(Chilkat2-Python) Gzip a File
Demonstrates how to create a .gz (gzipped file).
import sys
import chilkat2
# This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
# See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.
gzip = chilkat2.Gzip()
# This will create a .gz such that when ungzipped by a tool such as 7-Zip,
# it will create "qa_data/hamlet.xml".
success = gzip.CompressFile("qa_data/hamlet.xml","qa_output/hamlet.xml.gz")
if (success == False):
print(gzip.LastErrorText)
sys.exit()
# Call CompressFile2 to explicitly specify the ungzip path
# For example, this will create a .gz such that when ungzipped by a tool such as 7-Zip,
# it will create "hamlet.xml".
embeddedExtractPath = "hamlet.xml"
success = gzip.CompressFile2("qa_data/hamlet.xml",embeddedExtractPath,"qa_output/hamlet2.xml.gz")
if (success == False):
print(gzip.LastErrorText)
sys.exit()
print("Success.")
