Pure python 7-zip implementation

Dependency

py7zr uses a python3 standard lzma module for extraction and compression. The standard lzma module uses liblzma that support core compression algorithm of 7zip.

Minimum required version is Python 3.5. Two additional library is required only on Python3.5; contextlib2 and pathlib2.

Compression is supported on Python 3.6 and later.

There are other runtime requrements; texttable, pycryptodome

Version recommendations are:

  • CPython 3.7.5, CPython 3.8.0 and later.

  • PyPy3.6-7.2.0 and later.

Following fixes are included in these versions, and it is not fixed on python3.6.

  • BPO-21872: LZMA library sometimes fails to decompress a file

  • PyPy3-3088: lzma.LZMADecomporessor.decompress does not respect max_length

Compression Methods

‘py7zr’ supports algorithms and filters which python3 standard lzma module and liblzma support. It also support algorithms that is implemented in python core such as Bzip2. It does not support one which lzma module and liblzma can not handle such as BCJ2.

Here is a table of algorithms.

Category

Algorithms

Compress/Decompress Supported

LZMA2 BCJ(X86, IA64, ARM, ARMT, PPC, POWERPC)

Decompress only (Decryption)

LZMA, Delta, COPY, Bzip2, Deflate AES

Unsupported or not worked

PPMd, BCJ2, LZMA+BCJ

  • A feature handling symbolic link is basically compatible with ‘p7zip’ implementation, but not work with original 7-zip because the original does not implement the feature.

Document

Here is a readthedocs manual document.

Usage

You can run command script py7zr like as follows;

$ py7zr l test.7z
$ py7zr x test.7z
$ py7zr x -P test.7z
  password?: ****
$ py7zr w target.7z test_dir
$ py7zr help

py7zr is a library which can use in your python application. Here is a code snippet how to decompress some file in your applicaiton.

import py7zr

archive = py7zr.SevenZipFile('sample.7z', mode='r')
archive.extractall(path="/tmp")
archive.close()

Here is a code snippet how to produce archive.

import py7zr

archive = py7zr.SevenZipFile('target.7z', 'w')
archive.writeall('./base_dir')
archive.close()

You can also use ‘with’ block because py7zr provide context manager(v0.6 and later).

import py7zr

with py7zr.SevenZipFile('sample.7z', mode='r') as z:
    z.extractall()

with py7zr.SevenZipFile('target.7z', 'w') as z:
    z.writeall('./base_dir')

py7zr also supports extraction of single or selected files by ‘extract(targets=[‘file path’])’. Note: if you specify only a file but not a parent directory, it will fail.

import py7zr
import re

filter_pattern = re.compile(r'<your/target/file_and_directories/regex/expression>')
with SevenZipFile('archive.7z', 'r') as archive:
    allfiles = archive.getnames()
    selective_files = [f if filter_pattern.match(f) for f in allfiles]
    archive.extract(targets=selective_files)

py7zr support an extraction of password protected archive.(v0.6 and later)

import py7zr

with py7zr.SevenZipFile('encrypted.7z', mode='r', password='secret') as z:
    z.extractall()

py7zr also support shutil interface.

from py7zr import pack_7zarchvie, unpack_7zarchive
import shutil

# register file format at first.
shutil.register_archive_format('7zip', pack_7zarchive, description='7zip archive')
shutil.register_unpack_format('7zip', ['.7z'], unpack_7zarchive)

# extraction
shutil.unpack_archive('test.7z', '/tmp')

# compression
shutil.make_archive('target', '7zip', 'src')

Unreleased

Added

Changed

Fixed

Deprecated

Removed

Security

v0.7.0

Changed

  • Extraction: Unlink output file if exist when it become a symbolic link. When overwrite extracted files and there are symlinks, it may cause an unexpected result. Unlinking it may help it.

v0.7.0b3

Added

  • Support dereference option of SevenZipFile class. (#131) If dereference is False, add symbolic and hard links to the archive. If it is True, add the content of the target files to the archive. This has no effect on systems that do not support symbolic links.

  • Introduce progress callback mechanism (#130)

Changed

  • CLI: add –verbose option for extraction

  • win32: update win32compat

Fixed

  • Fix archiveinfo() for 7zAES archives

v0.7.0b2

Fixed

  • Support extraction of file onto a place where path length is > 260 bytes on Windows 10, Windows Server 2016R2 and later. (Windows Vista, 7 and Windows Server 2012 still have a limitation of path length as a OS spec)(#116, #126)

v0.7.0b1
