lzma module. This is what I'm seeing for a decompress method

Solution 1:

Python 3.3

import tarfile

with tarfile.open('test.tar.xz') as f:
    f.extractall('.')

Python 2.7

Need lzma in Python 2.7

import contextlib
import lzma
import tarfile

with contextlib.closing(lzma.LZMAFile('test.tar.xz')) as xz:
    with tarfile.open(fileobj=xz) as f:
        f.extractall('.')
