Extract files from zip file and retain mod date?

by

Well, it does take a little post-processing, but it’s not that bad:

import os
import zipfile
import time

outDirectory = 'C:\\TEMP\\'
inFile="test.zip"
fh = open(os.path.join(outDirectory,inFile),'rb') 
z = zipfile.ZipFile(fh)

for f in z.infolist():
    name, date_time = f.filename, f.date_time
    name = os.path.join(outDirectory, name)
    with open(name, 'wb') as outFile:
        outFile.write(z.open(f).read())
    date_time = time.mktime(date_time + (0, 0, -1))
    os.utime(name, (date_time, date_time))

Okay, maybe it is that bad.
