Why does my zip code not work as expected? - php

Question

See this question. I can't use that code:
function addFolderToZip($dir, $zipArchive, $zipdir = ''){
if (is_dir($dir)) {
if ($dh = opendir($dir)) {
//Add the directory
$zipArchive->addEmptyDir($dir);
// Loop through all the files
while (($file = readdir($dh)) !== false) {
//If it's a folder, run the function again!
if(!is_file($dir . $file)){
// Skip parent and root directories
if( ($file !== ".") && ($file !== "..")){
addFolderToZip($dir . $file . "/", $zipArchive, $zipdir . $file . "/");
}
}else{
// Add the files
$zipArchive->addFile($dir . $file, $zipdir . $file);
}
}
}
Please write an example for me. The second problem is too complex.
When I use addfile function it will add and appear in the archive as a file and this great. Now when I use:
$z = new ZipArchive();
$z->open('test.zip')
for ($i=0; $i< $z->numFiles;$i++) {
$aZipDtls = $z->statIndex($i);
echo $aZipDtls['name'];
}
it now shows if I add a file in folder like that:
$zip->addFile('/path/to/index.txt', 'dir/newname.txt');
it show in the Winrar soft a dir then a file but in the code it shows it as one file.
Like that in winrar:
dir/
dir/newname.txt
In my PHP system, just only show one file without its dir, like that:
dir/newname.txt
This mean it's impossible to add a new file in a dir.

Difficult to know what you want, but here goes:
<?php
$zip = new ZipArchive();
$zip->open('test.zip');
$zip->addFile('/path/to/newname.txt','dir/newname1.txt');
$zip->addFile('/path/to/newname.txt','dir/newname2.txt');
$zip->addFile('/path/to/newname.txt','dir/dir/newname3.txt');
$zip->addFile('/path/to/newname.txt','dir/dir/dir/newname4.txt');
for ($i=0; $i< $zip->numFiles;++$i) {
$aZipDtls = $zip->statIndex($i);
echo $aZipDtls['name'],"\n";
}
$zip->close();
?>
Should cover all questions. That will unzip with exactly the structure you'd expect it to. The discrepancy is likely due to the way WinRar displays the archive structure.
