Example of method of implementing PHP to compress multiple files into zip format and download them locally

This article describes the method of PHP to compress multiple files into zip format and download them locally. Share it for your reference, as follows:

Without further ado, just upload the code

// Here you need to pay attention to whether the directory exists and has permission to create it$zipname = 'path/'
//This is the file address array to be packaged$files = array("mypath/","mypath/");
$zip = new ZipArchive();
$res = $zip->open($zipname, ZipArchive::CREATE);
if ($res === TRUE) {
 foreach ($files as $file) {
 // Here you can directly use the original file name to package it, or you can directly name it. Note that if the file name is the same, it will cause the subsequent file to overwrite the previous file, so it is recommended to rename it  $new_filename = substr($file, strrpos($file, '/') + 1);
  $zip->addFile($file, $new_filename);
 }
}
//Close the file$zip->close();

// Here is the download zip fileheader("Content-Type: application/zip");
header("Content-Transfer-Encoding: Binary");
header("Content-Length: " . filesize($zipname));
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=\"" . basename($zipname) . "\"");
readfile($zipname);
exit;

Attached:Here is a zip compression class for you:
