Maybe ZipFileSystem or Archive::Tar::Minitar.

Hello all,
I got a method for uploading a zipped file and extract its folder and save in a directory.

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

  Zip::ZipFile.open(file_path) { |zip_file|

     zip_file.each { |f|

     f_path=File.join("destination_path", f.name)

     FileUtils.mkdir_p(File.dirname(f_path))

     zip_file.extract(f, f_path) unless File.exist?(f_path)

   }

  }

Hope it helps.Thanks
