XF 1.5 Open ZIP/RAR files before download it

[Sadiq6210]

Hello,

I am trying to add a function to open archived attachments (.zip/.rar) in the browser instead of download it.
I have thousands of .rar files and the members cannot open these files from mobiles (at least iPhone mobiles), therefore, I am thinking to add a method to read/open .rar files.

This feature available in dropbox, for example this rar file you can open it in browser:

slides for CENG212 .rar

Shared with Dropbox

www.dropbox.com

Did anybody implemented/discussed this idea before here in Xenforo?
What do you think? is it difficult to be implemented? What I will need?

Exactly!
Is it a builtin feature in XF2? Can be implemented in RM files as well?

This will be included in the next version of EAS2. This is for all attachments loaded via the XF Attachment System.

A link in the RM is also possible.

I have some questions, I will write it in the addon discussion thread

Thanks
