-
- Bz2file is a Python library for reading and writing bzip2-compressed files.
-
- It contains a drop-in replacement for the file interface in the standard
- library's ``bz2`` module, including features from the latest development
- version of CPython that are not available in older releases.
-
- Bz2file is compatible with CPython 2.6, 2.7, and 3.0 through 3.4, as well as
- PyPy 2.0.
-
-
- Features
- --------
-
- - Supports multi-stream files.
-
- - Can read from or write to any file-like object.
-
- - Can open files in either text or binary mode.
-
- - Added methods: ``peek()``, ``read1()``, ``readinto()``, ``fileno()``,
- ``readable()``, ``writable()``, ``seekable()``.
-
-
- Installation
- ------------
-
- To install bz2file, run: ::
-
- $ pip install bz2file
-
-
- Documentation
- -------------
-
- The ``open()`` function and ``BZ2File`` class in this module provide the same
- features and interface as the ones in the standard library's ``bz2`` module in
- the current development version of CPython, `documented here
- <http://docs.python.org/dev/library/bz2.html>`_.
