In order to use these functions PHP must be compiled with ZIP support by using the --with-zip configure option.
Prior to PHP 7.4.0, libzip was bundled with PHP, and to compile the extension one needed to use the --enable-zip configure option. Building against the bundled libzip was discouraged as of PHP 7.3.0, but still possible by using the --without-libzip configure option.
A --with-libzip=DIR configure option has been added to use a system libzip installation. libzip version 0.11 is required, with 0.11.2 or later recommended.
As of PHP 8.2.0, php_zip.dll DLL must be enabled in php.ini. Previously, this extension was built-in.
Information for installing this PECL extension may be found in the manual chapter titled Installation of PECL extensions. Additional information such as new releases, downloads, source files, maintainer information, and a CHANGELOG, can be located here: » https://pecl.php.net/package/zip.
Getting error
configure: error: Please reinstall the libzip distribution
when compiling this extension for php 7.3?
You need to install the 'libzip' package.
In Dockerfile you would do this like:
# Install zip
RUN apt-get update && \
apt-get install -y \
libzip-dev \
&& docker-php-ext-install zipSOLVET "No package 'libzip' found":
$ export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PKG_CONFIG_PATH:/usr/local/lib64/pkgconfig/
$ ./configure \
...
--with-zip \
...
Configuration OK
$ make && make installNo package 'libzip' found

checking for zip archive read/write support... yes
checking for libzip >= 0.11... no
configure: error: Package requirements (libzip >= 0.11) were not met:
No package 'libzip' found
Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.
Alternatively, you may set the environment variables LIBZIP_CFLAGS
and LIBZIP_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.
