Native zip/unzip in Nextcloud Files

[devnull4242]

I have searched Nextcloud issues. But i only found closed issues and not workling apps in the Nextcloud store.

No native zip/unzip in Nextcloud Files
Other file management systems have got native zip/unzip. In Nextcloud you can instlal e.g. Archive Manager (not the right function), Zipper (only zip not unzip) or Extract (outdated).

Native zip/unzip in Nextcloud Files
It would be cool to insert native zip/unzip in Nextcloud Files. I think it is easy because of php-function for zip/unzip. Also the other apps are not needed anymore. Because for download the zip function is already in Nextcloud files included.

Alternative
Old other not working apps, upload and download single files.

configuration
Maybe because of security it would be nice to activate/deactivate zip/unzip in config.php.

Also nextcloud/files_zip#32 is an open enhancement Issue for adding extraction.

The Zipper app has the advantage of handling things in the background so it's a cleaner user experience for large archives.
