So what you basically want is to unrar files from a dir

Open the dir, you can use any method including opendir

Check if the filename's extension ends with .rar

If it ends then unrar the file :s

yes... but how to use this method automatically...

if you don't know how to get the first part's filename: sort them alphabetically, that will most likely give you the filename.rar or filename.part01.rar.
and unrar that one.
