React Native Requires Chilkat v11.0.0+

Create Password Protected Zip containing a Single File.

See more Zip Examples

Create a password-protected .zip containing a single file. (This uses the older Zip 2.0 encryption scheme, which is weaker and not as secure as AES encryption, which Chilkat Zip also supports.) React Native

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

async function chilkatExample() {
  // This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
  // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

  const zip = new Zip();

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

  zip.setPassword('secret');
  zip.passwordProtect = true;

  const saveExtraPath = false;
  zip.addFile('/temp/hamlet.xml', saveExtraPath);

  try {
    await zip.writeZipAndCloseAsync();
  } catch {
    console.log(zip.lastErrorText);
    return;
  }

  console.log('Zip Created!');
