Archive::Zip Description

ZIP archival made easy Archive::Zip is a free and open source clean, Ruby-native, Ruby-esque interface to working with ZIP archives.Basic archive creation and extraction can be handled using only a few methods. More complex operations involving the manipulation of already existing archives in place (removing, adding, and modifying entries) are also possible with a little more work.Even adding advanced features such as new compression codecs are supported with a moderate amount of effort. Here are some key features of "Archive Zip":· 100% native Ruby. (Well, almost depends on zlib.)· Archive creation and extraction is supported with only a few lines of code.· Archives can be updated "in place" or dumped out to other files or pipes.· Files, symlinks, and directories are supported within archives.· Unix permission/mode bits are supported.· Unix user and group ownerships are supported.· Unix last accessed and last modified times are supported.· Entry extension (AKA extra field) implementations can be added on the fly.· Unknown entry extension types are preserved during archive processing.· The Deflate and Store compression codecs are supported out of the box.· More compression codecs can be added on the fly.· Traditional (weak) encryption is supported out of the box.NOTE:Archive::Zip is licensed and provided under the terms of the Ruby License.
