Golang 1.2: Unzip password protected zip file?

Tags:

go

Looking at the latest release (1.2) zip package - how can I unzip a file that was password protected (using 7zip, AES-256 encoding)? I don't see where/how to add in that information. A simple example would be great!

The archive/zip package seems to only provide basic zip functionality. I would use 7zip to unzip password protected zip files using the os/exec package.

Online 7-zip user guide

The best guide for understanding 7zip is 7-zip.chm, which is in the zip file for the windows command line.

The following code isn't optimal but it shows you how to get the job done.

Code for extracting a password protected zip using 7zip

func extractZipWithPassword() {
    fmt.Printf("Unzipping `%s` to directory `%s`\n", zip_path, extract_path)
    commandString := fmt.Sprintf(`7za e %s -o%s -p"%s" -aoa`, zip_path, extract_path, zip_password)
    commandSlice := strings.Fields(commandString)
    fmt.Println(commandString)
    c := exec.Command(commandSlice[0], commandSlice[1:]...)
    e := c.Run()
    checkError(e)
}

If anyone else runs into this the extraction failing with a password error, try removing the quotes. In my case they were being escaped by go and was causing the extraction to fail.

https://github.com/yeka/zip provides functionality to extract password protected zip file (AES & Zip Standard Encryption aka ZipCrypto).

Below is an example how to use it:

package main

import (
    "os"
    "io"
    "github.com/yeka/zip"
)

func main() {
    file := "file.zip"
    password := "password"
    r, err := zip.OpenReader(file)
    if nil != err {
        panic(err)
    }
    defer r.Close()

    for _, f := range r.File {
        f.SetPassword(password)
        w, err := os.Create(f.Name)
        if nil != err {
            panic(err)
        }
        io.Copy(w, f)
        w.Close()
    }
}

The work is a fork from https://github.com/alexmullins/zip which add support for AES only.
