What would be the easier and safer way in JAVA to store a folder

  • 0

What would be the easier and safer way in JAVA to store a folder in a single file like zip, tar, rar, iso, etc? something like compressing and decompressing it. I don’t really need compression, just putting the whole folder in a single file

I’m looking for a library that allows me to simply give it the path to the folder and obtain the file and the reverse process.

Thanks!

    Check out ZT-Zip on GitHub.

    Compress a directory into a ZIP archive

    ZipUtil.pack(new File("/tmp/demo"), new File("/tmp/demo.zip"));

    Extract a ZIP archive

    ZipUtil.unpack(new File("/tmp/demo.zip"), new File("/tmp/demo"));

    The library supports a lot of other cool operations as well, including existence checking, extracting a subset of a zip archive and comparing zip archives.
