Demonstrates how to add a directory path to files when zipping.
For example, if files are located in directory_name:
-directory_name
--123.txt
--321.txt
The need to to create a .zip with this directory structure:
-directory_name
--123.txt
--321.txt
import sys
import chilkat2
# This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
# See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.
zip = chilkat2.Zip()
# Intialize the zip object by calling NewZip.
success = zip.NewZip("qa_output/test.zip")
# Set a path prefix:
zip.PathPrefix = "directory_name/"
# Add references to files:
recurse = True
success = zip.AppendFiles("c:/zipTest/directory_name/*",recurse)
if (success != True):
print(zip.LastErrorText)
sys.exit()
success = zip.WriteZipAndClose()
if (success != True):
print(zip.LastErrorText)
sys.exit()
print("success.")
