#ZipArchive
ZipArchive is a simple utility class for zipping and unzipping files.
You can do the following:
- Unzip zip files
- Unzip password protected zip files
- Create new zip files
- Append to existing zip files
- Zip files
- Zip-up `NSData` instances (with a filename)
##How to add ZipArchive to your project
1. Add the `SSZipArchive` and `minizip` folders to your project.
2. Add the `libz` library to your target
ZipArchive requires ARC.
###Usage
```objective-c
// Unzipping
NSString *zipPath = @"path_to_your_zip_file";
NSString *destinationPath = @"path_to_the_folder_where_you_want_it_unzipped";
[SSZipArchive unzipFileAtPath:zipPath toDestination:destinationPath];
// Zipping
NSString *zippedPath = @"path_where_you_want_the_file_created";
NSArray *inputPaths = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:
[[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"photo1" ofType:@"jpg"],
[[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"photo2" ofType:@"jpg"]
nil];
[SSZipArchive createZipFileAtPath:zippedPath withFilesAtPaths:inputPaths];
// Zipping directory
[SSZipArchive createZipFileAtPath:zippedPath withContentsOfDirectory:inputPath];
```
