ziparchive.addfile
ZIPARCHIVE.ADDFILE(3) 1 ZIPARCHIVE.ADDFILE(3)
ZipArchive::addFile - Adds a file to a ZIP archive from the given path
SYNOPSIS
bool ZipArchive::addFile NULL (string $filename, [string $localname], [int $start], [int $length])
DESCRIPTION
Adds a file to a ZIP archive from a given path.
PARAMETERS
o $filename
- The path to the file to add.
o $localname
- If supplied, this is the local name inside the ZIP archive that will override the $filename.
o $start
- This parameter is not used but is required to extend ZipArchive.
o $length
- This parameter is not used but is required to extend ZipArchive.
RETURN VALUES
Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.
EXAMPLES
This example opens a ZIP file archive test.zip and add the file /path/to/index.txt. as newname.txt.
Example #1
Open and add
<?php
$zip = new ZipArchive;
if ($zip->open('test.zip') === TRUE) {
$zip->addFile('/path/to/index.txt', 'newname.txt');
$zip->close();
echo 'ok';
} else {
echo 'failed';
}
?>
NOTES
Note
When a file is set to be added to the archive, PHP will lock the file. The lock is only released once the ZipArchive object has
been closed, either via ZipArchive::close or the ZipArchive object being destroyed. This may prevent you from being able to delete
the file being added until after the lock has been released.
