I need to zip each individual file based on the list in excel from one folder (Location1) to another folder (Location2) but currently I'm facing a problem whereby the output for my zip file is been placed at the root folder.
Here is my code.
DirectorySource = 'D:\Location1'
DirectoryDestination = 'D:\Location2'
data = openpyxl.load_workbook(r'D:\File_List.xlsx')
df = data['Sheet1']
for i in range(2, df.max_row + 1):
cell_obj = df.cell(row=i, column = 1)
ZipFile(cell_obj.value+'.zip',mode='w').write(DirectorySource+'/'+cell_obj.value+'.txt',
basename(DirectorySource+'/'+cell_obj.value+'.txt'),compress_type=ZIP_DEFLATED)
How can I solve this issue?
To put .zip
file in different folder you have to use path in ZipFile
, not in write
destination = os.path.join(DirectoryDestination, cell_obj.value+'.zip')
ZipFile(destination, ...)
