Some versions oftarhave a-C directoryoption that changes the directory. You can use this and thedirnamecommand to produceextract(){ local t=$1; shift ; tar -zxvf "$t" -C "$(dirname "$t")" "$@" ; }but I wouldn't bother unless I was doing it a lot

Some versions oftarhave a-C directoryoption that changes the directory. You can use this and thedirnamecommand to produceextract(){ local t=$1; shift ; tar -zxvf "$t" -C "$(dirname "$t")" "$@" ; }but I wouldn't bother unless I was doing it a lot

You'd have to change to that directory or specify it with -C . Tar extracts to the current directory by default.
cd example.com/extensions ; tar -zxvf ./MobileFrontend-REL1_32-9b48b3c.tar.gz
or
tar -zxv -C example.com/extensions -f example.com/extensions/MobileFrontend-REL1_32-9b48b3c.tar.gz
