= rubyzip

rubyzip is a ruby library for reading and writing zip files.

= Install

If you have rubygems you can install rubyzip directly from the gem
repository

  gem install rubyzip

Otherwise obtain the source (see below) and run

  ruby install.rb

To run the unit tests you need to have test::unit installed

  rake test


= Documentation

There is more than one way to access or create a zip archive with
rubyzip. The basic API is modeled after the classes in
java.util.zip from the Java SDK. This means there are classes such
as Zip::ZipInputStream, Zip::ZipOutputStream and
Zip::ZipFile. Zip::ZipInputStream provides a basic interface for
iterating through the entries in a zip archive and reading from the
entries in the same way as from a regular File or IO
object. ZipOutputStream is the corresponding basic output
facility. Zip::ZipFile provides a mean for accessing the archives
central directory and provides means for accessing any entry without
having to iterate through the archive. Unlike Java's
java.util.zip.ZipFile rubyzip's Zip::ZipFile is mutable, which means
it can be used to change zip files as well.

Another way to access a zip archive with rubyzip is to use rubyzip's
Zip::ZipFileSystem API. Using this API files can be read from and
written to the archive in much the same manner as ruby's builtin
classes allows files to be read from and written to the file system.

rubyzip also features the
zip/ziprequire.rb[link:files/lib/zip/ziprequire_rb.html] module which
allows ruby to load ruby modules from zip archives.

For details about the specific behaviour of classes and methods refer
to the test suite. Finally you can generate the rdoc documentation or
