fast-zip-decryption 3.0.0

Read password protected Zips 100x faster

fast-zip-decryption

Read Standard Zip Encryption 2.0 encrypted Zips 100x faster with same interface as the CPython standard library's zipfile.ZipFile.

About this Fork

This is a fork of fastzipfile. I created this fork in order to add automated testing, building, and uploading of wheels to my own fast-zip-decryption PyPI repository so that installation is more hassle-free.

Installation

pip install fast-zip-decryption

Usage

You just need to import fast_zip_decryption and that's it. It patches zipfile with a fast decrypter.

import fast_zip_decryption
import zipfile

with zipfile.ZipFile('path-to-file.zip', mode='r') as fz:
    f = fz.open('path-to-file-in-zip', pwd=b'password')
    content = f.read()

Limitation

Currently, it only supports what zipfile.ZipFile supports, e.g., no AES-128 or AES-256 support.
