How to open a zip and modify the filename of one or more files within the zip before unzipping. React Native

import { Zip, ZipEntry } from '@chilkat/react-native'

async function chilkatExample() {
  let success = false;

  // This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
  // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

  const zip = new Zip();

  try {
    await zip.openZipAsync('test.zip');
  } catch {
    console.log(zip.lastErrorText);
    return;
  }

  const entry = new ZipEntry();

  success = zip.entryOf('hamlet.xml', entry);
  if (!success) {
    console.log(zip.lastErrorText);
    return;
  }

  entry.fileName = 'hamlet2.xml';

  success = zip.entryOf('helloWorld.pl', entry);
  if (!success) {
    console.log(zip.lastErrorText);
    return;
  }

  entry.fileName = 'hw.pl';

  // Now unzip to the "test" subdirectory, under our current
  // working directory:
  const numFilesUnzipped = await zip.unzipAsync('test');
  if (numFilesUnzipped < 0) {
    console.log(zip.lastErrorText);
    return;
  }

  // The filenames within the .zip are unchanged, but it unzipped
  // test/hw.pl and test/hamlet2.xml
