tmpfile and gzip combination problem
- by Vojtech R.
I have problem with this code:
file = tempfile.TemporaryFile(mode='wrb')
file.write(base64.b64decode(data))
file.flush()
os.fsync(file)
# file.seek(0)
f = gzip.GzipFile(mode='rb', fileobj=file)
print f.read()
I dont know why it doesn't print out anything. If I uncomment file.seek then error occurs:
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/gzip.py", line 263, in _read
self._read_gzip_header()
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/gzip.py", line 162, in _read_gzip_header
magic = self.fileobj.read(2)
IOError: [Errno 9] Bad file descriptor
Just for information this version works fine:
x = open("test.gzip", 'wb')
x.write(base64.b64decode(data))
x.close()
f = gzip.GzipFile('test.gzip', 'rb')
print f.read()
