Scripts/UnZip

Extract Zip Archive

This script defines the verb unzip. unzip extracts a specified Zip archive in a specified sub-directory using the Zip tools installed as part of the J 6.02 installation (jpath ~tools/zip).

The code here was originally extracted from the source for the J 6.01 JAL Package Manager (pacman.ijs), but has been simplified for J 6.02. I have tried to retain the cross-platform and cross-external-unzip-program support, but have only tested the script on Windows Vista.

Example

   load jpath '~temp/extractzip.ijs'
   load 'dir'
   
      (0 0$0)-: 2 1 dir 'c:\test folder\' NB. Show that folder doesn't already exist
1
   
   unzip (jpath '~addons/arc/zip/test.zip'); 'c:\test folder\'
Archive:  C:/Program Files/j602/addons/arc/zip/test.zip
  inflating: c:/test folder/test1.ijs  
  inflating: c:/test folder/test2.txt  
  inflating: c:/test folder/zlib.bmp  
   creating: c:/test folder/other/ 
  inflating: c:/test folder/other/test3.txt  

   
      2 1 dir 'c:\test folder\'

«extractzip.ijs»= Script file

NB. =========================================================
NB. Extracts Zip archive to desired sub-directory

coclass 'punzip'

)

UNZIP=: '"',(jpath '~tools/zip/unzip.exe'),'" -o -C '
dquote=: '"'&, @ (,&'"')
hostcmd=: [: 2!:0 '(' , ] , ' || true)'"_

The non-Unix part of the shellcmd verb was changed to use spawn rather than shell, because it calls the external unzip program directly rather than using a batch file as was the case in J 6.01.

shellcmd=: 3 : 0
  if. IFUNIX do.
    hostcmd y
  else.
    spawn y
  end.

Note that the unzip program cannot extract a zip archive to a sub-directory of a previously non-existing directory. That is you must ensure that the path to directory you wish extract into, already exists. You may find the pathcreate verb from the Addons/general/dirutils Addon useful in that situation.

NB. returns 'Ok' if successful or 'Unexpected error' if not
NB. y is 2-item list of boxed strings
NB.  0{::y filename zip file to extract
NB.  1{::y name of directory to extract zip file to
NB. can't extract to non-existing multilevel path.
