[PHP] Zip support

[E. Stuart Hicks]

I see that there is support for bzip2 and gzip in PHP, so I was wondering if
there was any standard zip support that I'm not seeing.

[PHP] Zip Problem

[Mathew Joseph]

Hi There,
I am trying to incorporate zipping and unzipping files on a windows 
platform via PHP. I came across  ZZiplib but wasnt able to find any 
information with regard to windows installation. Is there anyone who has 
tried something similar ?
   If yes, could you give me installation details and if possible a DLL 
which works on the windows platform.
thanks in advance,
Mathew

[PHP] ZIP Files?

[Emiliano Marmonti]

Hi people,
 
    I´m looking for alternatives in 
using zip files. Our users should upload into our server zipped files and we 
need to unzip this files and process it. I have read there is a library that 
could be used like an extension, but I´ve tried to use it from NT and don´t 
seems like the extension was added and when I try to use the commands PHP says 
that don´t recognoice the commands. In the other hand somebody has told me that 
PHP must be recompiled for using this library. Our platform is Windows NT but in 
the future could be Solaris.
 
    Anybody could send me your 
experience?
 
    Thanks in advance.
    
Emiliano

Re: [PHP] Zip file

>Does anyone know how to create a .zip file using php?

H.   Not sure if gzip can handle .zip file per se, or if .gz file is
okay for what you need, but try here:

http://php.net/manual/en/ref.zlib.php


If not, there's probably some software out there somewhere that runs on
Linux that could be exec()ed to create a zip file.

If you are on Windows, I think the exec() stuff may or may not work
depending on a whole host of factors, such as PHP version, which Win version
you're on, ... Or maybe it just never worked...

But, if you could get exec() to work on your box, you could probably find a
command-line interface to a zip archive package somewhere.

I looked and couldn't find any. The best I could find to be able to zip
unzip files was to save them on the server and use exec() to run zip on
the command line to read the files back into php. Not the best way I know,
but it worked.

Yeah, that's what I wanted to avoid, though.  These scripts have to be able
to run on both NT and Unix boxes.  I guess I'll just have to change the
other code to use gzip instead of regular zip.

[PHP] zip/zziplib segfaults

[Charles Galpin]

Hi 

I've searched the archives but cannot find any answers to this problem.

Red Hat 7.2
php-4.1.2-7.2.4 or php-4.1.2-7.3.4
zziplib-0.10.66

I rebuilt php with --with-zip. However a simple cli test program that
does a zip_open then attempts a zip_read, gets a segmentation fault on
the zip_read (or even a zip_close immediately after the open).

Can anyone shed some light on how to get zip support working?

I'm working on getting a backtrace right now.

thanks
charles

IIRC, geoip is lookup based on host name or IP address for country, region, 
city, etc... similar to whois for DNS.  I think the OP wants to look geographic 
information, such as city, county, state/province, etc..., based on a given zip 
code like 92723.

Tommy

[PHP] ZIP it :o)

[Auto-Deppe, C. Haensel]

Morning guys,

I have been trying to find an easy to use way to zip an archive on a linux
box running PHP5. Now I've tried the zip-lib.php and others, but they always
throw an error msg But that is not the question.

I am looking to use exec("zip archive.zip $directory");  $directory has been
tried with both full path and relative path ... but that doesn't work. I
don't get an error, it just doesn't create the zip-file...

So, after a day of Google-ing and trying, I thought I might ask you for
help.

Cheers for any answers and hints.

Regards,

Chris

[PHP] PHP Zip Question

[Matt Street]

Dear all,

I am trying to create a zipping mechanism that allows the user to select a
number of files from a list; these files are then zipped and downloaded to
the user's machine. I presently have:

$zip = new ZipArchive();
$filename = $zipfinalpath."tutor/zipfiles/".$tutorzipfile;

if ($zip->open($filename, ZIPARCHIVE::CREATE)!==TRUE) {
exit("cannot open <$filename> \n");
}
else {
$loopCount = 0;
foreach ($filelisttozip as $i => $fileValue) {  
//the 
$zip->addFile($fileValue,$filenamelisttozip[$loopCount]);
$loopCount ++;
}
}

$zip->close();

In my test sample of files I have the following file types:

.doc
.zip
.jpg
.doc

And the zip mechanism works when I ask for all or omit any of the files from
the list, except when I omit the zip file! E.g.

1. Asking for all works
2. Asking for .zip,.jpg,.doc works
3. Asking for .doc,.zip works
4. Asking for .doc,.jpg,.doc doesn't work - 7-zip tells me that the file is
not support archive and windows tells me the Compressed(folder) is invalid
or corrupted!

I have used different zip files to make sure that it's not the file, but all
to no avail. . .but if I add:

$zip = zip_open($filename);
while ($zip_entry = zip_read($zip)) {
  $file = basename(zip_entry_name($zip_entry));

echo 'a'.$file.'';
}
zip_close($zip);

to the bottom of my page it correctly displays, on screen, the 3 files I
expect to be in the zip file.

Any help would be very gratefully received as this is driving me mad!!!

Matt

You need to recompile php adding 

  --with-zip[=DIR]

If you don't know how to do this then read manual > Installation. Or search 
out some tutorials.

The example in the manual shows how to open a zip archive and read each file 
into memory and display. It should be a straight forward matter to use the 
functions in "Filesystem functions" to write the uncompressed files to disk.

You would have to determine their IP, which, some being dynamically
assigned at log on, would not necessarily indicate the users location.
Then you would have to be able to map the IP to a zip code. The short
answer is no.

Well, you *could* have a form that displays asking for their zip code;
on submission, it sets a cookie with their zip code, and this allows
them to see their personalized movie times on subsequent visits. (You
could even hide the zipcode form if the cookie is set)

RE: [PHP] Zip Codes

One thing I might be tempted to try would be to execute a trace route
utility and analyze the output, but it is very cryptic;

If you can figure out how to make sense of this, you might be able to find
the point that a system is connected to the internet, by tracing back to a
visitors current IP address.

If you come up with something useful, keep the list informed.

Which may get you close but either way would probably be more indicative
of the service providers location then the actual user and even
narrowing it down to a single city does not mean you have only a single
zip code to deal with.

[PHP] ZIP combinaton in PHP?

[Tony Harrison]

I realise its a longshot but is it possible to use PHP (or any other
web-based languages) to combine multiple ZIP files into a single ZIP file?
and any scripts i can download to do it.

Any help with this is most appreciated. ;-)

You could write your own. . .

http://sourceforge.net/projects/zipcodedb has a "Raw ZIP code dump"... It

[== snip, snip ==]

FWIW, here is the formula needed, here just a snippet getting the
distance between two ZIP's, and, yes, Virginia, you have to
have the latitude and longitude in radians:

#== construct the computed distance field (artificial field) ==
$dist   = "(ACOS(SIN($this->LAST_LAT) * ";
$dist   .= "SIN(LatRad) + ";
$dist   .= "COS($this->LAST_LAT) * ";
$dist   .= "COS(LatRad) * ";
$dist   .= "COS(LongRad -$this->LAST_LONG)) *";
$dist   .= "3958.88012572)";

For this snippet, consider LAST_LAT and LAST_LONG the
"first point" in this spherical geometry solution, nicely all
done by MySQL.  But you can do the formula in PHP, if you
wish.

  The last two numbers are latitude and longitude of the registered zip code
center for the given zip code.

[PHP] ZIp files? Help needed...

[Emiliano Marmonti]

Hi people,

I´m looking for alternatives in using zip files. Our users should upload into our 
server zipped files and we need to unzip this files and process it. I have read there 
is a library that could be used like an extension, but I´ve tried to use it from NT 
and don´t seems like the extension was added and when I try to use the commands PHP 
says that don´t recognoice the commands. In the other hand somebody has told me that 
PHP must be recompiled for using this library. Our platform is Windows NT but in the 
future could be Solaris.

Anybody could send me your experience?

[PHP] zip and mac safari

Hi,

does anyone know how to use a php script to zip a folder (with a
subfolder) so that safari can open it and not decompresses forever?

Most likely a permissions problem. Does the PHP user have write access

Not in gmail :)

I had same problem lately, wanted also to create zip files from PHP, i
tried various build in functions, but i ended up with the exec way.
It has been said before, but PHP probably doesn't have the right
permissions to write the .zip file, so i would recommend you to write
to /tmp first.

Re: [PHP] ZIP it :o)

[Auto-Deppe, C. Haensel]

Hi guys,

thanks to Jim, I made it :o) Here's the source I'm using for testing now... 
it works. I just need to make it less vulnerable ;o)


- SNIP -
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; 
filename="Auto-Deppe-'.$now.'_Download.zip"');

exec("zip ".$now."_archive.zip temp/* 2>&1", $output);
readfile($now."_archive.zip");
$tempdir = opendir("temp");
while($tempfile = readdir($tempdir)) {
if(eregi("jpg", $tempfile)) {
 unlink("temp/".$tempfile);
}
}
?>
- SNAP -
So I am copying the files to a temp dir, and then zip em up, delete them 
afterwards. I copy them to the dir so I wouldn't have the whole 
/kfz_images/number/full/ structure in the zip).


Aaaanyhow, it works, it does work fast enough, and I am happy :o)

Thanks a bunch, guys, and have a great day!

I had same problem lately, wanted also to create zip files from PHP, i
tried various build in functions, but i ended up with the exec way.
It has been said before, but PHP probably doesn't have the right
permissions to write the .zip file, so i would recommend you to write
to /tmp first.

So I am copying the files to a temp dir, and then zip em up, delete them

Aaaanyhow, it works, it does work fast enough, and I am happy :o)

Thanks a bunch, guys, and have a great day!

Here's a link to the zip class that I use

http://www.phpclasses.org/browse/package/945.html

One thing though, your PHP install has to be compiled with "--with-zlib"

That was the only thing that I ran into with this.

Since you are creating files to download, with this class, you don't even need to write them to the 
filesystem.  You just create the archive in memory (given that you have enough RAM && php is allowed 
to consume as much memory as it would take the create the archive) and then dump it to the browser 
instead of using readfile().  You save the time/space/headaches of trying to write your zip file to 
the filesystem.

Yes, but what happens when you try to create a 1GB archive with 512MB
RAM? (and no swap space too)
or if 100s of people call the same script that creates a 10-20MB file?
If you use the exec way, this will go fine :)

Nope, you didn't but you noted the difference in speed for both, but
you didn't note any problems that could occur.

HINT:
I'd love to alter the PHP source so that the 2 optional args to exec()
are NOT optional anymore...

It would forestall a lot of 'exec' questions on this list... :-)

Use full paths everywhere, or you'll end up cursing again some other
day.  That includes the full path to the binary program 'zip' and the
file 'archive.zip' and the '$directory'

You also MUST understand that PHP runs as a specific user, which on
Apache is defined in httpd.conf, and is rarely the same user as your
SSH login user.  So what you can do in the command line has little
bearing on what that user can do in 'exec'

Re: [PHP] ZIP it :o)

On a busy server, with many many users, it is remotely possible that
your time() call will not be unique, and 2 users will end up
corrupting each others' zip files...

PHP has built-in functions for making temp files with unique names.

Use them.

Re: [PHP] PHP Zip Question

[Richard Lynch]

Post a link to your on-line application.

Also, use LiveHTTPHeaders and such to make sure you are getting what
you think you are getting.

And use vi or TextPad or whatever on your desktop to open up the .zip
file and see what's in there.

If it starts with:
ERROR: PHP error blah blah blah
then you've got a pretty good idea why it's not a valid zip file :-)

RE: [PHP] PHP Zip Question

[Matt Street]

Thanks for the response, I decided that it was easier to unpack the zip 
during the upload process and then delete the zip. I can then indicate 
which files I want to zip up and this works (opening the zip on the 
server), but, and it's a big but, when the zip is downloaded to the 
users machine it is being corrupted! 

To force the download I use: 

header('Content-type: application/zip'); 
header('Content-Disposition:  attachment; filename='.$tutorzipfile); 
readfile($filename); 

Which correctly gives me: 

Content-Type: application/zip 
Content-disposition: attachment; filename=tutorzipfile.zip 

when viewing the LiveHTTPHeaders extension in firefox. 

However, when I view the zip file that is downloaded to my machine, in 
Textpad, php has appended the directory information of the files I'm 
zipping up onto the front of the zip file, so it no longer starts PK!!! 

Anyone any ideas??? 

Thanks in advance 

Matt

PHP didn't do it.

Your zip routines may have done it.

Your code may have done it.

But PHP is not, no its own, just outputting the directory info for no
real reason.

Put an exit right before you readfile() and the headers.

You may need to move the headers down below all the code that
calculates what's getting zipped up and all that...

Dollars to donuts says you've left behind a debugging:
echo pwd();
or something similar.

RE: [PHP] PHP Zip Question

Richard,

Thank you for your post and the link to your rant. Indeed I am a PHP newbie
and have fallen into the advice I have been given through google. . .

I have added an exit and probably owe you a donut as I had to remove a
couple of echo's from my code! However, the good news after all of this is
that my code is now working and I can finish off my tests.

Thanks again

Matt

[PHP] Zip Way of life.

[Vincent M.]

Hello,

I'd like to uncompress to the Hard disk a zip file send by the browser.

At this time I do this:

function uncompresszip($zipfile) {
  copy($zipfile, dirname($_SERVER['PATH_TRANSLATED'])."/zip/zipfile.zip") ;
}
But I do not understand how to uncompress the zip file, I tried for exemple:
$retour = 
readgzfile(dirname($_SERVER['PATH_TRANSLATED'])."/zip/zipfile.zip");

But as mentionned in the php doc it outputs the content of the zip file 
in the browser :-(

How to uncompress a zip file in a directory ? I just want all the files 
which are in the zip file...

Thanks,
Vincent.

re: [PHP] Zip to postcode

sorry, don't have anything to add for code, but just a note to remember that UK post

QQ11 1QQ
Q1 1QQ
Q11 1QQ
QQ1 1QQ

so it's a real pain to write an expression for this...

Can someone please tell me how i change the following code:
if (!ereg("^[0-9]{5,5}(\-[0-9]{4,4})?$",$postcode))

to a UK postcode QQ1 1QQ
When i fill out the form it tells me that the postcode is not valid and i

If you have a command-line zip program on your system then just use exec() (or

Hi people,

I´m looking for alternatives in using zip files. Our users should upload
into our server zipped files and we need to unzip this files and process it.
I have read there is a library that could be used like an extension, but
I´ve tried to use it from NT and don´t seems like the extension was added
and when I try to use the commands PHP says that don´t recognoice the
commands. In the other hand somebody has told me that PHP must be recompiled
for using this library. Our platform is Windows NT but in the future could
be Solaris.

Anybody could send me your experience?

[PHP] [RE-PHRASE] PHP ZIP Class

[Jay Blanchard]

I am in need of a PHP class or script or something that will allow me to
designate a group of files to be zipped up, including PDF files,
automagically. It must be compatible with WinZip as that is what the
user will have access to. I have tried several things, a couple of
classes, and some other tricks to no avail. There seems to be an issue
with PDF's that I cannot figure out. The files are usually 1 byte too
short when you try to open them after unzipping them, and are therefore
corrupt.

If anyone is aware of something would you please let me know? I am even
willing at this point to add a couple of layers of abstraction to make
this work as long as the process is relatively invisible to the end
user. My desire is that it works like this;

User clicks link
[start automagic stuff]
*whirring* //determine which files should go into archive
*clicking* //put files in archive
[/end automagic stuff]
User presented with dialog box to save archive

Any and all clues are appreciated.

You mentioned wanting the "files" (note the plural) in the zip file.
AFAIK gunzip can unzip an archive containing a single file, but if you
have more than one in there then you need to use an actual unzip tool
(like, say, unzip :-)

While a class or a built-in command might be nice, if you just want to
get them out then a simple system call might be the easiest way to go.

So either install it on the servers that need it, or distribute the un/zip
exe with your package in your projects local directory -- this also saves
you having to deal with different versions on different servers that may not
always do what you expect. At least this way it's a controlled environment.

Yes but gunzip does not work when there are more than one file in the

There are some ready made scripts for dealing with UK post codes on the relevant page 
on the PHP site:

Subject: [PHP] Zip to postcode[Scanned]


Can someone please tell me how i change the following code:
if (!ereg("^[0-9]{5,5}(\-[0-9]{4,4})?$",$postcode))

to a UK postcode QQ1 1QQ
When i fill out the form it tells me that the postcode is not valid and i
think it is because it is in zip code format.

Thank you

Andy

And not one of them is 100% correct!!  This would be my stab:

preg_match('/^([A-Z]{1,2}([0-9]{1,2})|[0-9][A-Z])|GIR)'
   . ' ?[0-9][A-Z]{2}$/i', $postcode)

(I've divided the pattern in two here simply to avoid strange line wrapping!)

One of the user notes referred to says that postcodes are sometimes written with a 
space after the initial letters; although technically this is incorrect, adjusting to 
allow it would give:

preg_match('/^([A-Z]{1,2} ?([0-9]{1,2})|[0-9][A-Z])|GIR)'
   . ' ?[0-9][A-Z]{2}$/i', $postcode)

Another states that the set of letters in the last two positions is restricted -- I 
can't vouch for the accuracy of this, but if it's the case the match would become:

preg_match('/^([A-Z]{1,2} ?([0-9]{1,2})|[0-9][A-Z])|GIR)'
   . ' ?[0-9]}[ABD-HJLNP-UW-Z]{2}$/i', $postcode)

Finally, if you really, really want to accept only completely valid postcodes (not 
just validly formatted ones), you should get the full list of postcode area 
identifiers (the initial letter or two) and validate against those -- plus any local 
peculiarities that occur (for example, in my local postcode area, the final digit is 2 
in *all* cases).  (Well, I guess here we're getting into the realms of paying for the 
Royal Mail's postcode database!!)

Cheers!

Mike

[PHP] zip code validation/regular expression

[Jason Paschal]

Simply trying to use regular expressions to validate a 5 or 5+4 zip code, 
excluding 0 and 0-.  Looked on http://www.regexlib.com, and 
that's where I found the pattern below, but it doesn't work.  The best I can 
do on my own is two separate regular expressions, one to match a valid zip, 
and another to match the 0 invalid code.  I would really like to 
condense it into one, just because I think it should be possible.
This code below is suppose to do all this for me, but it's not matching as 
I'd hoped.  I get results like this:

21832-1234 MATCHES.
0- MATCHES.
0 MATCHES.
1234 doesn't match.
ABCDEF doesn't match.
ABC doesn't match.
I'd appreciate any help.  Thanks,
jason


$regex1 = "/^(\?(^0(|-))|(\d{5}(|-\d{4})))$/";

$zips = 
array("21243","21832-1234","0-","0","1234","ABCDEF","ABC");

foreach ($zips as $zip) {
if (preg_match($regex1,$zip)) {
echo "$zip MATCHES.";
} else {
echo "$zip doesn't match.";
}
}
?>

[PHP] Zip Code Locator / Radius Search

[Becoming Digital]

I need a "search by zip code," aka radius search feature for a current project.  I 
know I've seen info on how this works but I can't seem to find it.  I guess my own 
search abilities are malfunctioning.  Would someone be so kind as to point me to a 
link?  Thanks a lot.

Re: [PHP] zip codes and lat/longs

[mike]

Here's code I had, but it recently stopped working

It takes the zip code for the user and the user you're viewing, looks
them up from the data table (z_data_zips) and does the calculation.
The formula is in a handful of places - I converted mine from a MySQL
example (I think, or vice versa)

You can get the zip code lat/long info from the Census Bureau

I believe this is where you get the file:
http://www.census.gov/geo/www/gazetteer/places2k.html

You want the "ZCTAs (ZIP Code Tabulation Areas): (33,233 records)"
file - the schema is at the bottom of the page.

Perhaps someone else might also find the error in my code below that's
changed and save me the time to figure out why it no longer works :)
(for all I know it could be a problem with MySQL result set too)

if($visitor['uid'] > 0) {
$uchk = db_query("SELECT up.country,uz.zip FROM user_profile
up LEFT JOIN user_zip uz ON uz.uid=up.uid WHERE up.uid=$visitor
[uid]");
if(db_numrows($uchk) == 1) {
list($vc,$vz) = db_rows($uchk);
$vz = intval($vz);
$user_zip = intval($user_zip);

$zchk1 = db_query("SELECT latitude,longitude
FROM z_data_zips WHERE zip=$user_zip");
list($ulat,$ulong) = db_rows($zchk1);
db_free($zchk1);
$zchk2 = db_query("SELECT latitude,longitude
FROM z_data_zips WHERE zip=$vz");
list($vlat,$vlong) = db_rows($zchk2);
db_free($zchk2);
$distance =
number_format(ceil(69*rad2deg(acos(sin(deg2rad($ulat)) *
sin(deg2rad($vlat)) + cos(deg2rad($ulat
)) * cos(deg2rad($vlat)) * cos(deg2rad($ulong - $vlong));
echo "Distance from
you: $distance miles.\n";

}
db_free($uchk);
}

Tedd,

I have all of this in a MySQL database already, with census
information, water table info, and more.  If you want to take a look,
let me know and I'll give you a peek via phpMyAdmin to see if it'll
match your needs.

For you, it's free.  All else must PAY  ;-P

You sell it, you can have 50% of whatever revenue it generates,
without having to do a bit of code.

It took me over a year to compile all of the information.  I know
I probably could've found it somewhere else for a few hundred dollars,
but I wanted to do it as a project for myself so I did.  ;-P
