Compress folders/files and create .tar.gz (Tar archive with GunZip Compression) and .zip (ZIP compression) file in Java

Hi friends,

Today I will explain how easily we can compress files and folders in java.

I have used a third part library which so simple to use.

Download the .jar from the following URL
https://rauschig.org/jarchivelib/download.html

Now, create a java class and create .tar.gz and .zip files.

Sample source code

package gunziptest;

import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.logging.Level;
import java.util.logging.Logger;
import org.rauschig.jarchivelib.ArchiveFormat;
import org.rauschig.jarchivelib.Archiver;
import org.rauschig.jarchivelib.ArchiverFactory;
import org.rauschig.jarchivelib.CompressionType;

/**
 *
 * @author psrdotcom
 */
public class GunZipTest {

    /**
     * @param args the command line arguments
     */
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // Archive file name
        String archiveName = "archive";
        // test is destination folder
        File destination = new File("test");
        // source folder has files and sub-folders
        File archive = null;
        
        // zip compression
        Archiver archiver = ArchiverFactory.createArchiver(ArchiveFormat.ZIP);
        try {
            archive = archiver.create(archiveName, destination, source);
            if(archive != null && archive.isFile()) {
                System.out.println("gunziptest.GunZipTest.main()" + "zip file created");
            }
        } catch (IOException ex) {
            Logger.getLogger(GunZipTest.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
        }

        // tar.gz compression
        archiver = ArchiverFactory.createArchiver(ArchiveFormat.TAR, CompressionType.GZIP);
        try {
            archive = archiver.create(archiveName, destination, source);
            if(archive != null && archive.isFile()) {
                System.out.println("gunziptest.GunZipTest.main()" + "zip file created");
            }
        } catch (IOException ex) {
            Logger.getLogger(GunZipTest.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
        }
    }
}

Hope, you will find this useful.

I have found a solution to update EOL for all files in the current directory.

5. Download the customized batch file from GIST https://gist.github.com/psrdotcom/d73ff9590c3010253b5b2a886704b26b
6. Extract if needed, and place the "dos2unixfolder.bat" in the same directory where the "dos2unix" is placed.
7. Tip: If you place the batch file in the same folder of dos2unix.exe. You no need to add again the patch of batch file in environment PATH.
8. Navigate to your folder, where you want all the files EOL to be changed
9. Press "Right Click on Mouse" in empty area
10. 
11. Select "Open Command Prompt Here"
