note 105989 added to ref.zip

This is the simplest method to unzip a file. Pass the function your filename and it will unzip it to the current directory of the script with permissions done properly on unix type operating systems. Far simpler to understand and read. function unzip($file){ $zip = zip_open($file); if(is_resource($zip)){ $tree = ""; while(($zip_entry = zip_read($zip)) !== false){ echo "Unpacking ".zip_entry_name($zip_entry)."\n"; if(strpos(zip_entry_name($zip_entry), DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR) !== false){ $last = strrpos(zip_entry_name($zip_entry), DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR); $dir = substr(zip_entry_name($zip_entry), 0, $last); $file = substr(zip_entry_name($zip_entry), strrpos(zip_entry_name($zip_entry), DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR)+1); if(!is_dir($dir)){ @mkdir($dir, 0755, true) or die("Unable to create $dir\n"); } if(strlen(trim($file)) > 0){ $return = @file_put_contents($dir."/".$file, zip_entry_read($zip_entry, zip_entry_filesize($zip_entry))); if($return === false){ die("Unable to write file $dir/$file\n"); } } }else{ file_put_contents($file, zip_entry_read($zip_entry, zip_entry_filesize($zip_entry))); } } }else{ echo "Unable to open zip file\n"; } } ---- Server IP: 208.69.120.55 Probable Submitter: 199.222.128.250 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.zip.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/105989 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105989/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105989/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105989/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105989/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105989/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105989/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105989 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/105989 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
