Creating an archive

import zipfile
 
 
#Create a new archive
a = zipfile.ZipFile("C:\\x.zip", 'w')

a.write("C:\\x.sis")
#Close the archive
a.close()

Appending to an existing archive

import zipfile

a.write("C:\\y.sis")
#Close the archive
a.close()

Extracting the contents of an archive

import zipfile
 
 
#Open the archive in read mode
a = zipfile.ZipFile("C:\\x.zip", 'r')
#Extract every file from it
for i in a.namelist():
     b = open("C:\\"+i, 'wb')
     b.write(a.read(i))
     b.close()
#Close the archive
a.close()
