* Reads zip64 files as produced by the zipfile module * Include tests (somewhat slow, however, because of the need to create "large" zips) * About the same amount of strictness reading invalid zip files as zipfile has * Still works on files with prepended data (like pex) There are a lot more test cases at https://github.com/thatch/zipimport64/ that give me confidence that this works for real-world files. Fixes #89739 and #77140. --------- Co-authored-by: Itamar Ostricher <itamarost@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Gregory P. Smith <greg@krypto.org>

:mod:`zipimport` --- Import modules from Zip archives
|
|
=====================================================
|
|
|
|
.. module:: zipimport
|
|
:synopsis: Support for importing Python modules from ZIP archives.
|
|
|
|
.. moduleauthor:: Just van Rossum <just@letterror.com>
|
|
|
|
**Source code:** :source:`Lib/zipimport.py`
|
|
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
This module adds the ability to import Python modules (:file:`\*.py`,
|
|
:file:`\*.pyc`) and packages from ZIP-format archives. It is usually not
|
|
needed to use the :mod:`zipimport` module explicitly; it is automatically used
|
|
by the built-in :keyword:`import` mechanism for :data:`sys.path` items that are paths
|
|
to ZIP archives.
|
|
|
|
Typically, :data:`sys.path` is a list of directory names as strings. This module
|
|
also allows an item of :data:`sys.path` to be a string naming a ZIP file archive.
|
|
The ZIP archive can contain a subdirectory structure to support package imports,
|
|
and a path within the archive can be specified to only import from a
|
|
subdirectory. For example, the path :file:`example.zip/lib/` would only
|
|
import from the :file:`lib/` subdirectory within the archive.
|
|
|
|
Any files may be present in the ZIP archive, but importers are only invoked for
|
|
:file:`.py` and :file:`.pyc` files. ZIP import of dynamic modules
|
|
(:file:`.pyd`, :file:`.so`) is disallowed. Note that if an archive only contains
|
|
:file:`.py` files, Python will not attempt to modify the archive by adding the
|
|
corresponding :file:`.pyc` file, meaning that if a ZIP archive
|
|
doesn't contain :file:`.pyc` files, importing may be rather slow.
|
|

.. versionchanged:: 3.13
|

ZIP64 is supported

|
|
|
.. versionchanged:: 3.8
|
|
Previously, ZIP archives with an archive comment were not supported.

:pep:`273` - Import Modules from Zip Archives
|
|
Written by James C. Ahlstrom, who also provided an implementation. Python 2.3
|
|
follows the specification in :pep:`273`, but uses an implementation written by Just
|
|
van Rossum that uses the import hooks described in :pep:`302`.

:mod:`importlib` - The implementation of the import machinery
|
|
Package providing the relevant protocols for all importers to
|
|
implement.
|
|

|
|
|
This module defines an exception:
|
|
|
|
.. exception:: ZipImportError
|
|
|
|
Exception raised by zipimporter objects. It's a subclass of :exc:`ImportError`,
|
|
so it can be caught as :exc:`ImportError`, too.

zipimporter Objects
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
:class:`zipimporter` is the class for importing ZIP files.
|
|
|
|
.. class:: zipimporter(archivepath)
|
|
|
|
Create a new zipimporter instance. *archivepath* must be a path to a ZIP
|
|
file, or to a specific path within a ZIP file. For example, an *archivepath*
|
|
of :file:`foo/bar.zip/lib` will look for modules in the :file:`lib` directory
|
|
inside the ZIP file :file:`foo/bar.zip` (provided that it exists).
|
|
|
|
:exc:`ZipImportError` is raised if *archivepath* doesn't point to a valid ZIP
|
|
archive.
|
|
|
|
.. versionchanged:: 3.12
|
|
|
|
Methods ``find_loader()`` and ``find_module()``, deprecated in 3.10 are
|
|
now removed. Use :meth:`find_spec` instead.
|
|
|
|
.. method:: create_module(spec)
|
|
|
|
Implementation of :meth:`importlib.abc.Loader.create_module` that returns
|
|
:const:`None` to explicitly request the default semantics.
|
|
|
|
.. versionadded:: 3.10
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. method:: exec_module(module)
|
|
|
|
Implementation of :meth:`importlib.abc.Loader.exec_module`.
|
|
|
|
.. versionadded:: 3.10
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. method:: find_spec(fullname, target=None)
|
|
|
|
An implementation of :meth:`importlib.abc.PathEntryFinder.find_spec`.
|
|
|
|
.. versionadded:: 3.10
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. method:: get_code(fullname)
|
|
|
|
Return the code object for the specified module. Raise
|
|
:exc:`ZipImportError` if the module couldn't be imported.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. method:: get_data(pathname)
|
|
|
|
Return the data associated with *pathname*. Raise :exc:`OSError` if the
|
|
file wasn't found.
|
|
|
|
.. versionchanged:: 3.3
|
|
:exc:`IOError` used to be raised, it is now an alias of :exc:`OSError`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. method:: get_filename(fullname)
|
|
|
|
Return the value ``__file__`` would be set to if the specified module
|
|
was imported. Raise :exc:`ZipImportError` if the module couldn't be
|
|
imported.
|
|
|
|
.. versionadded:: 3.1
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. method:: get_source(fullname)
|
|
|
|
Return the source code for the specified module. Raise
|
|
:exc:`ZipImportError` if the module couldn't be found, return
|
|
:const:`None` if the archive does contain the module, but has no source
|
|
for it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. method:: is_package(fullname)
|
|
|
|
Return ``True`` if the module specified by *fullname* is a package. Raise
|
|
:exc:`ZipImportError` if the module couldn't be found.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. method:: load_module(fullname)
|
|
|
|
Load the module specified by *fullname*. *fullname* must be the fully
|
|
qualified (dotted) module name. Returns the imported module on success,
|
|
raises :exc:`ZipImportError` on failure.
|
|
|
|
.. deprecated:: 3.10
|
|
|
|
Use :meth:`exec_module` instead.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. method:: invalidate_caches()
|
|
|
|
Clear out the internal cache of information about files found within
|
|
the ZIP archive.
|
|
|
|
.. versionadded:: 3.10
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. attribute:: archive
|
|
|
|
The file name of the importer's associated ZIP file, without a possible
|
|
subpath.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. attribute:: prefix
|
|
|
|
The subpath within the ZIP file where modules are searched. This is the
|
|
empty string for zipimporter objects which point to the root of the ZIP
|
|
file.
|
|
|
|
The :attr:`archive` and :attr:`prefix` attributes, when combined with a
|
|
slash, equal the original *archivepath* argument given to the
|
|
:class:`zipimporter` constructor.
