A replacement for Python's zipfile that can read and write AES encrypted
zip files. Forked from Python 3.7's zipfile module, it features the same
zipfile API from that time (most notably, lacking support for
pathlib-compatible wrappers that were introduced in Python 3.8).
pip install pyzipperimport pyzipper
secret_password = b'lost art of keeping a secret'
with pyzipper.AESZipFile('new_test.zip',
'w',
compression=pyzipper.ZIP_LZMA,
encryption=pyzipper.WZ_AES) as zf:
zf.setpassword(secret_password)
zf.writestr('test.txt', "What ever you do, don't tell anyone!")
with pyzipper.AESZipFile('new_test.zip') as zf:
zf.setpassword(secret_password)
my_secrets = zf.read('test.txt')The strength of the AES encryption can be configure to be 128, 192 or 256 bits.
By default it is 256 bits. Use the setencryption() method to specify the
encryption kwargs:
import pyzipper
secret_password = b'lost art of keeping a secret'
with pyzipper.AESZipFile('new_test.zip',
'w',
compression=pyzipper.ZIP_LZMA) as zf:
zf.setpassword(secret_password)
zf.setencryption(pyzipper.WZ_AES, nbits=128)
zf.writestr('test.txt', "What ever you do, don't tell anyone!")
with pyzipper.AESZipFile('new_test.zip') as zf:
zf.setpassword(secret_password)
my_secrets = zf.read('test.txt')Official Python ZipFile documentation is available here: https://docs.python.org/3/library/zipfile.html
The docs skeleton was created with Cookiecutter and the audreyr/cookiecutter-pypackage project template.
