If a streamed Zip file with multiple members is what you need then Archive::Zip::SimpleZip is probably the best way to go.

I see in your code you've used '-' to force streaming. You can explicitly request streaming to a file/buffer by specifying the Stream option, as shown below. If writing to STDOUT is what you need, then you don't need to explicitly set it. 

## Explicitly ask for Stream is set to 1
my $z = new Archive::Zip::SimpleZip "somefile.zip, Stream => 1 
  or print STDERR "Cannot create zip file: $SimpleZipError\n";

FYI - I wrote Archive::Zip::SimpleZip because the interface I provided in IO::Compress::Zip to create a Zip file with multiple members is not the easiest to use. Archive::Zip::SimpleZip is just a wrapper around IO::Compress::Zip to make this use-case as easy as possible.
