Zig Requires Chilkat v11.0.0+

Unzip Encrypted Text into a String Variable

See more Zip Examples

Demonstrates how to open an encrypted .zip archive and unzip a text file directly into a string variable. Zig

const std = @import("std");
const chilkat = @import("chilkat");

pub fn main(init: std.process.Init) !void {
    const alloc = init.arena.allocator();

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

    const zip = try chilkat.Zip.init();
    defer zip.deinit();

    // Set the password required for decrypting.
    zip.setDecryptPassword("myPassword");

    zip.openZip("encrypted.zip") catch {
        std.debug.print("{s}\n", .{try zip.getLastErrorText(alloc)});
        return;
    };

    // Locate the file within the Zip to be unzipped into a string variable:
    const entry = try chilkat.ZipEntry.init();
    defer entry.deinit();
    zip.entryMatching("*.csv", entry) catch {
        std.debug.print("{s}\n", .{try zip.getLastErrorText(alloc)});
        return;
    };

    // lineEndingBehavior:
    // 0 = leave unchanged.
    // 1 = convert all to bare LF's
    // 2 = convert all to CRLF's
    const line_ending_behavior = 0;
    const src_charset = "utf-8";

    const str_csv = try entry.unzipToString(alloc, line_ending_behavior, src_charset);
    std.debug.print("{s}\n", .{str_csv});
