JavaScript Requires Chilkat v11.0.0+

Create Password Protected Zip containing a Single File.

Create a password-protected .zip containing a single file. (This uses the older Zip 2.0 encryption scheme, which is weaker and not as secure as AES encryption, which Chilkat Zip also supports.) JavaScript

var success = false;

//  This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
//  See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

var zip = new CkZip();

success = zip.NewZip("test.zip");
if (success == false) {
    console.log(zip.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

zip.SetPassword("secret");
zip.PasswordProtect = true;

var saveExtraPath;
saveExtraPath = false;
success = zip.AddFile("/temp/hamlet.xml",saveExtraPath);

success = zip.WriteZipAndClose();
if (success == false) {
    console.log(zip.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

console.log("Zip Created!");
