datalad_next.iter_collections.zipfile

Report on the content of ZIP file

The main functionality is provided by the iter_zip() function.

class datalad_next.iter_collections.zipfile.ZipfileItem(type: 'FileSystemItemType', name: 'PurePosixPath', size: 'int', mtime: 'float | None' = None, mode: 'int | None' = None, uid: 'int | None' = None, gid: 'int | None' = None, link_target: 'PurePath | None' = None, fp: 'IO | None' = None)[source]

Bases: FileSystemItem

name: PurePosixPath

ZIP uses POSIX paths as item identifiers from version 6.3.3 onwards. Not all POSIX paths are legal paths on non-POSIX file systems or platforms. Therefore we cannot use a platform-dependent PurePath-instance to address ZIP-file items, anq we use PurePosixPath-instances instead.

datalad_next.iter_collections.zipfile.iter_zip(path: Path, *, fp: bool = False) → Generator[ZipfileItem, None, None][source]

Uses the standard library zipfile module to report on ZIP-files

A ZIP archive can represent more or less the full bandwidth of file system properties, therefore reporting on archive members is implemented similar to iter_dir(). The iterator produces an ZipfileItem instance with standard information on file system elements, such as size, or mtime.

Parameters:

  • path (Path) -- Path of the ZIP archive to report content for (iterate over).

  • fp (bool, optional) -- If True, each file-type item includes a file-like object to access the file's content. This file handle will be closed automatically when the next item is yielded or the function returns.

Yields:

ZipfileItem
