How to zip a directory in iOS with ZipKit?

Question

I need to zip a subdirectory of my Documents folder in an iOS app. After consulting Google and other SO posts, I\'ve found ZipKit and ZipArchive as two open source projects

Answer 1

Success. Here's the scoop for anyone else:

Let's say we want to zip /Documents/myfolder

NSString *zipFilePath = @"/Documents/zipped.zip";
ZKFileArchive *archive = [ZKFileArchive archiveWithArchivePath:zipFilePath];
NSInteger result = [archive deflateDirectory:@"/Documents/myfolder" relativeToPath:@"/Documents" usingResourceFork:NO];

And the zip file is created!
