usage

zipping/archiving

simple usage to zip a folder:

pyziper zip folder_name zip_name

complete command to zip file(s)/folder(s):

pyziper zip folder_name zip_name --type zip|7z|tar --multi  --output output_dir

by default your folder is archived using standard zip method(.zip) and output zip file will appear in current dir.
there are 2 other types of archive method that are supported by pyziper, that is tar.gz and 7z, you can access them using the -T/--type option,example :

# 7z
pyziper zip folder_name zip_name -T 7z

#tar.gz
pyziper zip folder_name zip_name -T tar

#zip/default

pyziper zip folder_name zip_name -T zip

# or simply
pyziper zip folder_name zip_name

Note : please dont use ../ to zip a file,pyziper only zip files/folder in current diectory or subdirectory of current directory,not files/folders in previouse directory otherwise archive will error when exctracting

you also can spicify output dir by using -O/--output options,example:

pyziper zip folder_name zip_name -T  tar -O 

in version 0.2,--multi/-m was added,and used to add multiple folders or/and files separated by coma into archive,example:

pyziper zip folder1,folder2,file1,file2.... zip_file -T 7z|tar --multi --output output/dir/

Note : default zip(.zip) currently doesnt have support to archive multiple folders or files. it only worked for 7z and tar.gz archive

unziping/extracting

simple usage of unzipping

pyziper unzip zip_name.zip|7z|tar.gz --output output_dir

option in pyziper(current)

--type/-T	defining archive type,default is .zip
--multi/-M	if it enabled, it will allow you to archive multiple files and/or folders only for 7z and tar type
--output/-O	defining output directory for your archived file,default is your current working directory
