               when
                   Fun :: fun((FileInArchive, GetInfo, GetBin, AccIn) -> AccOut),
                   FileInArchive :: file:name(),

                   Archive :: file:name() | {file:name(), binary()},
                   Reason :: term().

Calls Fun(FileInArchive, GetInfo , GetBin, AccIn) on successive files in the Archive, starting with AccIn == Acc0.

FileInArchive is the name that the file has in the archive.

GetInfo is a fun that returns information about the file.

GetBin returns the file contents.

Both GetInfo and GetBin must be called within the Fun. Their behavior is undefined if they are called outside the context of Fun.

The Fun must return a new accumulator, which is passed to the next call. foldl/3 returns the final accumulator value. Acc0 is returned if the archive is empty. It is not necessary to iterate over all files in the archive. The iteration can be ended prematurely in a controlled manner by throwing an exception.

Example:

> Name = "dummy.zip".
"dummy.zip"
> {ok, {Name, Bin}} = zip:create(Name, [{"foo", <<"FOO">>}, {"bar", <<"BAR">>}], [memory]).
{ok,{"dummy.zip",
     <<80,75,3,4,20,0,0,0,0,0,74,152,97,60,171,39,212,26,3,0,
       0,0,3,0,0,...>>}}
> {ok, FileSpec} = zip:foldl(fun(N, I, B, Acc) -> [{N, B(), I()} | Acc] end, [], {Name, Bin}).
{ok,[{"bar",<<"BAR">>,
      {file_info,3,regular,read_write,

Retrieves all filenames in the zip archive Archive.

The result value is the tuple {ok, List}, where List contains the zip archive comment as the first element.

One option is available:

• cooked - By default, this function opens the zip file in raw mode, which is faster but does not allow a remote (Erlang) file server to be used. Adding cooked to the mode list overrides the default and opens the zip file without option raw.

-spec t(Archive) -> ok when Archive :: file:name() | binary() | ZipHandle, ZipHandle :: handle().

Prints all filenames in the zip archive Archive to the Erlang shell. (Similar to tar t.)

-spec tt(Archive) -> ok when Archive :: file:name() | binary() | ZipHandle, ZipHandle :: handle().

Prints filenames and information about all files in the zip archive Archive to the Erlang shell. (Similar to tar tv.)

Extracts all files from a zip archive.

If argument Archive is specified as a binary/0, the contents of the binary is assumed to be a zip archive, otherwise a filename.

Options:

• {file_list, FileList} - By default, all files are extracted from the zip archive. With option {file_list, FileList}, function unzip/2 only extracts the files whose names are included in FileList. The full paths, including the names of all subdirectories within the zip archive, must be specified.

• cooked - By default, this function opens the zip file in raw mode, which is faster but does not allow a remote (Erlang) file server to be used. Adding cooked to the mode list overrides the default and opens the zip file without option raw. The same applies for the files extracted.

• keep_old_files - By default, all files with the same name as files in the zip archive are overwritten. With option keep_old_files set, function unzip/2 does not overwrite existing files. Notice that even with option memory specified, which means that no files are overwritten, existing files are excluded from the result.

• verbose - Prints an informational message for each extracted file.

• memory - Instead of extracting to the current directory, the result is given as a list of tuples {Filename, Binary}, where Binary is a binary containing the extracted data of file Filename in the zip archive.

• {cwd, CWD} - Uses the specified directory as current directory. It is prepended to filenames when extracting them from the zip archive. (Acting like file:set_cwd/1 in Kernel, but without changing the global cwd property.)

                     {ok, {FileName :: file:name(), binary()}} |
                     {error, Reason :: term()}.

Creates a zip archive containing the files specified in FileList.

FileList is a list of files, with paths relative to the current directory, which are stored with this path in the archive. File system operations are performed to read the file metadata and, when compression is enabled, to stream the file contents without loading whole files into memory. Files can also be specified as binaries to create an archive directly from data. In such cases, no metadata or file system reads are performed.

Files are compressed using the DEFLATE compression, as described in the "Appnote.txt" file. However, files are stored without compression if they are already compressed. zip/2 and zip/3 check the file extension to determine if the file is to be stored without compression. Files with the following extensions are not compressed: .Z, .zip, .zoo, .arc, .lzh, .arj.

It is possible to override the default behavior and control what types of files that are to be compressed by using options {compress, What} and {uncompress, What}. It is also possible to use many compress and uncompress options.

To trigger file compression, its extension must match with the compress condition and must not match the uncompress condition. For example, if compress is set to ["gif", "jpg"] and uncompress is set to ["jpg"], only files with extension "gif" are compressed.

Options:

• cooked - By default, this function opens the zip file in mode raw, which is faster but does not allow a remote (Erlang) file server to be used. Adding cooked to the mode list overrides the default and opens the zip file without the raw option. The same applies for the files added.

• verbose - Prints an informational message about each added file.

• memory - The output is not to a file, but instead as a tuple {FileName, binary()}. The binary is a full zip archive with header and can be extracted with, for example, unzip/2.

• {comment, Comment} - Adds a comment to the zip archive.

• {cwd, CWD} - Uses the specified directory as current work directory (cwd). This is prepended to filenames when adding them, although not in the zip archive (acting like file:set_cwd/1 in Kernel, but without changing the global cwd property.).

• {compress, What} - Controls what types of files to be compressed. Defaults to all. The following values of What are allowed:

  • all - All files are compressed (as long as they pass the uncompress condition).

  • [Extension] - Only files with exactly these extensions are compressed.

  • {add,[Extension]} - Adds these extensions to the list of compress extensions.

  • {del,[Extension]} - Deletes these extensions from the list of compress extensions.

• {uncompress, What} - Controls what types of files to be uncompressed. Defaults to [".Z", ".zip", ".zoo", ".arc", ".lzh", ".arj"]. The following values of What are allowed:

  • all - No files are compressed.

  • [Extension] - Files with these extensions are uncompressed.

  • {add,[Extension]} - Adds these extensions to the list of uncompress extensions.

  • {del,[Extension]} - Deletes these extensions from the list of uncompress extensions.

-spec zip_close(ZipHandle) -> ok | {error, einval} when ZipHandle :: handle().

Closes a zip archive, previously opened with zip_open/1,2. All resources are closed, and the handle is not to be used after closing.

                     Reason :: term().

Equivalent to zip_get/2.

-spec zip_get(FileName, ZipHandle) -> {ok, Result} | {error, Reason}
                 when
                     FileName :: file:name(),

                     Result :: file:name() | {file:name(), binary()},
                     Reason :: term().

Extracts one or all files from an open archive.

The files are unzipped to memory or to file, depending on the options specified to function zip_open/1,2 when opening the archive.

-spec zip_get_crc32(FileName, ZipHandle) -> {ok, CRC} | {error, Reason}
                       when
                           FileName :: file:name(),

                           Reason :: term().

Extracts one crc32 checksum from an open archive.

-spec zip_list_dir(ZipHandle) -> {ok, Result} | {error, Reason}
                      when
                          Result :: [zip_comment() | zip_file()],

                          Reason :: term().

Returns the file list of an open zip archive. The first returned element is the zip archive comment.

-spec zip_open(Archive) -> {ok, ZipHandle} | {error, Reason}
                  when Archive :: file:name() | binary(), ZipHandle :: handle(), Reason :: term().

Equivalent to zip_open/2.

-spec zip_open(Archive, Options) -> {ok, ZipHandle} | {error, Reason}
                  when
                      Archive :: file:name() | binary(),

                      Option :: cooked | memory | {cwd, CWD :: file:filename()},
                      Reason :: term().

Opens a zip archive, and reads and saves its directory. This means that later reading files from the archive is faster than unzipping files one at a time with unzip/1,2.

The archive must be closed with zip_close/1.

The ZipHandle is closed if the process that originally opened the archive dies.
