Zip#

The zip module enables dynamic generation of ZIP archives. It supports including files retrieved from proxied servers, along with several modern ZIP format features:

  • large file support;

  • UTC timestamps;

  • UTF-8 encoded filenames.

These capabilities allow clients to resume large archive downloads using Range and If-Range headers, assuming the server has prior knowledge of the files' CRC-32 checksums.

Installation#

To install the module, use one of the following packages:

  • Angie: angie-module-zip;

  • Angie PRO: angie-pro-module-zip.

Loading the Module#

To use the module, it must be loaded in the main{} context:

load_module modules/ngx_http_zip_module.so;
