Download zip file php

In this step we insert URL path to download zip file we insert all the details like folder to which we were going to save the file and file name. We initialise curl to download the file and add all the proper headers to download file and then it save the zip file in that folder. Now we come to our second part that is extract the downloaded zip file we create a new zip archive object then simply use open function to open zip file and extract the zip file to a particular folder by using extractTo function.

Create ZipArchive Class object for Zip file creation. Define a function createZip to read files and directory from the specified directory path.

If the reading value is the file then add it to zip object using addFile method. If the value is a directory then create an empty directory and call createZip function where pass the directory path.
