class
zipfile.ZipFile(file, mode='r', compression=0, allowZip64=False)[source]¶ Class with methods to open, read, write, close, list zip files.
z = ZipFile(file, mode=”r”, compression=ZIP_STORED, allowZip64=False)
- file: Either the path to the file, or a file-like object.
- If it is a path, the file will be opened and closed by ZipFile.
mode: The mode can be either read “r”, write “w” or append “a”. compression: ZIP_STORED (no compression) or ZIP_DEFLATED (requires zlib). allowZip64: if True ZipFile will create files with ZIP64 extensions when
needed, otherwise it will raise an exception when this would be necessary.
