Zipper

Utility intended to simplify zip packages creating.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'zipbundler'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install zipbundler

It is possible to run utility form console:

zipbundler zip config.json

Configuration file config.json should has the following structure:

{
    "name": "out.zip",
    "entries": [
        "path_to_file",
        "path_to_directory",            // real path in file system to file or directory
        {
            "type": "file",             // type of entry, if absent will be treated as 'file'
            "name": "test.json",        // real path in file system to file or directory
            "path": "new_path_in_zip"   // optional
        },
        {
            "type": "zip",              // nested zip archive
            "name": "test.zip",         // name of nested zip archive, can include directories. 'path' property is being ignored for this kind of entries
            "entries": [                // array of entries for nested zip file, same format as above
                "file",
                "dir"
            ],
            "ignoreEntries": [ ... ]    // local array of entries to ignore
        }
    ],
    "ignoreEntries": [
        ".DS_Store"
    ]
}

Please refer this link to find full json schema of the configuration.

Or you can do it from code ZipFileGenerator:

require 'zipper'

...

ZipFileGenerator.new(json_config).write

json_config is a hash variable which should have the same structure as json config file above.
