ZipFly is an open-source Python library for creating ZIP archives efficiently using streaming. Unlike traditional methods that require storing files in memory or writing temporary ZIP files to disk, ZipFly allows on-the-fly ZIP archive generation, making it suitable for large datasets and web applications.[1]
ZipFly is widely used in Python applications that require efficient ZIP file generation, particularly in web frameworks like Django and Flask.[2]
Features
[edit]ZipFly provides features such as:
- Streaming ZIP generation – Creates ZIP files dynamically without loading them fully into memory.
- Optimized for web frameworks – Works with Django and Flask for direct ZIP downloads using streaming responses.
- No temporary file storage – Eliminates the need for disk-based temporary ZIP files.
- Efficient API – Accepts a list of file paths and generates ZIP content as an iterator.
- Compatible with HTTP streaming – Supports HTTP-based delivery of ZIP files without blocking server resources.
