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()``.

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>`_.
