python读取网络文件,如何使用Python通过HTTP从远程Zip存档中读取所选文件？

I need to read selected files, matching on the file name, from a remote zip archive using Python. I don't want to save the full zip to a temporary file (it's not that large, so I can handle everything in memory).

I've already written the code and it works, and I'm answering this myself so I can search for it later. But since evidence suggests that I'm one of the dumber participants on Stackoverflow, I'm sure there's room for improvement.

Here's how I did it (grabbing all files ending in ".ranks"):

import urllib2, cStringIO, zipfile

try:

remotezip = urllib2.urlopen(url)

zipinmemory = cStringIO.StringIO(remotezip.read())

zip = zipfile.ZipFile(zipinmemory)

for fn in zip.namelist():

if fn.endswith(".ranks"):

ranks_data = zip.read(fn)

for line in ranks_data.split("\n"):

# do something with each line

except urllib2.HTTPError:

# handle exception
