Zap

Compress and/or encrypt folders fast. Like, really fast. or as some say... blazingly fast.

Installation

To install Zap, run the following command from the project root: cargo install --path .

Usage

In order to compress a folder with Zap, run:

zap archive [INPUT] [OUTPUT]

Where the [OUTPUT] is the path to which you want to store the .zap file. Eg:

zap archive /path/to/dir ./dir.zap -ce

Using zap archive --help will list the available options for encryption and compression.

In order to decompress a Zap archive

zap extract [ARCHIVE] [OUTPUT]

Where the [ARCHIVE] is the path to the file which you want to extract and the [OUTPUT] is the folder in which you want the contents to be placed inside.

Using zap archive --help will list the available options for encryption and compression.

zap extract ./dir.zap ./dir -ce

Unfortunately, in it's current state, that compression and encryption methods aren't stored in metadata and must be given when extracting. this will be fixed in coming releases.

In order to list the contents of a Zap archive

zap list [ARCHIVE]

coming soon
