| API Plans |
| ========= |
| |
| Encryption |
| ---------- |
| * struct zip *zip_open_encrypted(const char *path, int flags, const char *password, int *errorp); |
| * int zip_set_encryption(struct zip *archive, zip_uint64_t idx, zip_uint16_t method, const char *password); |
| * void zip_set_archive_encryption(struct zip *archive, zip_uint16_t method, const char *password); |
| |
| Prefixes |
| -------- |
| For example for adding extractors for self-extracting zip archives. |
| * zip_set_archive_prefix(struct zip *za, const zip_uint8_t *data, zip_uint64_t length); |
| * const zip_uint8_t *zip_get_archive_prefix(struct zip *za, zip_uint64_t *lengthp); |
| |
| API Issues |
| ========== |
| ! D zip_get_archive_comment has int *lenp argument. Cleaner would be zip_uint32_t *. |
| rename and fix. which other functions for naming consistency? |
| ! D rename remaining zip_XXX_{file,archive}_* to zip_{file,archive}_XXX_*? |
| * compression/crypt implementations: how to set error code on failure |
| * compression/crypt error messages a la ZIP_ER_ZLIB (no detailed info passing) |
| * check arguments for every entry point into libzip |
| |
| |
| Features |
| ======== |
| * progress callback for zip_close (called after each file written completely) |
| * function to copy file from one archive to another |
| * do not compress if storing is smaller |
| * set O_CLOEXEC flag after fopen and mkstemp |
| |
| * I/O methods |
| * support streaming output (creating new archive to e.g. stdout) |
| * add functions to: |
| . read/set ASCII file flag? (wiz: more general options?) |
| * zip_commit (to finish changes without closing archive) |
| * add custom compression function support |
| * zip_source_zip: allow rewinding |
| * zip_source_seek, zip_fseek |
| * zipcmp: add option for file content comparison |
| * zipcmp: compare bit flags if paranoid |
| * zipcmp: compare external attributes/opsys if paranoid |
| * zipcmp: compare last_mod if paranoid (or with separate flag?) |
| * consistency |
| . for stored files, test compressed = uncompressed |
| . data descriptor |
| . local headers come before central dir |
| |
| - support for old compression methods????? |
| - append to files (for self-extracting files) |
| |
| |
| Bugs |
| ==== |
| * embed stripped down old zlib for torrentzip |
| ! ensure that nentries is small enough not to cause overflow (size_t for entry, uint64 for CD on disk) |
| * Xcode 32bit build uses 64bit config.h |
| * fix OpenSUSE i686 regression failures |
| * fix open_filename_duplicate_consistency.test to fail |
| * split zip archive torrentzip state from user requested torrentzip state |
| * check for limits imposed by format (central dir size, file size, extra fields, ...) |
| * _zip_u2d_time: handle localtime(3) failure |
| * POSIX: zip_open: check whether file can be created and fail if not |
| * POSIX: fix permissions of new file to match old one |
| * fix inconsistent usage of valid flags (not checked in many places) |
| * cdr == NULL -> ER_NOENT vs. idx > cdir->nentry -> ER_INVAL inconsistent (still there?) |
| * torrentzip broken on NetBSD/amd64 6.99 |
| * torrentzip: check behaviour of files with empty name (size 0; file size > 0) |
| |
| |
| Cleanup |
| ======= |
| * move compat refs from zipint.h to own file, and include that in zipint.h and src |
| * get rid of zip_get_{compression,encryption}_implementation |
| * use zip_*int*_t internally |
| * clean up lint(1) warnings? |
| |
| |
| Test Case Issues |
| ================ |
| * replace Text::Diff with own implementation |
| * use zipcmp -p? |
| * zip_open file less than EOCDLEN bytes long |
| * test calls against old API |
| * run regression tests also from CMake framework |
| * rename file to dir/ and vice versa (fails) |
| * fix comment test to be newline insensitive |
| * zip64 test case ideas (but how to provide comparison and input files?) |
| Create files with: |
| * compressed < 4GB, uncompressed > 4GB |
| * compressed > 4GB |
| * offset of file or central directory > 4GB |
| * check if http://bugs.python.org/issue20078 provides ideas for new tests |
| |
| * (add, replace) |
| add to empty zip |
| add to existing zip |
| add w/ existing file name [E] |
| replace ok |
| replace w/ illegal index [E] |
| replace w/ deleted name [E] |
| unchange added/replaced file |
| * (close) |
| copy zip file |
| open copy |
| rename, delete, replace, add w/ new name, add w/ deleted name |
| close |
| zipcmp copy expected |
| remove copy |
| * (error_get) |
| * (error_get_sys_type) |
| * (error_to_str) |
| * (extra_fields) |

| I/O Methods |
| =========== |
| One major headache for libzip portability (especially to Windows) is |
| I/O, i.e. reading and writing from the file system. Also, there |
| have been requests to open zip archives from a memory buffer. To |
| address these issues, we'll introduce an I/O abstraction layer. |
| |
| We'll reuse zip_source, since it already provides support for |
| the reading part, adding high level abstraction of the additional |
| operations needed. This way, newly written zip_sources can be used |
| both for adding files into an archive as well as for accessing archives |
| themselves. |
| |
| Specifically, we'll add these commands: |
| |
| ZIP_SOURCE_BEGIN_WRITE |
| Prepare for writing. The written data will replace all |
| original data. The file position is reset to 0. (On POSIX |
| systems, this will create a temporary file and open it for |
| writing.) |
| |
| ZIP_SOURCE_WRITE |
| Write bytes of data, a la fwrite(3) (does not need to know |
| anything about the zip archive structure). |
| |
| ZIP_SOURCE_COMMIT_WRITE |
| Used after all data has been written successfully. (On |
| POSIX systems, this will replace the original file with |
| the temporary file, adapting permissions etc.) |
| ZIP_SOURCE_ROLLBACK_WRITE |
| because writing failed) to restore original data if possible; |
| return an errohis will |
| delete the temporary file.) |
| |
| ZIP_SOURCE_SEEK |
| Set position for next read or write, a la fseek(3). |
| |
| ZIP_SOURCE_SUPPORTS |
| Query which commands are supported for this stream. If a |
| file cannot be written to, this will report ZIP_SOURCE_BEGIN_WRITE |
| as not supported, even if the source type would support |
| write. (This is used in zip_open to set global flags like |
| ZIP_AFL_RDONLY.) |
| |
| We'll provide a zip_open variant that takes a zip_source argument |
| used for reading/writing archives. Using an enhanced version of |
| zip_source_buffer, this can be used to read zip archives from memory. |
| |
| zip_open itself will create a source from the file using a |
| port-specific default implementation (POSIX vs. Windows vs. ...). |
| |
| Once the details are finalized, we'll ask for volunteers for writing |
| a Windows specific implementation. |
