DRB Zip implementation

ZipNode Implementation

This drb-impl-zip module implements access to zip containers with DRB data model. It is able to navigates among the zip contents.

Zip Factory and Zip Node

The module implements the basic factory model defined in DRB in its node resolver. Based on the python entry point mechanism, this module can be dynamically imported into applications.

The entry point group reference is drb.impl.
The implementation name is zip.
The factory class is encoded into drb_impl_zip.file_zip_node.

The zip factory creates a ZipNode from an existing zip content. It uses a base node to access the content data using a streamed implementation from the base node.

The base node can be a DrbFileNode, DrbHttpNode, DrbTarNode or any other nodes able to provide streamed (BufferedIOBase, RawIOBase, IO) zip content.

limitations

The current version does not manage child modification and insertion. ZipNode is currently read only.
