How to zip a folder and file in python?

问题:

I've got a folder called: 'files' which contains lots of jpg photographs. I've also got a file called 'temp.kml'. I want to create a KMZ file (basically a zip file) which contains the temp.kml file AND the files directory which has the photographs sitting inside it.

Here is my code:

zfName = 'simonsZip.kmz'
foo = zipfile.ZipFile(zfName, 'w')
foo.write("temp.kml")
foo.close()
os.remove("temp.kml")

This creates the kmz file and puts the temp.kml inside. But I also want to put the folder called 'files' in as well. How do I do this?

I read here on StackOverflow that some people have used shutil to make zip files. Can anyone offer a solution?

回答1:

The zipfile module in python has no support for adding a directory with file so you need to add the files one by one.

This is an (untested) example of how that can be achieved by modifying your code example:

import os

zfName = 'simonsZip.kmz'
foo = zipfile.ZipFile(zfName, 'w')
foo.write("temp.kml")
# Adding files from directory 'files'
for root, dirs, files in os.walk('files'):
    for f in files:
        foo.write(os.path.join(root, f))
foo.close()
os.remove("temp.kml")

You can use shutil

import shutil

shutil.make_archive("simonsZip", "zip", "files")
