Descrizione

Feature or enhancement

Proposal:

Hi, as dev working with app designed for both Windows, Mac and Linux systems, I had recently automating with ZipFile task of repacking some internal ZIP archives. To automate the task even more, I created formulas for each of systems to be available on single script, on single call (and so on one machine) to create packages easier.

Unfortunately generated tasks were faulty,
I noticed, that same script performed on Linux or Windows created archives of different types - FAT or UNX, therefore output files were seen as invalid on opposite system.

To make the picture, my flow was:
start on particular OS (either Windows or Linux) ==> download archive from web (fixed format, UNX or FAT) ==> unpacking archive ==> creating new archive from files from previous ==> resulting archive has format from OS, overriding input archive (while I need the exact opposite)

Could I ask You to add possibility from code to enforce archiving files by chosen system , for instance like a compression method (like I chose LZMA), like I suggest below ? Or maybe if it is dependent on the format of the not yet archived input , could a similar flag enforce unpacking file in chosen filesystem , not being dependent on the used machine and OS?
I also provide some output from zipinfo console utility.

I attach some links that hopefully might present the issue,

Best regards and have a good day, also feel free to contact me for more info, Wiktor

Direzione di ricerca

Inizia dai punti di ingresso zipfile.ZipFile e ZipFile.write menzionati nella proposta, quindi traccia il modo in cui vengono assegnati i metadati del file system quando gli archivi vengono creati su Windows, Mac e Linux. Il lavoro è completato quando l’API può imporre i metadati di archivio FAT o Unix richiesti indipendentemente dal sistema operativo host e il comportamento è coperto da test pertinenti.

Scritto dal modello di indicizzazione a partire dal testo della issue.
