Georg Brandl | 116aa62 | 2007-08-15 14:28:22 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 13 | The ZIP file format is a common archive and compression standard. This module |
| 14 | provides tools to create, read, write, append, and list a ZIP file. Any |
| 15 | advanced use of this module will require an understanding of the format, as |
| 16 | defined in `PKZIP Application Note |

| 66 | will not need to create these, but only use those created by this |
| 67 | module. *filename* should be the full name of the archive member, and |
| 68 | *date_time* should be a tuple containing six fields which describe the time |
| 69 | of the last modification to the file; the fields are described in section |

Georg Brandl | 116aa62 | 2007-08-15 14:28:22 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 134 | |
| 135 | Open a ZIP file, where *file* can be either a path to a file (a string) or a |
| 136 | file-like object. The *mode* parameter should be ``'r'`` to read an existing |
| 137 | file, ``'w'`` to truncate and write a new file, or ``'a'`` to append to an |
Ezio Melotti | faa6b7f | 2009-12-30 12:34:59 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 138 | existing file. If *mode* is ``'a'`` and *file* refers to an existing ZIP |
| 139 | file, then additional files are added to it. If *file* does not refer to a |
| 140 | ZIP file, then a new ZIP archive is appended to the file. This is meant for |
| 141 | adding a ZIP archive to another file (such as :file:`python.exe`). If |
| 142 | *mode* is ``a`` and the file does not exist at all, it is created. |
| 143 | *compression* is the ZIP compression method to use when writing the archive, |
Martin v. Löwis | 7fb79fc | 2012-05-13 10:06:36 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 144 | and should be :const:`ZIP_STORED`, :const:`ZIP_DEFLATED`, |
| 145 | :const:`ZIP_BZIP2` or :const:`ZIP_LZMA`; unrecognized |
| 146 | values will cause :exc:`RuntimeError` to be raised. If :const:`ZIP_DEFLATED`, |
| 147 | :const:`ZIP_BZIP2` or :const:`ZIP_LZMA` is specified but the corresponded module |
| 148 | (:mod:`zlib`, :mod:`bz2` or :mod:`lzma`) is not available, :exc:`RuntimeError` |
Ezio Melotti | faa6b7f | 2009-12-30 12:34:59 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 149 | is also raised. The default is :const:`ZIP_STORED`. If *allowZip64* is |
| 150 | ``True`` zipfile will create ZIP files that use the ZIP64 extensions when |
Serhiy Storchaka | f8def28 | 2013-02-16 17:29:56 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 151 | the zipfile is larger than 2 GiB. If it is false (the default) :mod:`zipfile` |
Ezio Melotti | faa6b7f | 2009-12-30 12:34:59 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 152 | will raise an exception when the ZIP file would require ZIP64 extensions. |
| 153 | ZIP64 extensions are disabled by default because the default :program:`zip` |
| 154 | and :program:`unzip` commands on Unix (the InfoZIP utilities) don't support |
| 155 | these extensions. |

Ezio Melotti | faa6b7f | 2009-12-30 12:34:59 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 161 | ZipFile is also a context manager and therefore supports the |
| 162 | :keyword:`with` statement. In the example, *myzip* is closed after the |
| 163 | :keyword:`with` statement's suite is finished---even if an exception occurs:: |

| 387 | |
| 388 | Search for files :file:`\*.py` and add the corresponding file to the |
| 389 | archive. |
| 390 | |
| 391 | If the *optimize* parameter to :class:`PyZipFile` was not given or ``-1``, |
| 392 | the corresponding file is a :file:`\*.pyo` file if available, else a |
| 393 | :file:`\*.pyc` file, compiling if necessary. |
| 394 | |
| 395 | If the *optimize* parameter to :class:`PyZipFile` was ``0``, ``1`` or |
| 396 | ``2``, only files with that optimization level (see :func:`compile`) are |
| 397 | added to the archive, compiling if necessary. |
| 398 | |
| 399 | If the pathname is a file, the filename must end with :file:`.py`, and |
| 400 | just the (corresponding :file:`\*.py[co]`) file is added at the top level |
| 401 | (no path information). If the pathname is a file that does not end with |
| 402 | :file:`.py`, a :exc:`RuntimeError` will be raised. If it is a directory, |
| 403 | and the directory is not a package directory, then all the files |
| 404 | :file:`\*.py[co]` are added at the top level. If the directory is a |
| 405 | package directory, then all :file:`\*.py[co]` are added under the package |
| 406 | name as a file path, and if any subdirectories are package directories, |
| 407 | all of these are added recursively. *basename* is intended for internal |
| 408 | use only. The :meth:`writepy` method makes archives with file names like |
| 409 | this:: |
| 410 | |
| 411 | string.pyc # Top level name |
| 412 | test/__init__.pyc # Package directory |
| 413 | test/testall.pyc # Module test.testall |
