Encoding files with password

Open fralways opened this issue 5 years ago • 14 comments

Hello,

Is it possible to create an encoded archive with password? I cannot find the way to do it. If not, maybe consider implementing this functionality since it's very important for projects which require extra security when sending data (I'm trying to zip couple of files, secure it with password and then send it via network).

Thank you in advance.

It currently can't encode zips with a password. Certainly would be good to add but I'm not sure when I would be able to get to it.

It would be great to add that support :/

For those who need this feature, I have one suggestion: secure the zip file with AES using the encrypt package. What do you think about creating a .zip.aes file with this, I think it would have a similar effect to putting a password on the zip file. Please let me know what you think.

@SungHyun22 Thank you for sharing.

Can you zip with password with the package?
