Python zipfile compress_size returns ‘int’ object is not callable

I am trying to get the compressed size of a file with Python and zipfile

zip = zipfile.ZipFile('test.zip')
namelist = zip.namelist()
for fn in namelist:
    print fn
    print zip.getinfo(fn).compress_size()

I get the error

TypeError: 'int' object is not callable

What is the reason for that?

Answer

ZipInfo.compress_size is a simple int attribute, not a method, so you just need to do

print zip.getinfo(fn).compress_size

BTW, it’s a Bad Idea to use zip as the name of a variable, as it’s the name of a built-in function.
