ZIP compress files

gulp-zip

ZIP compress files

Install

npm install --save-dev gulp-zip

Usage

import gulp from 'gulp';
import zip from 'gulp-zip';

export default () => (
	gulp.src('src/*')
		.pipe(zip('archive.zip'))
		.pipe(gulp.dest('dist'))
);

API

Supports streaming mode.

zip(filename, options?)

filename

Type: string

options

Type: object

compress

Type: boolean
Default: true

modifiedTime

Type: Date
Default: undefined

Overrides the modification timestamp for all files added to the archive.

Tip: Setting it to the same value across executions enables you to create stable archives that change only when the contents of their entries change, regardless of whether those entries were "touched" or regenerated.

buffer

Type: boolean
Default: true

If true, the resulting ZIP file contents will be a buffer. Large zip files may not be possible to buffer, depending on the size of Buffer MAX_LENGTH.

If false, the ZIP file contents will be a stream.

We use this option instead of relying on gulp.src's buffer option because we are mapping many input files to one output file and can't reliably detect what the output mode should be based on the inputs, since Vinyl streams could contain mixed streaming and buffered content.

gulp-zip's Issues

Utilize JSZip.file() to update data in exist zip file

See also JSZip doc: https://stuk.github.io/jszip/documentation/api_jszip/file_data.html

As document mentioned, we should just update zip entry if the zip file does exist rather than recreate a new zip again, so that it could combine with gulp-changed to speed up our incremental build.

Try to open exist zip by var zip = new JSZip(filePath) at [1].

[1] https://github.com/sindresorhus/gulp-zip/blob/master/index.js#L17

doesn't seem to create a zip file

// Process scripts and concatenate them into one output file
gulp.task('build', ['clean'], function () {
    gulp.src(['./addon.*', './changelog.txt', 'fanart.jpg', 'icon.png', 'LICENSE.txt'])
        .pipe(gulp.dest(bases.dist+'/'+bases.pkg));
    gulp.src(['./resources/**/*'])
        .pipe(gulp.dest(bases.dist+'/'+bases.pkg+'/resources'));
    gulp.src(bases.dist+'/'+bases.pkg)
        .pipe(zip(bases.pkg+'.zip'))
        .pipe(gulp.dest(bases.dist));
});

Hi! Can i compress folder with sub dirs? Any options for this?

Respect file base path

Right now you are using file cwd, making it impossible to flatten files.

---

That being said, is there a sensible way how to support custom archive folder where files will end up?

755 folder permissions stomped on my lambda...

#62

This fix (i think) broke my AWS lambda function. With 3.0.2 it works fine but with 3.1.0, the AWS lambda isn't able to load external modules.
(it could be something else but we have explicitly tested with the only change being the version number of gulp-zip)

I'm not saying this is a bug in gulp-zip - but i would like to know if there are options to set it back to the permissions i think were working. if you think it was some other change between 3.0.2 and 3.1.0, i'd be glad to explore that too.

Thanks for your help.

Update yazl to resole OSX archiver bug

Yazl sould be updated to fix this issue:

How do i zip a directory?

Clearly doing this

gulp.task('build', ['clean', 'html', 'images', 'fonts'], function() {
  return gulp.src('dist/**/*').
    pipe($.size({title: 'build', gzip: true})).
    pipe($.zip('tremor.zip')).
    pipe(gulp.dest('dist'));
});

produces a zip with a flat file structure, but i want the zip file to unzip into a folder when running unzip command, so is there any way to stuff all the output into a folder before zipping it up?

v3.0.0 fails with TypeError: Cannot read property 'length' of null

2.0.3 works 100%.

Upgrade to 3.0.0 and get this:

Cannot zip files 1GB or larger

Trying to zip a file 1GB or larger fails with the following error:

RangeError: File size is greater than possible Buffer: 0x3FFFFFFF bytes

This is easily reproducible by creating a 1GB file ("truncate -s 1024M output.file" is probably the quickest way to test this Linux/OSX/Cygwin) and running gulp-zip on that directory. Multiple files just under 1GB work just fine, so it's definitely the size of each input file, not the combined size.

gulp zip is recreating empty dir structure on target

when running the following:

gulp.task('zip', function () {
    gulp.src('build/**/*')
        .pipe(zip('build.' + pkg.version + '.zip'))
        .pipe(gulp.dest('builds'));
});

the archive is created correctly (with the inner path problem mentioned in other issues).
The problem is that other dirs are created in my target builds directory.

These dirs do exist in the src build folder, but obvoiusly I don't want them to be re-created empty in the target builds directory.

Any help on this?

Skips empty folders

Hello,

I have following folder structure:

• zip_test
  • folder1
    • test.txt
    • folder2
      • test.txt
  • folder2 //empty folder

gulp.task('ziptest', function () {
    return gulp.src('zip_test/**')
        .pipe(ziptest('archive.zip'))
        .pipe(gulp.dest(''));
});

As a result I have archive.zip with all folders except /folder2

Test environment:

1. Windows 8.1
2. "gulp": "^3.8.10"
3. "gulp-zip": "^2.0.3"
4. node -v v0.12.0

Add ability to add comments in zip files

There's a new feature in jszip to add comments in zip files, would be awesome to have these kind of options here too.

How to ignore the folder

I use gulp-zip to archive the folder

build.js
build.css

But I extract the zip, it contain a folder, how can I ignore that folder

archive
  | - build.js
  ` - build.css

Exclude folders

I have a base project folder with this structure:

backup
dest
node_modules
src
gulpfile.js
package.json

I want to backup dest and src folders + gulpfile.js and package.json. I try several ways and nothing works:

return gulp.src(['./**/*', '!' + backup_dir, '!' + node_dir])
        .pipe(zip(backup_dir + name))
        .pipe(gulp.dest('.'));
return gulp.src([source_dir + '**/*', dest_dir + '**/*', '!' + backup_dir, '!' + node_dir])
        .pipe(zip(backup_dir + name))
        .pipe(gulp.dest('.'));

in first way it zip complete project folder and in second it merge all files and there is no dest and src folder.
what should i do?

Passing object as params

Hi!

I would like to propose to change the way params gets passed.

The problem is that when creating dynamically the filename value (using async tasks or functions) the filename is not updated.

For example (maybe to raw):

module.exports = function () {
    var filename = 'file_';
    return gulp.src(path)
        .pipe(through.obj(function (file, enc, cb) {
            exec("git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD", {cwd: file.cwd}, function (err, stdout, stderr) {
                filename = filename + stdout;
                this.push(file);
                cb();
            }.bind(this));
        }))
        .pipe(zip(filename + '.zip'))
}

The output zip will always have the following name: file_.zip

Perhaps there is an easy way to solve this, but haven't found it.

I would propose to add the possibility to pass functions as params, as here: gulpjs/vinyl-fs@583d30e

gulp-zip includes the cwd in the zip

It would be nice if the cwd wasn't included in the zip archive as the root folder, or is this a limitation of how zip works on a Mac?

I'm used to be able to add files from dir /foo/bar/**/* to an archive, set the cwd to foo and end up with /bar/**/* as the archive structure.

Right now gulp-zip takes the cwd as the root, so you'll always end up with /foo/bar/**/*inside the archive.

Any possible solution to that?

gulp-zip changing the folder permission from 755 to 775 present in zip file

Task written is as below:

gulp.task('default', function () {
        return gulp.src('*')
                .pipe(zip('archive.zip'))
                .pipe(gulp.dest('./'));
});

zip task doesnt finish with large files

trying to zip an around 58MB large exe-file on windows with the latest gulp but the plugin doesnt finish the job. also with a 68mb avi file.

a 40mb exe job however gets zipped in finite time :-) any ideas or hints how I could narrow the problem down or get around it?

Ignoring folders that start with .

It seems the module is ignoring folders that hare prefixed with .

I have a folder with the following structure:

dist/
-- .cordova/
-- hooks/
-- www/

I want a zip that will unzip to the following:

.cordova/
hooks/
www/

Here is my task setup:

gulp.task('zip-release', ['package-release'], function() {
  return gulp.src('dist/**/')
          .pipe(zip('release.zip'))
          .pipe(gulp.dest('.'));
})

I end up with the hooks and www folders inside the zip, but not the .cordova folder.

How can I zip files including parent directory?

I have folders structure:

| build
    |_irep
        |_name1
            |_file1
            |_file2
        |_name2
            |_file3
            |_file4

I need to zip each folder in directory build/irep including directory in name1, name2 in zips
So as a result I should have two zip files like this:

name1.zip
    |_name1
        |_file1
        |_file2

I've found a solution using rename plugin and changing directory but I guess there is better solution (probably using cwd), but I could not find it.

My task:

gulp.src('build/irep/' + fullName + '/**')
    .pipe(rename(function (path) {
        path.dirname = fullName + '/' + path.dirname;
    }))
    .pipe(zip(fullName + '.zip'))
    .pipe(gulp.dest('build/irep'));

Prevent adding the zipped file into the archive

All my zips include an zero-byte archive with the same filename (build.zip).

$ node -v
v4.2.3

/home/batman/dev/arkham_routing_app

Files:

deploy/
  files/
    application.jar
    pics/
      buddies/
        robin.jpg
    icon.svg
    LICENSE
  bin/

const deployDir = "./deploy";

return gulp.src('**/*', { base: deployDir + '/files', cwd: deployDir + '/files/' })
        // Compress the shebang
        .pipe(zip('build.zip'))
        .pipe(gulp.dest(deployDir + '/bin'));

Result (zip content):

home/
  batman/
    dev/
      arkham_routing_app/
        deploy/
          bin/
            build.zip
application.jar
pics/
  buddies/
    robin.jpg
icon.svg
LICENSE

Expected result:

application.jar
pics/
  buddies/
    robin.jpg
icon.svg
LICENSE

How to zip nested directories?

I need zip the content in nested directories but i dont know a recursive parameter or similar function

How can I keep directory structure?

problem using gulp-clean

Hi! I'm having a problem when I'm using gulp-clean.
It's pretty hard to reproduce, but, basically, everytime I use gulp-clean or rimraf, the generated zip misses some files.

This works:

gulp.task('clean', function() {
  rimraf.sync(opts.build);
});

gulp.task('zip', ['build'], function() {
  return gulp.src([
      opts.build + '**/*.*'
    ], {
      base: opts.build
    })
    .pipe(using())
    .pipe(zip('build.zip'))
    .pipe(gulp.dest(opts.build));
});
gulp.task('build', ['config', 'webconfig', 'vendor', 'less', 'js', 'html', 'index']);

This doesn't:

gulp.task('clean', function() {
  rimraf.sync(opts.build);
});

gulp.task('zip', ['build'], function() {
  return gulp.src([
      opts.build + '**/*.*'
    ], {
      base: opts.build
    })
    .pipe(using())
    .pipe(zip('build.zip'))
    .pipe(gulp.dest(opts.build));
});
gulp.task('build', ['clean', 'config', 'webconfig', 'vendor', 'less', 'js', 'html', 'index']);

Notice the clean in the second 'build' task. Whenever I run the second example, the zip task misses two files (app.js and index.html).
The first example runs just fine, but I can't guarantee that all files are the new files.
Any thoughts?

Error with zip

I have error with your example code:

node_modules/gulp-zip/node_modules/yazl/index.js:65
entry.uncompressedSize = buffer.length;
^
TypeError: Cannot read property 'length' of null

dynamic filenames

Is it possible to use the filename from gulp.src as filename for the generated archive?

I have a list of folders like this

packages
 - package-1
 - package-2
 - package-3

and want to generate:

build
 - package-1.zip
 - package-2.zip
 - package-3.zip

First problem:

if i provide gulp.src('packages/*') it generates one zip file which contains all 3 folders.
How can i split this into 3 separate zipfiles?

second problem:

zip('archive.zip') takes the filename as string. is there a way to provide the filename from gulp.src?

The plugin dosen't work when used to zip a filename.docset

I use it to zip a folder, there is a folder named filename.docset in this folder, it not works (do nothing).

For example, it's like https://github.com/exlee/d3-dash-gen D3JS.docset.

What's wrong?

Unzipped file on unix has invalid permissions

On windows, fs.stat of directory returns 040644, and since yazl mode option is set using this value when called from gulp-zip, the unzipped directory on linux cannot be accesed.

For directories, it should use 040775 as yazl does or leave the decision to yazl itself.

Change root within zip?

gulp.task('default', function () {
    gulp.src('src/*')
        .pipe(zip('archive.zip'))
        .pipe(gulp.dest('dist'));
});

The above results in the "src" folder being the top level within the zip file. How do I make the contents of "src" the top level of the zip instead?

Keep root directory

Is there a way to create the zip such that the root directory used is preserved?

So that ./dist/foo/**/* will unzip into ./foo

`D` attribute is missing from zipped directories

We're having some problems right now with zip files generated by gulp-zip because the D attribute is not added to directories included in the zip file. The zip files we're using are being processed by an android library that apparently looks for that attribute to find directories before crawling them, and because it's missing the whole process is just ending right there. I'm not exactly sure how the file list is fed to gulp-zip from the gulp.src call, but I did see that the jsZip library has a .folder method as well as the .file method that gulp-zip currently uses. Would it be possible to check each member of the input list using fs.stat and switch between .folder and .file depending on whether or not that item is a file or directory?

Error on unzip / uncompress font file

Hello, I zip font files from FonfAwesome, then when trying to unzip it using default Mac archive utility app, nothing happens. When using unarchiver.app I got error on decrunching

To replicate, I just use:

        gulp.src('**', {cwd: path.join(process.cwd(), 'project/fonts')})
            .pipe(zip('fonts.zip'))
            .pipe(gulp.dest('dist/fonts')),

project/fonts contain all the default 4 fonts downloaded from http://fontawesome.io/

Do you have any idea what happens?

Default mode for folder under windows

Please add option to set default mode for folders in zip archive under windows.

Option for compression level

... would be nice :)

Add encryption option

It would be nice to support encryption with a password.

Replace chalk with gulp-util.color

gulp-util has an instance of chalk built in.
Removing require('chalk'), and replacing chalk.blue with gutil.colors.blue will keep it even with gulp's plugin style.

Corrupted archives on Windows machines

After updating to latest version (3.1.0) archives created on windows machines (Confirmed on win8 and win10) are corrupted.

Works fine on OSX.

Version 3.0.2 was ok.

Edit: This is weird since they are not really corrupted. They appear as corrupted on both OSX and linux machines, but are fine on windows machines.

Archiving on windows prevents opening files on linux/OSX.
Archiving on OSX/Linux is fine.

This prevents deployment to services such as EBS, which require zip to be uploaded.

TypeError: Cannot read property 'length' of null in index.js:65

I have the following code and can't make it work:

gulp.src(dist_dir+'**/*', {base:'.'})
        .pipe(zip('archive.zip'))
        .pipe(gulp.dest('dist/'))

I get an error every time I run it with different configurations:

TypeError: Cannot read property 'length' of null in index.js:65
  entry.uncompressedSize = buffer.length;
                                 ^

Zero size files in archive

Noticed that some files in archive are zero size, that happens only with graphics files, png, jpg.
Ubuntu

Zip is empty/invalid

Created a pretty basic sample. The zip file is written to disc, and the file size reported by Windows does seem to suggest that something is in there. However, navigating inside the file shows nothing. Also, extracting the file reports that the zip archive is invalid.

Test, sorry :)

Invalid zip archive produced

When I try to unpack the archive produced by gulp-zip, I sometimes get error: invalid compressed data to inflate

This happens with some PNG files as well as JS files. The file size is, however, not zero as far as I can tell.

ZIP error on OSX - Quarantine folders

Hi,

I generated a ZIP with gulp-zip on Windows and then tried to open it with native unarchiver on OSX. I got an "Error 1 - Operation not permitted". The file can be open on Windows and on Linux & OSX with the "unzip" command line. Also, the file can be open with an alternative application on OSX (The Unarchiver).

After some investigations, I discovered the extracted folder could not be deleted from OSX Finder. So I tried to delete it from command line, and could only delete some sub-files and sub-folder, but not 2 specific folders.

I tried to use ls -@l command to display extended attribute keys of these folders, and this was the result :

The folders "img" and "css" were put in quarantine by OSX !
Do you know if it could be linked to gulp-zip ?

Thanks for your help.

Zip file is rejected by Chrome webstore

Sorry I can't be more descriptive, but if you create a zip of a chrome extension folder with gulp-zip and try and upload it to the chrome webstore the server will reject the file with an error. http://i.imgur.com/dTqk6Kz.png. I also noticed that zipping the same folder from the OS X command line results in a file size that is about 1k larger than when zipping with gulp http://i.imgur.com/rvlCXsq.png. This is the only info I have from google {"errorMessage":{"reason":"REQUEST_REJECTED","additionalInfo":{"uploader_service.GoogleRupioAdditionalInfo":{"completionInfo":{"status":"REJECTED","customerSpecificInfo":{"extension_id":"null","errors":["Chrome Web Store system error, please try again later."],"upload_status":"FAILURE"}},"requestRejectedInfo":{"reasonDescription":"agent_rejected"}}},"upload_id":"redacted"}}

no zipfile

Finally trying gulp out tonight and I'm not sure if I'm just not getting it, too tired, or there's a bug in this module.

Though the two tests pass, I can repeat this with the included gulpfile:

~/projects/pr/gulp-zip ✓ master ❯ cat gulpfile.js
var gulp = require('gulp');
var zip = require('./index');

gulp.task('default', function () {
    gulp.src('fixture/fixture.txt')
        .pipe(zip('test.zip'))
        .pipe(gulp.dest('dest'));
});
~/projects/pr/gulp-zip ✓ master ❯ gulp
[00:09:58] Using gulpfile ~/projects/pr/gulp-zip/gulpfile.js
[00:09:58] Starting 'default'...
[00:09:58] Finished 'default' after 7.7 ms
~/projects/pr/gulp-zip ✓ master ❯ ls -al dest
ls: dest: No such file or directory

Zipping .htaccess file

Great module. Thanks for doing this. For some reason, I can't get it to pull in a .htaccess file in the zipped bundle. have tried:

var Src = 'aws/*';
and

var Src = 'aws//.';

gulp.task('aws_zip', function () {
var Src = 'aws/*';
var Dst = 'aws';

return gulp.src(Src)
.pipe(zip('aws_archive.zip'))
.pipe(gulp.dest(Dst));
});

Any suggestions? Thanks.

Problem with OSX's unzip

I'm using this module to create a ZIP containing a massive node-webkit .app. If I unzip with OSX's unzip on the command-line (no flags or errors returned) then the app will not open. The error I found in the Console utility is:

Attempting to SIGCONT to pid #37280 failed, with errno=#3 , or the process failed to actually start.

This is weird because I would assume it has nothing to do with this module (but rather the unzipping or a problem with my node-webkit app) but...

• If I extract by double clicking the ZIP in Finder, then it's fine.
• If I create the ZIP using the context menu in Finder (and extract using unzip from the command-line like before), it's fine.

After zipping with gulp-zip, extracting with unzip and then running chmod -R 777 my.app, it's fine. Could be related to nwjs/nw.js#1303 (comment).

Add `options.compression`

I need to turn off compression for a project. Would be great if I could pass compression: 'STORE' (which would be passed along to jszip). We could still default to 'DEFLATE'.

Artifact polution

I do this:

      var entryPointPath = 'build/debug/myproject/myservice/*';
      var outputFile = 'package.zip';
      var outputPath = 'dist/debug/myproject';
      return gulp.src(entryPointPath)
        .pipe(gzip(outputFile))
        .pipe(gulp.dest(outputPath));

After all runs, I see the package.zip is inside dist/debug/myproject/package.zip which is good and expected.

But the package is also present in build/debug/myproject/package.zip, why does this happen ?
How can it be avoided ?
