This function, at least from my experience, maintains/forces the directory structure within the ZIP file.
ie. if you have FOLDER1/File1.txt in the zip file and you use
$zip->extractTo('/extract', 'FOLDER1/File1.txt');
the location of the extracted file will be:
/extract/FOLDER1/File1.txt
ZipArchive::extractTo
(No version information available, might be only in CVS)
ZipArchive::extractTo — Extract the archive contents
Description
Extract the complete archive or the given files to the specified destination.
Parameters
- destination
-
Location where to extract the files.
- entries
-
The entries to extract. It accepts either a single entry name or an array of names.
Return Values
Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.
Examples
This example opens a ZIP file archive, reads each file in the archive and prints out its contents. The test2.zip archive used in this example is one of the test archives in the ZZIPlib source distribution.
Example #1 Extract all entries
<?php
$zip = new ZipArchive;
if ($zip->open('test.zip') === TRUE) {
$zip->extractTo('/my/destination/dir/');
$zip->close();
echo 'ok';
} else {
echo 'failed';
}
?>
Example #2 Extract only two entries
<?php
$zip = new ZipArchive;
$res = $zip->open('test_im.zip');
if ($res === TRUE) {
$zip->extractTo('/my/destination/dir/', array('pear_item.gif', 'testfromfile.php'));
$zip->close();
echo 'ok';
} else {
echo 'failed';
}
?>
