Using zipfile module - finding folders not files

[darter1010]

I would like to look into a zipped file and make sure it does not contain a Folder and only contains files. I am using Ubuntu 22 if that matters.
Is there just a way to list all folders or 'directories' in a zip file?

Currently I just determine if there is a '/' in the strings generated from the code below - which would indicate to me that the zipped files are in a "folder" and not just a bunch of files. Is there a better way?

(or is this related to 'everything is a file' in Linux? )

 b= ZipFile (FULL_PATH)

        for name in b.namelist():
        print (type(name),name)
        d=name.split('/')
        print (len(d), d[0])

Thanks.

The ZipInfo class has a method is_dir() which should enable you to tell whether members of the archive are directories.

There is a function .is_dir() Look here.

Quite how that works I don't know, probably just does what you are doing!

from zipfile import ZipFile

path2zip = '/home/pedro/tmp/testme.zip'

with ZipFile(path2zip) as archive:
    folders = []
    for file in archive.namelist():
        file_info = archive.getinfo(file)
        if file_info.is_dir():
            info = archive.getinfo(file)
            folder_name = info.filename.rstrip("/")
            folders.append(folder_name)
            print(f'This zip file contains a folder: {info.filename.rstrip("/")}')
    print(f'the folders in this zip file are {folders}')
