Zip
Installation
Linux Systems
For these functions to work, you have to compile PHP with --enable-zip.
-
PHP 5.6: Use the --with-libzip=DIR configure option to use a system libzip installation. libzip version 0.11 is required, with 0.11.2 or later recommended.
-
PHP 7.3: Building against the bundled libzip is discouraged, but still possible by adding --without-libzip to the configuration.
Windows Systems
-
Before PHP 5.3: Users must enable "php_zip.dll" inside of "php.ini" for these functions to work.
-
From PHP 5.3: The ZIP extension is built-in.
