In PHP is it possible to inspect content of a Zip file without extracting its content first?

Question

I have seen the ZipArchive class in PHP which lets you read zip files. But I'm wondering if there is a way to iterate though its content without extracting the file first

Answer 1

As found as a comment on http://www.php.net/ziparchive:

The following code can be used to get a list of all the file names in a zip file.

<?php $za = new ZipArchive();   $za->open('theZip.zip');   for( $i = 0; $i < $za->numFiles; $i++ ){      $stat = $za->statIndex( $i );      print_r( basename( $stat['name'] ) . PHP_EOL );  } ?>
