$archive = new Lib\BackerArchive(
    "/PATH/TO/KICKSTARTER/EXPORTED/DATA/HERE.zip"
);

foreach($archive->rewards() as $r){
    do{
        $record = $r->records()->current();

        // ... do stuff with $record ...

        $r->records()->next();
    } while($r->records()->valid());
}

$archive->close();

Running the Test Suite
