How do I unzip a .zip file in google cloud storage?

Question

How do I unzip a .zip file in Goolge Cloud Storage Bucket? (If we have some other tool like 'CloudBerry Explorer' for AWS, that will be great.)

Answer 1

You can use Python, e.g. from a Cloud Function:

    from google.cloud import storage     from zipfile import ZipFile     from zipfile import is_zipfile     import io      def zipextract(bucketname, zipfilename_with_path):          storage_client = storage.Client()         bucket = storage_client.get_bucket(bucketname)          destination_blob_pathname = zipfilename_with_path                  blob = bucket.blob(destination_blob_pathname)         zipbytes = io.BytesIO(blob.download_as_string())          if is_zipfile(zipbytes):             with ZipFile(zipbytes, 'r') as myzip:                 for contentfilename in myzip.namelist():                     contentfile = myzip.read(contentfilename)                     blob = bucket.blob(zipfilename_with_path + "/" + contentfilename)                     blob.upload_from_string(contentfile)      zipextract("mybucket", "path/file.zip") # if the file is gs://mybucket/path/file.zip
