: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>
|
|
|
|
|
|
This module adds the ability to import Python modules (:file:`\*.py`,
|
|
:file:`\*.py[co]`) 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 ``sys.path`` items that are paths
|
|
to ZIP archives.
|
|
|
|
Typically, ``sys.path`` is a list of directory names as strings. This module
|
|
also allows an item of ``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:`/tmp/example.zip/lib/` would only
|
|
import from the :file:`lib/` subdirectory within the archive.
|
|
|
|
Any files may be present in the ZIP archive, but only files :file:`.py` and
|
|
:file:`.py[co]` are available for import. 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` or :file:`.pyo` file, meaning that if a ZIP archive
|
|
doesn't contain :file:`.pyc` files, importing may be rather slow.
|
|
|
|
ZIP archives with an archive comment are currently not supported.

:pep:`0273` - 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.
|
|
|
|
:pep:`0302` - New Import Hooks
|
|
The PEP to add the import hooks that help this module work.
|
|
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
.. method:: find_module(fullname[, path])
|
|
|
|
Search for a module specified by *fullname*. *fullname* must be the fully
|
|
qualified (dotted) module name. It returns the zipimporter instance itself
|
|
if the module was found, or :const:`None` if it wasn't. The optional
|
|
*path* argument is ignored---it's there for compatibility with the
|
|
importer protocol.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. method:: get_code(fullname)
|
|
|
|
Return the code object for the specified module. Raise
|
|
:exc:`ZipImportError` if the module couldn't be found.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. method:: get_data(pathname)
|
|
|
|
Return the data associated with *pathname*. Raise :exc:`IOError` if the
|
|
file wasn't found.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. 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
|
|
found.
|
|
|
|
.. 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. It returns the imported module, or raises
|
|
:exc:`ZipImportError` if it wasn't found.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. 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.
