This library was written to simplify and automate Zip files management using [PHP ZipArchive](http://php.net/manual/en/class.ziparchive.php). ### Installation [](#installation) Require this package in your composer.json and update composer. This will download the package. ``` composer require webikevn/laravel-zip ``` After updating composer, add the ServiceProvider to the providers array in config/app.php ``` Webike\Zip\ZipServiceProvider::class, ``` You can optionally use the facade for shorter code. Add this to your facades: ``` 'Zip' => Webike\Zip\ZipFacade::class, ``` Zip usage --------- [](#zip-usage) use `Webike\Zip\Zip` class only use `Zip` is made to handle a zip file. - include the Zip class at top: ``` use Zip; ``` ### Basic operations [](#basic-operations) - Open zip file: ``` $zip = Zip::open('file.zip'); ``` - Create zip file: ``` $zip = Zip::create('file.zip'); ``` - Check zip file: ``` $is_valid = Zip::check('file.zip'); ``` - Extract zip file: ``` // extract whole archive $zip->extract('/path/to/uncompressed/files'); // extract a file $zip->extract('/path/to/uncompressed/files', 'file'); // extract multiple files $zip->extract('/path/to/uncompressed/files', array('file1','file2')); ``` - Check if zip has a file: ``` // Check if archive has a file $zip->has('/path/to/file/in/archive'); // Check if archive has a file case insensitively $zip->has('/path/to/file/in/archive', ZipArchive::FL_NOCASE); // Check if archive has a file ignoring directory component $zip->has('file', ZipArchive::FL_NODIR); // Check if archive has a file case insensitively ignoring directory component $zip->has('file', ZipArchive::FL_NOCASE|ZipArchive::FL_NODIR); ``` - Add a file/directory to zip: ``` $zip->add('/path/to/my/file'); // declaring path $zip->setPath('/path/to/my')->add('file'); // add directory $zip->add('/path/to/my/directory'); // add directory (only its content) $zip->add('/path/to/my/directory', true); ``` - Add multiple files/directories to zip: ``` // using array as parameter $zip->add( array('/path/to/my/file1', '/path/to/my/file2'); // chaining methods $zip->add('/path/to/my/file1')->add('/path/to/my/file2'); // declaring path $zip->setPath('/path/to/my')->add('file1')->add('file2'); ``` - Delete a file/directory from zip: ``` $zip->delete('file'); ``` - Delete multiple files/directories from zip: ``` // using array as parameter $zip->delete( array('file1', 'file2') ); // chaining methods $zip->delete('file1')->delete('file2'); ``` - List content of zip file ``` $zip->listFiles(); ``` - Close zip file ``` $zip->close(); ``` ### Additional methods [](#additional-methods) - Skip hidden files while adding directories: ``` // set mode $zip->setSkipped('HIDDEN'); // get mode $mode = $zip->getSkipped(); ``` - Use password for zip extraction: ``` // set password $zip->setPassword('slartibartfast'); // get password $password = $zip->getPassword(); ``` - Use a mask != 0777 for created folders: ``` // set mask $zip->setMask(0644); // get mask $mask = $zip->getMask(); ``` ZipManager usage ---------------- [](#zipmanager-usage) The `\ZanySoft\Zip\ZipManager` can handle multiple `ZanySoft\Zip\Zip` objects. - include the Zip and ZipManager class at top: ``` use ZanySoft\Zip\ZipManager; use Zip; ``` ### Basic operations [](#basic-operations-1) - Init the manager and register Zips: ``` // init manager $manager = new ZipManager(); // register existing zips $manager->addZip( Zip::open('/path/to/my/file1.zip') ) ->addZip( Zip::open('/path/to/my/file2.zip') ); // register a new zip $manager->addZip( Zip::create('/path/to/my/file3.zip') ); ``` - Basic zips management: ``` // get a list of registered zips $list = $manager->listZips(); // remove a zip $manager->removeZip($ZipObject); // get a Zip $zip = $manager->getZip(0); ``` - Add files to all zips: ``` $manager-> = new ZipManager(); // register existing zips $manager->addZip( Zip::open('/path/to/my/file1.zip') ) ->addZip( Zip::open('/path/to/my/file2.zip') ); // register a new zip $manager->addZip( Zip::create('/path/to/my/file3.zip') ); ``` - Extract zips: ``` // separate content in folders $extract = $manager->extract('/path/to/uncompressed/files', true); // use a single folder $extract = $manager->extract('/path/to/uncompressed/files', false); // extract single file $extract = $manager->extract('/path/to/uncompressed/files', false, 'file'); // extract multiple files $extract = $manager->extract('/path/to/uncompressed/files', false, array('file1','file2')); ``` - Merge zips: ``` // separate content in folders $manager->merge('/path/to/output/file.zip', true); // flatten files $manager->merge('/path/to/output/file.zip', false); ``` - Close zips: ``` $manager->close(); ``` ### Additional methods [](#additional-methods-1) - Declare path from which add files: ``` // set path $zip->setPath('/path/to/files'); // get path $path = $zip->getPath(); ``` - Use a mask != 0777 for created folders ``` // set masks $manager->setMask(0644); // get masks $mask = $manager->getMask(); ``` ### Health Score 24 — LowBetter than 32% of packages Maintenance20 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity10 Limited adoption so far Community7 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity51 Maturing project, gaining track record Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 100% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
