ZipCreator 1.0.1

Crash and error reporting built for busy developers.

👋 Introduction

ZipCreator is a .NET Standard 2.0 library for creating zip files from glob patterns.

⚙️ Installation

The ZipCreator library can be added to your project via NuGet.

Install-Package ZipCreator

🏗️ Usage

Add a using statement for the ZipCreator namespace

using ZipCreator;

Create an instance of Zip from a text file that contains a list of filters separated by new lines.

input.txt

var zip = Zip.CreateFromFile("input.txt");

You can also create an instances of Zip with the default constructor and set the Settings properties according to your use case.

var zip = new Zip();
zip.Settings.Filters = new List<string>() { "path/to/folder/**/*" };
zip.Settings.Interceptors.Add((fileInfo) => Console.WriteLine(fileInfo.FullName));
zip.Settings.Output = new FileInfo(pathToOutputZip);
zip.Settings.Overwrite = true;

The Filters property accepts a list of path globs. You can also exclude patterns by prefixing the pattern with a !.

zip.Settings.Filters = new List<string>()
{
    "path/to/folder/**/*",
    "!path/to/folder/exclude.txt"
};

The Interceptors property is a List<Action<FileInfo>> containting actions that get invoked with each file before it is added to the zip.

zip.Settings.Interceptors.Add((fileInfo) => SignTool(fileInfo.FullName));

The Overwrite property controls whether the Output file should be overwritten if it exists. If Overwrite is false the call to MakeZips will return ZipResult.OverwriteError if the output file exists.

zip.Settings.Overwrite = true

The collection of files that will be operated on can be accessed via the readonly Files property.

var files = zip.Files;

Finally, call Write to create a .zip file and write it to the location specified in Settings.Output.

var result = zip.Write();
