This plugin allows you to extract a zip file

Adding the Plugin to your project

To install the plugin, copy ZipPlugin.js to your project's www folder and include a reference to it in your html files.

<script type="text/javascript" src="ZipPlugin.js"></script>

Add SSZipArchive directory, ExtractZipFilePlugin.h and ExtractZipFilePlugin.m to the Plugins directory of your phonegap project.

In the Cordova.plist section, you need to add the plugin with the key/pair value of:

Using the plugin

<script type="text/javascript">
    function extractFile(fileName, destination)
    {
        window.plugins.extractZipFile.extractFile(fileName,destination,win,fail);
    }

    function win(status) 
    {
        alert('Success'+status);
    }

    function fail(error) 
    { 
        alert(error);
    }
</script>
