zipimport --- 從 Zip 封存檔案匯入模組

原始碼:Lib/zipimport.py


This module adds the ability to import Python modules (*.py, *.pyc) and packages from ZIP-format archives. It is usually not needed to use the zipimport module explicitly; it is automatically used by the built-in 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 example.zip/lib/ would only import from the lib/ subdirectory within the archive.

Any files may be present in the ZIP archive, but importers are only invoked for .py and .pyc files. ZIP import of dynamic modules (.pyd, .so) is disallowed. Note that if an archive only contains .py files, Python will not attempt to modify the archive by adding the corresponding .pyc file, meaning that if a ZIP archive doesn't contain .pyc files, importing may be rather slow.

在 3.8 版的變更: Previously, ZIP archives with an archive comment were not supported.

PEP 273 - 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.

importlib - The implementation of the import machinery

Package providing the relevant protocols for all importers to implement.

This module defines an exception:

exception zipimport.ZipImportError

Exception raised by zipimporter objects. It's a subclass of ImportError, so it can be caught as ImportError, too.

zipimporter 物件

zipimporter is the class for importing ZIP files.

class zipimport.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 foo/bar.zip/lib will look for modules in the lib directory inside the ZIP file foo/bar.zip (provided that it exists).

ZipImportError is raised if archivepath doesn't point to a valid ZIP archive.

在 3.12 版的變更: Methods find_loader() and find_module(), deprecated in 3.10 are now removed. Use find_spec() instead.

create_module(spec)

Implementation of importlib.abc.Loader.create_module() that returns None to explicitly request the default semantics.

在 3.10 版被加入.

exec_module(module)

Implementation of importlib.abc.Loader.exec_module().

在 3.10 版被加入.

find_spec(fullname, target=None)

An implementation of importlib.abc.PathEntryFinder.find_spec().

在 3.10 版被加入.

get_code(fullname)

Return the code object for the specified module. Raise ZipImportError if the module couldn't be imported.

get_data(pathname)

Return the data associated with pathname. Raise OSError if the file wasn't found.

在 3.3 版的變更: IOError used to be raised, it is now an alias of OSError.

get_filename(fullname)

Return the value __file__ would be set to if the specified module was imported. Raise ZipImportError if the module couldn't be imported.

在 3.1 版被加入.

get_source(fullname)

Return the source code for the specified module. Raise ZipImportError if the module couldn't be found, return None if the archive does contain the module, but has no source for it.

is_package(fullname)

Return True if the module specified by fullname is a package. Raise ZipImportError if the module couldn't be found.

load_module(fullname)

Load the module specified by fullname. fullname must be the fully qualified (dotted) module name. Returns the imported module on success, raises ZipImportError on failure.

在 3.10 版之後被棄用: Use exec_module() instead.

invalidate_caches()

Clear out the internal cache of information about files found within the ZIP archive.

在 3.10 版被加入.

archive

The file name of the importer's associated ZIP file, without a possible subpath.

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 archive and prefix attributes, when combined with a slash, equal the original archivepath argument given to the zipimporter constructor.

範例

Here is an example that imports a module from a ZIP archive - note that the zipimport module is not explicitly used.

$ unzip -l example.zip
Archive:  example.zip
