Create a Zip archive
Guide
Edit on GitHub ✎
This example uses the old API (PHP 4), it opens a ZIP file archive, reads each file in the archive and prints out its contents. The test2.zip archive used in this example is one of the test archives in the ZZIPlib source distribution.
Examples
Create a Zip archive
php
<?php
$zip = new ZipArchive();
$filename = "./test112.zip";
if ($zip->open($filename, ZipArchive::CREATE)!==TRUE) {
exit("cannot open <$filename>\n");
}
$zip->addFromString("testfilephp.txt" . time(), "#1 This is a test string added as testfilephp.txt.\n");
$zip->addFromString("testfilephp2.txt" . time(), "#2 This is a test string added as testfilephp2.txt.\n");
$zip->addFile($thisdir . "/too.php","/testfromfile.php");
echo "numfiles: " . $zip->numFiles . "\n";
echo "status:" . $zip->status . "\n";
$zip->close();
?>Dump the archive details and listing
php
<?php
$za = new ZipArchive();
$za->open('test_with_comment.zip');
print_r($za);
var_dump($za);
echo "numFiles: " . $za->numFiles . "\n";
echo "status: " . $za->status . "\n";
echo "statusSys: " . $za->statusSys . "\n";
echo "filename: " . $za->filename . "\n";
echo "comment: " . $za->comment . "\n";
for ($i=0; $i<$za->numFiles;$i++) {
echo "index: $i\n";
print_r($za->statIndex($i));
}
echo "numFile:" . $za->numFiles . "\n";
?>Zip stream wrapper, read an OpenOffice meta info
php
<?php
$reader = new XMLReader();
$reader->open('zip://' . dirname(__FILE__) . '/test.odt#meta.xml');
$odt_meta = array();
while ($reader->read()) {
if ($reader->nodeType == XMLREADER::ELEMENT) {
$elm = $reader->name;
} else {
if ($reader->nodeType == XMLREADER::END_ELEMENT && $reader->name == 'office:meta') {
break;
}
if (!trim($reader->value)) {
continue;
}
$odt_meta[$elm] = $reader->value;
}
}
print_r($odt_meta);

Zip Usage Example
php
<?php
$zip = zip_open("/tmp/test2.zip");
if ($zip) {
while ($zip_entry = zip_read($zip)) {
echo "Name: " . zip_entry_name($zip_entry) . "\n";
echo "Actual Filesize: " . zip_entry_filesize($zip_entry) . "\n";
echo "Compressed Size: " . zip_entry_compressedsize($zip_entry) . "\n";
echo "Compression Method: " . zip_entry_compressionmethod($zip_entry) . "\n";
if (zip_entry_open($zip, $zip_entry, "r")) {
echo "File Contents:\n";
$buf = zip_entry_read($zip_entry, zip_entry_filesize($zip_entry));
echo "$buf\n";
zip_entry_close($zip_entry);
}
echo "\n";
}
zip_close($zip);
}
?>
