bpo-25711: Rewrite zipimport in pure Python. #6809

Lib/zipimport.py

+
+        path = _get_module_path(self, fullname)
+        if mi:
+            fullpath = path + path_sep + '__init__.py'


bootstrap_external._path_join()

What is the benefit of using bootstrap_external._path_join()?

Readability. When I read path + path_sep + '__init__.py' I have to mentally piece together that this is constructing a file path, while _path_join(path, '__init__.py)` gives me that context implicitly.

+            fullpath = path + path_sep + '__init__.py'
+        else:
+            fullpath = path + '.py'


Might as well use an f-string.

What is the benefit of using an f-string instead of + for concatenating two strings?

I find it more readable.

+                fullpath = f'{self.archive}{path_sep}{path}'

Lib/zipimport.py

+# implementation
+
+def _unpack_uint32(data):


_bootstrap_external._r_long()

What to do with _unpack_uint16? _unpack_uint32 looks to me more descriptive than _r_long.

You can keep _unpack_uint16, I just don't think we need to have two implementations to do the exact same thing of reading in the bytes of a little-endian 4 bytes int. If you don't like the name then feel free to rename it in importlib.

Lib/zipimport.py

+                    name = name.decode('latin1').translate(cp437_table)
+
+            name = name.replace('/', path_sep)
+            path = f'{archive}{path_sep}{name}'


bootstrap_external._path_join()

Lib/zipimport.py

berkerpeksag · 2018-08-19T11:16:44Z

Lib/zipimport.py

+
+def _unpack_uint16(data):
+    """Convert 2 bytes in little-endian to an integer."""
+    assert len(data) == 2


Nit: Wouldn't be better if we raised ValueError here and in _unpack_uint32()?

In all cases the length of the data is checked before calling _unpack_uint*(). The assertion condition is always true.

Comments just based on reading the code. I'm going to test this branch with importlib_resources (standalone) next.

Is this just here to change the error message? I guess that's for compatibility with the message raised by the C implementation? I'm not sure how useful that is, and it does kind of hide the original exception (which might be useful for debugging). My inclination is to preserve the original OSError rather than produce one with a different message, but if you feel otherwise, why not use a raise from here too?

Removed the try block.

The branch does work with importlib_resources AFAICT.

serhiy-storchaka

Thank you for your review @warsaw. I have addressed most of your comments. But AFAIK from error is not needed in the Python code. Exceptions is chained by default. You need to add from None for suppressing chaining.

Just for readability. The above part is ASCII, and 16 chars per row, the below part is non-ASCII, and 8 chars per row. What comment should I add?

The C implementation catches all exceptions. I agree, that this is evil and will change this.

I prefer to make behavior changing clean up and remove unneeded tests in separate PR.

For raising a proper FileNotFoundError you need to specify the corresponding errno.

import errno raise FileNotFoundError(errno.ENOENT, 'No such file or directory', key)

(and maybe using pathname is more proper than key).

I prefer to defer this change to later. It is nontrivial and may need additional discussion and tests.

warsaw

I think we're down to one issue/question for this branch, a merge conflict, and deferring cleanups to a follow on branch.

warsaw

Thanks for doing this - I think it will lead to great improvements in zipimport in the future. My only suggestion would be to open a bpo issue for the subsequent clean up branch, since there are things that we know can be improved on the next pass. I think this is a good change to land.

serhiy-storchaka · 2018-09-18T20:26:01Z

Thank you for your review @warsaw. I have created two following PRs (#9404 and #9406) and one issue (bpo-34726). Will open more. I still don't know what to do with exceptions.
