Apfio packs files into one

apfio

apfio packs files into one: It gives you Python objects that look like arrays, but are backed by *.zip files on disk. Here is an example:

from PIL import Image
from apfio.data import sunset, flower
from apfio.vision.file import vopen

# Store images in ZIP file.
with vopen("myimages.zip", mode='w', shape=(2, ), fmt=ImageFormat.AVIF) as array:
    array[0] = flower()
    array[1] = sunset()

# Read images from ZIP file.
with vopen("myimages.zip", mode='r') as array:
    for idx, cell in enumerate(array):
        with Image.fromarray(cell.point()) as image:
            image.save(f"image{idx}.jpg")

For this example to work you must install the additional packages apfio-imaging and apfio-vision.
