A portable (OSX/Linux/Windows), simple zip library written in C

This is done by hacking awesome miniz library and layering functions on top of the miniz v1.15 API.

The Idea

... Some day, I was looking for zip library written in C for my project, but I could not find anything simple enough and lightweight. Everything what I tried required 'crazy mental gymnastics' to integrate or had some limitations or was too heavy. I hate frameworks, factories and adding new dependencies. If I must to install all those dependencies and link new library, I'm getting almost sick. I wanted something powerfull and small enough, so I could add just a few files and compile them into my project. And finally I found miniz. Miniz is a lossless, high performance data compression library in a single source file. I only needed simple interface to append buffers or files to the current zip-entry. Thanks to this feature I'm able to merge many files/buffers and compress them on-the-fly.

It was the reason, why I decided to write zip module on top of the miniz. It required a little bit hacking and wrapping some functions, but I kept simplicity. So, you can grab these 3 files and compile them into your project. I hope that interface is also extremely simple, so you will not have any problems to understand it.

Examples

• Create a new zip archive with default compression level.

struct zip_t *zip = zip_open("foo.zip", ZIP_DEFAULT_COMPRESSION_LEVEL, 'w');
{
    zip_entry_open(zip, "foo-1.txt");
    {
        const char *buf = "Some data here...\0";
        zip_entry_write(zip, buf, strlen(buf));
    }
    zip_entry_close(zip);

    zip_entry_open(zip, "foo-2.txt");
    {
        // merge 3 files into one entry and compress them on-the-fly.
        zip_entry_fwrite(zip, "foo-2.1.txt");
        zip_entry_fwrite(zip, "foo-2.2.txt");
        zip_entry_fwrite(zip, "foo-2.3.txt");
    }
    zip_entry_close(zip);
}
zip_close(zip);

• Append to the existing zip archive.

struct zip_t *zip = zip_open("foo.zip", ZIP_DEFAULT_COMPRESSION_LEVEL, 'a');
{
    zip_entry_open(zip, "foo-3.txt");
    {
        const char *buf = "Append some data here...\0";
        zip_entry_write(zip, buf, strlen(buf));
    }
    zip_entry_close(zip);
}
zip_close(zip);

• Extract a zip archive into a folder.

int on_extract_entry(const char *filename, void *arg) {
    static int i = 0;
    int n = *(int *)arg;
    printf("Extracted: %s (%d of %d)\n", filename, ++i, n);

    return 0;
}

int arg = 2;
zip_extract("foo.zip", "/tmp", on_extract_entry, &arg);

• Extract a zip entry into memory.

void *buf = NULL;
size_t bufsize;

struct zip_t *zip = zip_open("foo.zip", 0, 'r');
{
    zip_entry_open(zip, "foo-1.txt");
    {
        zip_entry_read(zip, &buf, &bufsize);
    }
    zip_entry_close(zip);
}
zip_close(zip);

free(buf);

• Extract a zip entry into memory (no internal allocation).

unsigned char *buf;
size_t bufsize;

struct zip_t *zip = zip_open("foo.zip", 0, 'r');
{
    zip_entry_open(zip, "foo-1.txt");
    {
        bufsize = zip_entry_size(zip);
        buf = calloc(sizeof(unsigned char), bufsize);

        zip_entry_noallocread(zip, (void *)buf, bufsize);
    }
    zip_entry_close(zip);
}
zip_close(zip);

free(buf);

• Extract a zip entry into memory using callback.

struct buffer_t {
    char *data;
    size_t size;
};

static size_t on_extract(void *arg, unsigned long long offset, const void *data, size_t size) {
    struct buffer_t *buf = (struct buffer_t *)arg;
    buf->data = realloc(buf->data, buf->size + size + 1);
    assert(NULL != buf->data);

    memcpy(&(buf->data[buf->size]), data, size);
    buf->size += size;
    buf->data[buf->size] = 0;

    return size;
}

struct buffer_t buf = {0};
struct zip_t *zip = zip_open("foo.zip", 0, 'r');
{
    zip_entry_open(zip, "foo-1.txt");
    {
        zip_entry_extract(zip, on_extract, &buf);
    }
    zip_entry_close(zip);
}
zip_close(zip);

free(buf.data);

• Extract a zip entry into a file.

struct zip_t *zip = zip_open("foo.zip", 0, 'r');
{
    zip_entry_open(zip, "foo-2.txt");
    {
        zip_entry_fread(zip, "foo-2.txt");
    }
    zip_entry_close(zip);
}
zip_close(zip);

• List of all zip entries

struct zip_t *zip = zip_open("foo.zip", 0, 'r');
int i, n = zip_total_entries(zip);
for (i = 0; i < n; ++i) {
    zip_entry_openbyindex(zip, i);
    {
        const char *name = zip_entry_name(zip);
        int isdir = zip_entry_isdir(zip);
        unsigned long long size = zip_entry_size(zip);
        unsigned int crc32 = zip_entry_crc32(zip);
    }
    zip_entry_close(zip);
}
zip_close(zip);

Contribution Rules/Coding Standards

No need to throw away your coding style, just do your best to follow default clang-format style. Apply clang-format to the source files before commit:

for file in $(git ls-files | \grep -E '\.(c|h)$' | \grep -v -- '#')
