1. Type Definitions

1.1. FileReference

File reference for an archive file. It can be either a File object or a virtual path.

        typedef (DOMString or File) FileReference;

Since: 2.3

1.2. ArchiveCompressionLevel

Enumeration for the compression level.

        enum ArchiveCompressionLevel {"STORE", "FAST", "NORMAL", "BEST"};

Since: 2.3

  • STORE - No compression. The file is stored unchanged.
  • FAST - Choose the fastest compression method, compression savings will be less.
  • NORMAL - Default compression level.
  • BEST - Choose the best compression method, compression may be slow.

2. Interfaces

2.1. ArchiveManagerObject

The ArchiveManagerObject interface defines what is instantiated in the Tizen object.

        [NoInterfaceObject] interface ArchiveManagerObject {
            readonly attribute ArchiveManager archive;
        };
        Tizen implements ArchiveManagerObject;

Since: 2.3

The tizen.archive object allows access to the Archive API.

2.2. ArchiveFileOptions

The ArchiveFileOptions dictionary represents the option to decide if an archive file can be overwritten when an archive file is opened.

        dictionary ArchiveFileOptions {
            boolean overwrite;
    
        };

Since: 2.3

Dictionary members

boolean overwrite

Indicates whether opening an archive file for writing can overwrite the contents of the existing file.

  • true - The archive file is overwritten if an archive file with a same name exists in the same location. The previous contents are lost.
  • false - The archive file is not overwritten if an archive file with a same name exists in the same location.

The default value is false

See description of the mode argument of the open() method.

Since: 2.3

2.3. ArchiveFileEntryOptions

The ArchiveFileEntryOptions dictionary controls behavior when adding a file to an archive.

        dictionary ArchiveFileEntryOptions {
            DOMString destination;
    
            boolean stripSourceDirectory;
    
            ArchiveCompressionLevel compressionLevel;
    
        };

Since: 2.3

Dictionary members

DOMString destination

Path where ArchiveFileEntry should be stored in an archive file.

Since: 2.3

Remark : If destination is not set, then the root directory of archive will be used (equivalent to destination = "").

boolean stripSourceDirectory

Controls whether leading directory information is stripped from the source file name before storing.

The virtual root is always removed. To omit all the remaining directory names, set stripSourceDirectory to true.

Source file name Target file name when destination is "mypackage"

stripSourceDirectory: true

stripSourceDirectory: false

documents/tizen/archive/example/test.js mypackage/test.js mypackage/tizen/archive/example/test.js
wgt-private/test/js/main.js mypackage/main.js mypackage/test/js/main.js
downloads/test.c mypackage/test.c mypackage/test.c

Since: 2.3

Remark : The default value is false.

ArchiveCompressionLevel compressionLevel

Compression level.

Since: 2.3

Remark : The default compression level is NORMAL.

2.4. ArchiveManager

The ArchiveManager interface provides methods for global operations related to ArchiveFile.

        [NoInterfaceObject] interface ArchiveManager {
            long open(FileReference file,
                      FileMode mode,
                      ArchiveFileSuccessCallback onsuccess,
                      optional ErrorCallback? onerror,

            void abort(long operationIdentifier) raises(WebAPIException);
        };

Since: 2.3

Methods

open

Opens the archive file. After this operation, it is possible to add or get files to and from the archive.

    long open(FileReference file, FileMode mode, ArchiveFileSuccessCallback onsuccess, optional ErrorCallback? onerror, optional ArchiveFileOptions? options);
                 

Since: 2.3

The errorCallback is launched with these error types:

  • InvalidValuesError: If archiveFile format is not recognized
  • NotFoundError: If the mode is "r" and the file does not exist, or the mode is not "r" and the file cannot be created because the path of the file after excluding its file name does not exist
  • IOError: If the access is denied due to insufficient permissions
  • UnknownError: In case of any other error

Use mode depending on which operation are intended:

Mode Description
r Use this mode for extracting or getting information about the contents of an archive file.
file must exist. If the file does not exist, onerror will be invoked (NotFoundError).
When an archive file is opened in this mode, add() will not be available. (IOError will be thrown.)

w Use this mode to create an archive file and add files to the archive file.
If file does not exist, it will be created.
If file exists and the overwrite option is true, the existing file will be overwritten with empty archive.
If file exists and the overwrite option is false, onerror callback will be invoked (InvalidModificationError).
When an archive file is opened in this mode, getEntries(), getEntryByName(), and extractAll() are not available. (IOError will be thrown.)

rw Use this mode for archive zipping/unzipping.
If file does not exist, it will be created.
If file exists and the overwrite option is true, the existing file will be overwritten with an empty archive.
If file exists and the overwrite option is false, the existing contents are preserved. Both adding and extracting will be available.

a Use this mode to add new files to an archive file.
If file does not exist, it will be created.
If file exists, then the previous contents of the archive file are preserved and new files can be added to the archive file. In this mode, getEntries(), getEntryByName(), and extractAll() are not available. (IOError will be thrown.)

Name stored for new entries is constructed from sourceFile according to the stripSourceDirectory and destination options. Names are constructed as follows:

source file destination stripSourceDirectory resulting entry name
documents/subdir/second/justName.ext (empty)

false subdir/second/justName.ext
documents/subdir/second/justName.ext (empty)

true justName.ext
