Thread: Download folder messages as zip/tar plugin

no one?

i was thinking of adding this to my zip download plugin (which allows the download of all message attachments in 1 zip file) but tbh i didnt think there was any demand for it

edit: these features are now part of the zipdownload plugin, they are only available in the git repo version atm

Hello,

My users also tell me they need to download multiple messages for backup (or entire folder/folders) into one .zip archive file.
Is there any plugin to achieve this(or any other way)?
Thank you.

yea... please read the previous post...

Hi,

I downloaded your lastest zipdownload plugin from http://github.com/JohnDoh/RoundCube-...p-Download.git but it does't work as I expected. When I try to open a file downloaded from an attachment, MetaData of that file is corrupted. (message error is: Loading meta information failed). Previous version of zipdownload plugin has no problems with file's metadata. I've seen that in this latest version of zipdownload.php you remove code "TNEF encoded attachment part".
How can I fix this?
Thank you.

are you using RC 0.4 stable?

I'm using RC Version 0.4-20100807

could you send me an example of such a message which doesnt download right and i'll take a look. i need the complete message please.

Meanwhile I studied what is the difference between the same file downloaded with the two versions of zipdownload. Files downloaded with the new plugin is bigger with 2bytes than the ones downloaded with the older plugin. These bytes are inserted to the beginning of the file and are (in hexa): "20 0A". If I manually delete these bytes the file can be viewed just fine by any viewer that support that type of file.
Maybe somewhere in the source code of the new plugin (or in other place of RC) is inserted a "space character + new line".
I also tried to download all attachments in a .zip file and could not unzip that archive. The error displayed by my unzip utility is something like that:

Archive: file.zip
End-of-central-directory signature not found. Either this file is not
a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive. In the
latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on
the last disk(s) of this archive.
unzip: cannot find zipfile directory in one of file.zip or
file.zip.zip, and cannot find file.zip.ZIP, period.

When I displayed the content of the file.zip in hexa, the same 2bytes are beeing inserted in the beginning of the file.zip and maybe before each file in the archive.
Maybe the archive file.zip is bigger with (2 bytes * nr_of_files_in_the archive) than it should be.
