# Migration Guide

## v8.x to v9.0

### What's Changed

v9.0 hardens the native implementations and aligns progress reporting across platforms. The **JavaScript API is unchanged** — all breaking changes are in native behavior that existing code may observe.

### Breaking Changes

| | v8.x | v9.0 |
|---|---|---|
| `unzip` progress (Android) | Byte-level, within-file granularity | Byte-weighted, per-entry granularity |
| `unzip` progress (iOS) | Effectively start/end events only | Byte-weighted, per-entry granularity |
| `unzip` event `filePath` (iOS) | Full destination path | Zip entry name (e.g. `folder/file.txt`) |
| `zip` progress with files array (iOS) | Only 0% and 100% events | Per-file progress events |
| Concurrent operations (Android) | Ran in parallel | Serialized on a single worker thread |
| Malicious/traversal zip entries (Android) | Extracted outside destination | Rejected (Zip Slip protection) |

### Migration Steps

#### Step 1: Check your progress-event handling

If you subscribe to `zipArchiveProgressEvent`:

- **Don't parse `filePath` on iOS** expecting a filesystem path for `unzip` operations — it is now the archive entry name. On Android it remains the source zip path.
- **Don't assume the final 100% event arrives before the promise resolves.** On Android, events are now posted to the main thread and the last event may land after `.then()` runs. Gate completion logic on the promise, not the event.
- Progress is byte-weighted per entry for `unzip`: with archives containing one very large file, expect the bar to jump rather than advance smoothly within that file.

#### Step 2: Check concurrent usage (Android)

If you kick off multiple zip/unzip operations simultaneously, they now execute one at a time in call order. Await them sequentially, or expect later calls to take longer.

#### Step 3: Rebuild

```bash
npm install react-native-zip-archive@^9.0.0
cd ios && pod install && cd ..
```

## v7.x to v8.0

### What's Changed

v8.0 migrates `react-native-zip-archive` from Legacy Native Modules to **TurboModules** (React Native New Architecture). This brings:
- Better performance through lazy loading
- Type safety via Codegen
- Support for React 18 concurrent features

### Breaking Changes

| | v7.x | v8.0 |
|---|---|---|
| React Native | >= 0.60.0 | >= 0.70.0 |
| React | >= 16.8.6 | >= 18.0.0 |
| Android API | >= 21 | >= 23 |
| Architecture | Legacy | New Architecture (TurboModules) |

**JavaScript API is unchanged.** No code changes needed in your app other than enabling New Architecture.

### Migration Steps

#### Step 1: Check Your React Native Version

```bash
npx react-native --version
```

If you're on React Native < 0.70, you must either:
- **Upgrade React Native** to 0.70+ (recommended)
- **Stay on v7.x** of this library

#### Step 2: Enable New Architecture

Follow the [official React Native guide](https://reactnative.dev/docs/new-architecture-intro).

**Android**: In `android/gradle.properties`:
```properties
newArchEnabled=true
```

**iOS**: Reinstall pods with New Architecture enabled:
```bash
cd ios
RCT_NEW_ARCH_ENABLED=1 pod install
```

#### Step 3: Update the Library

```bash
npm install react-native-zip-archive@latest
```

#### Step 4: Clean and Rebuild

**iOS:**
```bash
cd ios
rm -rf Pods Podfile.lock build
pod install
cd ..
```

**Android:**
```bash
cd android
./gradlew clean
cd ..
npx react-native start --reset-cache
```

#### Step 5: Verify

Run your app and test zip/unzip operations.

### Rollback to v7.x

If you encounter issues:

```bash
npm install react-native-zip-archive@^7.0.0
```

### Troubleshooting

| Issue | Solution |
|-------|----------|
| "Native module not found" | Ensure New Architecture is enabled in your app |
| Build fails on iOS | Delete `ios/Pods` and `ios/Podfile.lock`, then `pod install` |
| Build fails on Android | Run `./gradlew clean` and clear Metro cache |
| Works on Android but not iOS | Ensure you ran `RCT_NEW_ARCH_ENABLED=1 pod install` |
| Expo Go shows "Native module not found" | Use Expo Development Build instead |
