FTP AND ZIP WITH PHP

You can easily download a file from ftp and archive it using php.
Here is an example for you :

3. 
   
4. $host = "your ftp host";
   
5. $user = "your ftp username";
6. $pass = "your ftp password";
   
7. if (class_exists("ZipArchive"))
8. {
9.     $ftp = ftp_connect($host);
10.     ftp_login($ftp,$user,$pass);
11.    $zip = new ZipArchive;
12.    if ($zip->open("test.zip") === true)
13.    {
14.         ftp_get($ftp,"eshan.php","index.php",FTP_ASCII);
15.         $zip->addFile("eshan.php","eshan.php");
16.         $zip->close();
17.         unlink("eshan.php");
18.         echo "ok";
    
19.    }
20.    else {echo "ERROR";}
    
21. }
22. else {echo "Very sad";}
    
23. ?>

First we have connected with ftp server and by using ftp_get() function we have downloaded file.

By using addFile() method of ZipArchive class we have added downloaded file.

After that we have deleted downloaded file using unlink() function.
