UpdateableZipFile is a simple python package base on a stack overflow answer.
It implements a single class, UpdateableZipFile, that builds on top of the standart library ZipFile,
which allows user to update files inside a zip archive with ease.
from updateablezipfile import UpdateableZipFile
with UpdateableZipFile("C:\Temp\Test2.docx", "a") as o:
# Overwrite a file with a string
o.writestr("word/document.xml", "Some data")
# exclude an exiting file from the zip
o.remove_file("word/fontTable.xml")
# Write a new file (with no conflict) to the zp
o.writestr("new_file", "more data")
# Overwrite a file with a file
o.write(r"C:\Temp\example.png", "word/settings.xml")The implementation is was in no way or form written by me, it is thanks to Or Weis answer on stack overflow.
As of my knowledge this is code is under the Creative Commons license,
based on the terms and conditions of stack overflow.
If you are the original author of the underlying implementation please contact me and i will transfer the package over to you.
