ZIP: Include parent directory (PHP)

Question

I need some help, I have code for zipping a folder, my problem is it does not include the target or parent folder in a zip file.

  Test
    -- 1
    -- 2

only 1 and 2 is in the zip file, I want to include the Test directory.

This is my code

$source='/testing';
$destination='/test';

$img_dir = array("1", "2");
$arrlength = count($img_dir);


   foreach ($img_dir as $k => $v) {
    zipData($destination.'/'.$v, $destination.'/img_'.$v.'.zip');
}

function zipData($source, $destination) {
    if (extension_loaded('zip')) {
        if (file_exists($source)) {
            $zip = new ZipArchive();
            if ($zip->open($destination, ZIPARCHIVE::CREATE)) {
                $source = realpath($source);
                if (is_dir($source)) {
                    $files = new RecursiveIteratorIterator(new RecursiveDirectoryIterator($source), RecursiveIteratorIterator::SELF_FIRST);
                    foreach ($files as $file) {
                        $file = realpath($file);
                        if (is_dir($file)) {
                            $zip->addEmptyDir(str_replace($source . '/', '', $file . '/'));
                        } else if (is_file($file)) {
                            $zip->addFromString(str_replace($source . '/', '', $file), file_get_contents($file));
                        }
                    }
                } else if (is_file($source)) {
                    $zip->addFromString(basename($source), file_get_contents($source));
                }
            }
            return $zip->close();
        }
    }
    return false;
}

The best way to add whole directory tree to an archive is to use recursion.

You have a nice example in PHP manual, which is actually exactly what you're trying to write yourself: http://php.net/manual/en/class.ziparchive.php. You should always check the manual first.

It's in the first user comment:

Zip a folder (include itself). 
Usage: 
  HZip::zipDir('/path/to/sourceDir', '/path/to/out.zip'); 

<?php 
class HZip 
{ 
  /** 
   * Add files and sub-directories in a folder to zip file. 
   * @param string $folder 
   * @param ZipArchive $zipFile 
   * @param int $exclusiveLength Number of text to be exclusived from the file path. 
   */ 
  private static function folderToZip($folder, &$zipFile, $exclusiveLength) { 
    $handle = opendir($folder); 
    while (false !== $f = readdir($handle)) { 
      if ($f != '.' && $f != '..') { 
        $filePath = "$folder/$f"; 
        // Remove prefix from file path before add to zip. 
        $localPath = substr($filePath, $exclusiveLength); 
        if (is_file($filePath)) { 
          $zipFile->addFile($filePath, $localPath); 
        } elseif (is_dir($filePath)) { 
          // Add sub-directory. 
          $zipFile->addEmptyDir($localPath); 
          self::folderToZip($filePath, $zipFile, $exclusiveLength); 
        } 
      } 
    } 
    closedir($handle); 
  } 

  /**

   *

   */ 
  public static function zipDir($sourcePath, $outZipPath) 
  { 
    $pathInfo = pathInfo($sourcePath); 
    $parentPath = $pathInfo['dirname']; 
    $dirName = $pathInfo['basename']; 

    $z = new ZipArchive(); 
    $z->open($outZipPath, ZIPARCHIVE::CREATE); 
    $z->addEmptyDir($dirName); 
    self::folderToZip($sourcePath, $z, strlen("$parentPath/")); 
    $z->close();
