CFZIP: A cursory look • What’s it for? (someone had to ask) • It reads, modifies, and writes ZIP-format files • Does it to anything else? • YES! It works with any zip-format file, so it will work with Java JAR, EAR, and WAR files, as well as any other ZIP-based archive format!

What we’ll cover... • Reading/listing contents • Creating a new zip file • Unzipping an existing zip file • Reading one resource at a time • Q & A

Basic Syntax • <cfzip file=”file/or/dir” destination=”#myZipPath#” /> • That zips up a file or folder to {destination} • Other sorts of things require expanded syntax, like...

Read/List Contents • Make sure everyone’s still awake! • Jump to code...

Read single file entry • Reads zip entries as text • Reads them in as binary, too! • BUMMER: You have to tell it which is which. • Expand from example: filters! w00t!

Create a new ZIP file • Requirements: • Full Moon • 1 goat • 1 large kettle • Water • Salt to taste • Seriously... jump to code

UNZIP! (no, not THAT unzip...) • OK, fine, we’ll just jump to the code then... sheesh.

Other things it can do • One/many files at a time: • delete entries (filter-capable) • “update” (basically an overwrite) • list/read are unique - list by filter/read via list • Filters can be used with: • zip • unzip • delete • list • Filters don’t work with read or readBinary

Resources • New LiveDocs pages for CF8: • http://livedocs.adobe.com/coldfusion/8/htmldocs/help.html?content=Tags_u-z_5.html#2851426 • My blog: • http://www.web-relevant.com/blogs/cfobjective • MXNA/FullAsAGoog • http://weblogs.macromedia.com/mxna/ • http://www.fullasagoog.com/ • “Goog” is slang for “egg” • “Full as a goog” means “chock full” in Australia • “Chock full” of Fusioney goodness, that is!
