async_zip

An asynchronous ZIP archive reading/writing crate.

Features

A base implementation atop futures's IO traits.
An extended implementation atop tokio's IO traits.
Support for Stored, Deflate, bzip2, LZMA, zstd, and xz compression methods.
Various different reading approaches (seek, seek factories, stream).
Support for writing complete data (u8 slices) or stream using data descriptors.
Initial support for ZIP64 reading and writing.
Aims for reasonable specification compliance.

Installation & Basic Usage

[dependencies]
async_zip = { version = "0.0.19", features = ["full"] }
tokio-util = { version = "0.7", features = ["compat"] } # if using tokio

A (soon to be) extensive list of examples can be found under the /examples directory.

Feature Flags

full - Enables all below features.
full-wasm - Enables all below features that are compatible with WASM.
tracing - Enables support for tracing.
chrono - Enables support for parsing dates via chrono.
tokio - Enables support for the tokio implementation module.
tokio-fs - Enables support for the tokio::fs reading module.
deflate - Enables support for the Deflate compression method.
bzip2 - Enables support for the bzip2 compression method.
lzma - Enables support for the LZMA compression method.
zstd - Enables support for the zstd compression method.
xz - Enables support for the xz compression method.

Reading

use futures_lite::AsyncReadExt;
use tokio::{io::BufReader, fs::File};
use tokio_util::compat::TokioAsyncReadCompatExt;
use async_zip::base::read1::seek::ZipArchiveReader;

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> async_zip::error::Result<()> {
    let file = BufReader::new(File::open("./Archive.zip").await?).compat();
    let mut archive = ZipArchiveReader::open(file).await?;

    let index = archive.find(b"hello.txt")?.next().expect("has file");
    let size = archive.cdrs().get(index).expect("valid cdr").uncompressed_size()?;
    let mut file = archive.file(index).await?;

    let mut contents = String::with_capacity(size as usize);
    file.read_to_string(&mut contents).await?; // CRC32 and uncompressed size are validated here

    println!("{}", contents);
    Ok(())
}

Writing

use async_zip::tokio::write::ZipFileWriter;
use async_zip::{Compression, ZipEntryBuilder};
use tokio::fs::File;
...

let mut file = File::create("foo.zip").await?;
let mut writer = ZipFileWriter::with_tokio(&mut file);

let data = b"This is an example file.";
let builder = ZipEntryBuilder::new("bar.txt".into(), Compression::Deflate);

writer.write_entry_whole(builder, data).await?;
writer.close().await?;

Contributions

Whilst I will be continuing to maintain this crate myself, reasonable specification compliance is a huge undertaking for a single individual. As such, contributions will always be encouraged and appreciated.

No contribution guidelines exist but additions should be developed with readability in mind, with appropriate comments, and make use of rustfmt.

Issues & Support

Whether you're wanting to report a bug you've come across during use of this crate or are seeking general help/assistance, please utilise the issues tracker and provide as much detail as possible (eg. recreation steps).

I try to respond to issues within a reasonable timeframe.
