Since 2015 MATLAB has supported the ability to distribute a Toolbox with all the files, documentation and settings packaged up in a single file with extension .mltbx. Installation is now super easy, double click the file from the builtin file browser, or go to the Add-On Manager.
The file itself is a zip file, but with a different extension
% unzip RTB.mltbx
Within it you will find one file and three folders:
- [Content_Types].xml
- _rels/ contains a single file called .rels
- fsroot/ holds all the files within your toolbox and preserves the folder structure
- metadata/ holds a number of .xml file with configuration information:
- addonProperties.xml
- applications.xml
- configuration.xml list of paths
- coreProperties.xml
- examples.xml
- filesystemManifest.xml
- mwcoreProperties.xml
- mwcorePropertiesExtension.xml
- systemRequirements.xml
