Ruby zip a folder - rubyzip

ruby_zip_demo.rb

require 'zip'

input_directory = '' # directory to be zipped
zipfile_name = '' # zip-file name

# zip a folder with only files (NO SUB FOLDERS)
Zip::File.open(zipfile_name, Zip::File::CREATE) do |zipfile|
  Dir[File.join(input_directory, '*')].each do |file|
    zipfile.add(file.sub(input_directory, ''), file)
  end
end

# zip a folder with files and subfolders
Zip::File.open(zipfile_name, Zip::File::CREATE) do |zipfile|
   Dir["#{input_directory}/**/**"].each do |file|
     zipfile.add(file.sub(input_directory + '/', ''), file)
   end
end

Hi,
This script creates empty zip file in my case? Is there any updates on this?

did you set your directory path to input_directory ?

Found the issue, thanks:)

Found the issue, thanks:)

Hi @romanbaitaliuk , I have the same issue, please can you let me know what was the issue?
Many thank for your help

Thanks for this!

In my case, there were some issues with the filenames beginning with "/". Here's what I did to resolve it (adding files only - no sub dirs):

    Zip::File.open(zipfile_name, Zip::File::CREATE) do |zipfile|
      Dir[File.join(input_directory, '*')].each do |file|
        # add(dst_filename, source_file)
        zipfile.add(File.basename(file), file)
      end
    end
