Zip-File example

This example highlights how to use the IFileSystem to compress and uncompress directories using System.IO.Compression.

The ZipFileHelper class provides two methods:

• Stream CreateZipFromDirectory(string directory)
  Creates a zip file from all files and sub-directories in the given directory. It returns a stream, which can be stored in the file system:

      using (Stream zipStream = ZipFileHelper.CreateZipFromDirectory(directory))
      {
          using FileSystemStream fileStream = FileSystem.File.Create("test.zip");
          zipStream.CopyTo(fileStream);
      }

• void ExtractZipToDirectory(Stream stream, string directory)
  Extracts the zip file from the stream to the given directory.

      ZipFileHelper.ExtractZipToDirectory(
          FileSystem.File.OpenRead("test.zip"), directory);
