New submission from Irmen de Jong: As briefly discussed on comp.lang.python, I propose to add an optional filter callback function to zipapp.create_archive.
The function could perhaps work like the os.walk generator or maybe just lets you to return a simple boolean for every folder/file that it wants to include in the zip. My use case is that I sometimes don't want to include every file in the root folder into the zip file (I want to be able to skip temporary or irrelevant folders such as .git/.svn, .tox, .tmp and sometimes want to avoid including *.pyc/*.pyo files). Right now, I first have to manually clean up the folder before I can use zipapp.create_archive. (Instead of providing a filter callback fuction, another approach may be to provide your own dir/file generator instead, that fully replaces the internal file listing logic of zipapp.create_archive?) ---------- assignee: paul.moore components: Library (Lib) keywords: easy messages: 299409 nosy: irmen, paul.moore priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: add filter to zipapp type: enhancement _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue31072> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
