I looked at the default Zip library that comes with the JDK and the Apache compression libs and I am unhappy with them for 3 reasons:
They are bloated and have bad API design. I have to write 50 lines of boiler plate byte array output, zip input, file out streams and close relevant streams and catch exceptions and move byte buffers on my own? Why can't I have a simple API that looks like this
Zipper.unzip(InputStream zipFile, File targetDirectory, String password = null)andZipper.zip(File targetDirectory, String password = null)that just works?It seems zipping unzipping destroys file meta-data and password handling is broken.
Also, all the libraries I tried were 2-3x slow compared to the command line zip tools I get with UNIX?
For me (2) and (3) are minor points but I really want a good tested library with a one-line interface.
I know its late and there are lots of answers but this zip4j is one of the best libraries for zipping I have used. Its simple (no boiler code) and can easily handle password protected files.
import net.lingala.zip4j.exception.ZipException;
import net.lingala.zip4j.core.ZipFile;
public static void unzip(){
String source = "some/compressed/file.zip";
String destination = "some/destination/folder";
String password = "password";
try {
ZipFile zipFile = new ZipFile(source);
if (zipFile.isEncrypted()) {
zipFile.setPassword(password);
}
zipFile.extractAll(destination);
} catch (ZipException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
The Maven dependency is:
<dependency>
<groupId>net.lingala.zip4j</groupId>
<artifactId>zip4j</artifactId>
<version>1.3.2</version>
</dependency>
With Apache Commons-IO's IOUtils you can do this:
java.util.zip.ZipFile zipFile = new ZipFile(file);
try {
Enumeration<? extends ZipEntry> entries = zipFile.entries();
while (entries.hasMoreElements()) {
ZipEntry entry = entries.nextElement();
File entryDestination = new File(outputDir, entry.getName());
if (entry.isDirectory()) {
entryDestination.mkdirs();
} else {
entryDestination.getParentFile().mkdirs();
InputStream in = zipFile.getInputStream(entry);
OutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(entryDestination);
IOUtils.copy(in, out);
IOUtils.closeQuietly(in);
out.close();
}
}
} finally {
zipFile.close();
}
It's still some boilerplate code, but it has only 1 non-exotic dependency: Commons-IO
Extract zip file and all its subfolders, using only the JDK:
private void extractFolder(String zipFile,String extractFolder)
{
try
{
int BUFFER = 2048;
File file = new File(zipFile);
ZipFile zip = new ZipFile(file);
String newPath = extractFolder;
new File(newPath).mkdir();
Enumeration zipFileEntries = zip.entries();
// Process each entry
while (zipFileEntries.hasMoreElements())
{
// grab a zip file entry
ZipEntry entry = (ZipEntry) zipFileEntries.nextElement();
String currentEntry = entry.getName();
File destFile = new File(newPath, currentEntry);
//destFile = new File(newPath, destFile.getName());
File destinationParent = destFile.getParentFile();
// create the parent directory structure if needed
destinationParent.mkdirs();
if (!entry.isDirectory())
{
BufferedInputStream is = new BufferedInputStream(zip
.getInputStream(entry));
int currentByte;
// establish buffer for writing file
byte data[] = new byte[BUFFER];
// write the current file to disk
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(destFile);
BufferedOutputStream dest = new BufferedOutputStream(fos,
BUFFER);
// read and write until last byte is encountered
while ((currentByte = is.read(data, 0, BUFFER)) != -1) {
dest.write(data, 0, currentByte);
}
dest.flush();
dest.close();
is.close();
}
}
}
catch (Exception e)
{
Log("ERROR: "+e.getMessage());
}
}
Zip files and all its subfolders:
private void addFolderToZip(File folder, ZipOutputStream zip, String baseName) throws IOException {
File[] files = folder.listFiles();
for (File file : files) {
if (file.isDirectory()) {
addFolderToZip(file, zip, baseName);
} else {
String name = file.getAbsolutePath().substring(baseName.length());
ZipEntry zipEntry = new ZipEntry(name);
zip.putNextEntry(zipEntry);
IOUtils.copy(new FileInputStream(file), zip);
zip.closeEntry();
}
}
}
Another option that you can check out is zt-zip available from Maven central and project page at https://github.com/zeroturnaround/zt-zip
It has the standard packing and unpacking functionality (on streams and on filesystem) + lots of helper methods to test for files in an archive or add/remove entries.
Full Implementation to Zip/Unzip a Folder/File with zip4j
Download the jar from here, and add it to your project build path. The class bellow can compress and extract any file or folder, with or without password protection-
import java.io.File;
import net.lingala.zip4j.model.ZipParameters;
import net.lingala.zip4j.util.Zip4jConstants;
import net.lingala.zip4j.core.ZipFile;
public class Compressor {
public static void zip(String targetPath, String destinationFilePath, String password) {
try {
ZipParameters parameters = new ZipParameters();
parameters.setCompressionMethod(Zip4jConstants.COMP_DEFLATE);
parameters.setCompressionLevel(Zip4jConstants.DEFLATE_LEVEL_NORMAL);
if(password.length()>0){
parameters.setEncryptFiles(true);
parameters.setEncryptionMethod(Zip4jConstants.ENC_METHOD_AES);
parameters.setAesKeyStrength(Zip4jConstants.AES_STRENGTH_256);
parameters.setPassword(password);
}
ZipFile zipFile = new ZipFile(destinationFilePath);
File targetFile = new File(targetPath);
if(targetFile.isFile()){
zipFile.addFile(targetFile, parameters);
}else if(targetFile.isDirectory()){
zipFile.addFolder(targetFile, parameters);
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
public static void unzip(String targetZipFilePath, String destinationFolderPath, String password) {
try {
ZipFile zipFile = new ZipFile(targetZipFilePath);
if (zipFile.isEncrypted()) {
zipFile.setPassword(password);
}
zipFile.extractAll(destinationFolderPath);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
/**/ /// for test only
public static void main(String[] args) {
String targetPath = "target\\file\\or\\folder\\path";
String zipFilePath = "zip\\file\\Path";
String unzippedFolderPath = "destination\\folder\\path";
String password = "your_password"; // keep it EMPTY<""> for applying no password protection
Compressor.zip(targetPath, zipFilePath, password);
Compressor.unzip(zipFilePath, unzippedFolderPath, password);
}/**/
}
A very nice project is TrueZip.
TrueZIP is a Java based plug-in framework for virtual file systems (VFS) which provides transparent access to archive files as if they were just plain directories
For example (from the website):
File file = new TFile("archive.tar.gz/README.TXT");
OutputStream out = new TFileOutputStream(file);
try {
// Write archive entry contents here.
...
} finally {
out.close();
}
Another option is JZlib. In my experience, it's less "file-centered" than zip4J, so if you need to work on in-memory blobs rather than files, you may want to take a look at it.
There's a full example here for zipping and unzipping files recursively: http://developer-tips.hubpages.com/hub/Zipping-and-Unzipping-Nested-Directories-in-Java-using-Apache-Commons-Compress
Did you have a look at http://commons.apache.org/vfs/ ? It claims to simplify a lot of things for you. But I've never used it in a project.
I also am not aware of Java-Native compression libs other than the JDK or Apache Compression.
I remember once we ripped some features out of Apache Ant - they have a lot of utils for compression / decompression built in.
Sample code with VFS would look like:
File zipFile = ...;
File outputDir = ...;
FileSystemManager fsm = VFS.getManager();
URI zip = zipFile.toURI();
FileObject packFileObject = fsm.resolveFile(packLocation.toString());
FileObject to = fsm.toFileObject(destDir);
FileObject zipFS;
try {
zipFS = fsm.createFileSystem(packFileObject);
fsm.toFileObject(outputDir).copyFrom(zipFS, new AllFileSelector());
} finally {
zipFS.close();
}
