Python in-memory zip library

by

According to the Python docs:

class zipfile.ZipFile(file[, mode[, compression[, allowZip64]]])

  Open a ZIP file, where file can be either a path to a file (a string) or a file-like object.

So, to open the file in memory, just create a file-like object (perhaps using BytesIO).

file_like_object = io.BytesIO(my_zip_data)
zipfile_ob = zipfile.ZipFile(file_like_object)
