PHP Create Zip file

We will make zip yyyymmdd_myfilename.txt as yyyymmdd_myfilename.zip below.

$exportfname = date("Ymd")."_myfilename.txt";

$exportzname = str_replace(".txt", ".zip", $exportfname);

if (file_exists($exportzname)) 

    unlink($exportzname);

$zip = new ZipArchive();

$filename = "./$exportzname";

if ($zip->open($filename, ZIPARCHIVE::CREATE)!==TRUE) 

    die("cannot open $filename\n");

$zip->addFile("./$exportfname","/$exportfname");

$z_n = $zip->numFiles;

$z_s = $zip->status;

$zip->close();

echo "* numfiles: " . $z_n .  "\n";

echo "* status:" . $z_s .  "\n";
