|
The ZIP file format is a common archive and compression standard.
|
|
This module provides tools to create, read, write, append, and list a
|
|
ZIP file. Any advanced use of this module will require an
|
|
understanding of the format, as defined in
|
|
\citetitle[http://www.pkware.com/appnote.html]{PKZIP Application
|
|
Note}.
|
|
|
|
This module does not currently handle ZIP files which have appended
|
|
comments, or multi-disk ZIP files.
|
|
|
|
The available attributes of this module are:
|
|
|
|
\begin{excdesc}{error}
|
|
The error raised for bad ZIP files.
|
|
\end{excdesc}
|
|
|
|
\begin{classdesc*}{ZipFile}
|
|
The class for reading and writing ZIP files. See
|
|
``\citetitle{ZipFile Objects}'' (section \ref{zipfile-objects}) for
|
|
constructor details.
|
|
\end{classdesc*}
|
|
|
|
\begin{classdesc*}{PyZipFile}
|
|
Class for creating ZIP archives containing Python libraries.
|
|
\end{classdesc*}
|
|
|
|
\begin{classdesc}{ZipInfo}{\optional{filename\optional{, date_time}}}
|
|
Class used the represent infomation about a member of an archive.
|
|
Instances of this class are returned by the \method{getinfo()} and
|
|
\method{infolist()} methods of \class{ZipFile} objects. Most users
|
|
of the \module{zipfile} module will not need to create these, but
|
|
only use those created by this module.
|
|
\var{filename} should be the full name of the archive member, and
|
|
\var{date_time} should be a tuple containing six fields which
|
|
describe the time of the last modification to the file; the fields
|
|
are described in section \ref{zipinfo-objects}, ``ZipInfo Objects.''
|
|
\end{classdesc}
|
|
|
|
\begin{funcdesc}{is_zipfile}{filename}
|
|
Returns \code{True} if \var{filename} is a valid ZIP file based on its magic
|
|
number, otherwise returns \code{False}. This module does not currently
|
|
handle ZIP files which have appended comments.
|
|
\end{funcdesc}
|
|
|
|
\begin{datadesc}{ZIP_STORED}
|
|
The numeric constant for an uncompressed archive member.
|
|
\end{datadesc}
|
|
|
|
\begin{datadesc}{ZIP_DEFLATED}
|
|
The numeric constant for the usual ZIP compression method. This
|
|
requires the zlib module. No other compression methods are
|
|
currently supported.
|
|
\end{datadesc}

\subsection{ZipFile Objects \label{zipfile-objects}}
|
|
|
|
\begin{classdesc}{ZipFile}{file\optional{, mode\optional{, compression}}}
|
|
Open a ZIP file, where \var{file} can be either a path to a file
|
|
(a string) or a file-like object. The \var{mode} parameter
|
|
should be \code{'r'} to read an existing file, \code{'w'} to
|
|
truncate and write a new file, or \code{'a'} to append to an
|
|
existing file. For \var{mode} is \code{'a'} and \var{file}
|
|
refers to an existing ZIP file, then additional files are added to
|
|
it. If \var{file} does not refer to a ZIP file, then a new ZIP
|
|
archive is appended to the file. This is meant for adding a ZIP
|
|
archive to another file, such as \file{python.exe}. Using
|
|
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
cat myzip.zip >> python.exe
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
|
|
also works, and at least \program{WinZip} can read such files.
|
|
\var{compression} is the ZIP compression method to use when writing
|
|
the archive, and should be \constant{ZIP_STORED} or
|
|
\constant{ZIP_DEFLATED}; unrecognized values will cause
|
|
\exception{RuntimeError} to be raised. If \constant{ZIP_DEFLATED}
|
|
is specified but the \refmodule{zlib} module is not available,
|
|
\exception{RuntimeError} is also raised. The default is
|
|
\constant{ZIP_STORED}.
|
|
\end{classdesc}
|
|
|
|
\begin{methoddesc}{close}{}
|
|
Close the archive file. You must call \method{close()} before
|
|
exiting your program or essential records will not be written.
|
|
\end{methoddesc}
|
|
|
|
\begin{methoddesc}{getinfo}{name}
|
|
Return a \class{ZipInfo} object with information about the archive
|
|
member \var{name}.
|
|
\end{methoddesc}
|
|
|
|
\begin{methoddesc}{infolist}{}
|
|
Return a list containing a \class{ZipInfo} object for each member of
|
|
the archive. The objects are in the same order as their entries in
|
|
the actual ZIP file on disk if an existing archive was opened.
|
|
\end{methoddesc}
|
|
|
|
\begin{methoddesc}{namelist}{}
|
|
Return a list of archive members by name.
|
|
\end{methoddesc}
|
|
|
|
\begin{methoddesc}{printdir}{}
|
|
Print a table of contents for the archive to \code{sys.stdout}.
|
|
\end{methoddesc}
|
|
|
|
\begin{methoddesc}{read}{name}
|
|
Return the bytes of the file in the archive. The archive must be
|
|
open for read or append.
|
|
\end{methoddesc}
|
|
|
|
\begin{methoddesc}{testzip}{}
|
|
Read all the files in the archive and check their CRC's. Return the
|
|
name of the first bad file, or else return \code{None}.
|
|
\end{methoddesc}
|
|
|
|
\begin{methoddesc}{write}{filename\optional{, arcname\optional{,
|
|
compress_type}}}
|
|
Write the file named \var{filename} to the archive, giving it the
|
|
archive name \var{arcname} (by default, this will be the same as
|
|
\var{filename}). If given, \var{compress_type} overrides the value
|
|
given for the \var{compression} parameter to the constructor for
|
|
the new entry. The archive must be open with mode \code{'w'} or
|
|
\code{'a'}.
|
|
\end{methoddesc}
|
|
|
|
\begin{methoddesc}{writestr}{zinfo, bytes}
|
|
Write the string \var{bytes} to the archive; meta-information is
|
|
given as the \class{ZipInfo} instance \var{zinfo}. At least the
|
|
filename, date, and time must be given by \var{zinfo}. The archive
|
|
must be opened with mode \code{'w'} or \code{'a'}.
|
|
\end{methoddesc}
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following data attribute is also available:
|
|
|
|
\begin{memberdesc}{debug}
|
|
The level of debug output to use. This may be set from \code{0}
|
|
(the default, no output) to \code{3} (the most output). Debugging
|
|
information is written to \code{sys.stdout}.
|
|
\end{memberdesc}
|
|
|
|
|
|
\subsection{PyZipFile Objects \label{pyzipfile-objects}}
|
|
|
|
The \class{PyZipFile} constructor takes the same parameters as the
|
|
\class{ZipFile} constructor. Instances have one method in addition to
|
|
those of \class{ZipFile} objects.
|
|
|
|
\begin{methoddesc}[PyZipFile]{writepy}{pathname\optional{, basename}}
|
|
Search for files \file{*.py} and add the corresponding file to the
|
|
archive. The corresponding file is a \file{*.pyo} file if
|
|
available, else a \file{*.pyc} file, compiling if necessary. If the
|
|
pathname is a file, the filename must end with \file{.py}, and just
|
|
the (corresponding \file{*.py[co]}) file is added at the top level
|
|
(no path information). If it is a directory, and the directory is
|
|
not a package directory, then all the files \file{*.py[co]} are
|
|
added at the top level. If the directory is a package directory,
|
|
then all \file{*.py[oc]} are added under the package name as a file
|
|
path, and if any subdirectories are package directories, all of
|
|
these are added recursively. \var{basename} is intended for
|
|
internal use only. The \method{writepy()} method makes archives
|
|
with file names like this:
|
|
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
string.pyc # Top level name
|
|
test/__init__.pyc # Package directory
|
|
test/testall.pyc # Module test.testall
|
|
test/bogus/__init__.pyc # Subpackage directory
|
|
test/bogus/myfile.pyc # Submodule test.bogus.myfile
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\end{methoddesc}
|
|
|
|
|
|
\subsection{ZipInfo Objects \label{zipinfo-objects}}
|
|
|
|
Instances of the \class{ZipInfo} class are returned by the
|
|
\method{getinfo()} and \method{infolist()} methods of
|
|
\class{ZipFile} objects. Each object stores information about a
|
|
single member of the ZIP archive.
|
|
|
|
Instances have the following attributes:
|
|
|
|
\begin{memberdesc}[ZipInfo]{filename}
|
|
Name of the file in the archive.
|
|
\end{memberdesc}
|
|
|
|
\begin{memberdesc}[ZipInfo]{date_time}
|
|

|
|
member. This is a tuple of six values:
|
|
|
|
\begin{tableii}{c|l}{code}{Index}{Value}
|
|
\lineii{0}{Year}
|
|
\lineii{1}{Month (one-based)}
|
|
\lineii{2}{Day of month (one-based)}
