我还有另一个代码示例可能会有所帮助，使用python3、pathlib和zipfile。它应该可以在任何操作系统中工作。

from pathlib import Path
import zipfile
from datetime import datetime

DATE_FORMAT = '%y%m%d'


def date_str():
    """returns the today string year, month, day"""
    return '{}'.format(datetime.now().strftime(DATE_FORMAT))


def zip_name(path):
    """returns the zip filename as string"""
    cur_dir = Path(path).resolve()
    parent_dir = cur_dir.parents[0]
    zip_filename = '{}/{}_{}.zip'.format(parent_dir, cur_dir.name, date_str())
    p_zip = Path(zip_filename)
    n = 1
    while p_zip.exists():
        zip_filename = ('{}/{}_{}_{}.zip'.format(parent_dir, cur_dir.name,
                                             date_str(), n))
        p_zip = Path(zip_filename)
        n += 1
    return zip_filename


def all_files(path):
    """iterator returns all files and folders from path as absolute path string
    """
    for child in Path(path).iterdir():
        yield str(child)
        if child.is_dir():
            for grand_child in all_files(str(child)):
                yield str(Path(grand_child))


def zip_dir(path):
    """generate a zip"""
    zip_filename = zip_name(path)
    zip_file = zipfile.ZipFile(zip_filename, 'w')
    print('create:', zip_filename)
    for file in all_files(path):
        print('adding... ', file)
        zip_file.write(file)
    zip_file.close()


if __name__ == '__main__':
    zip_dir('.')
    print('end!')

压缩文件或树（目录及其子目录）。

from pathlib import Path
from zipfile import ZipFile, ZIP_DEFLATED

def make_zip(tree_path, zip_path, mode='w', skip_empty_dir=False):
    with ZipFile(zip_path, mode=mode, compression=ZIP_DEFLATED) as zf:
        paths = [Path(tree_path)]
        while paths:
            p = paths.pop()
            if p.is_dir():
                paths.extend(p.iterdir())
                if skip_empty_dir:
                    continue
            zf.write(p)

要附加到现有存档，请传递mode='a'，以创建新的存档mode='w'（上面的默认值）。因此，假设您希望将3个不同的目录树捆绑在同一归档文件下。

make_zip(path_to_tree1, path_to_arch, mode='w')
make_zip(path_to_tree2, path_to_arch, mode='a')
make_zip(path_to_file3, path_to_arch, mode='a')

您可能想看看zipfile模块；文档位于http://docs.python.org/library/zipfile.html.

您可能还需要os.walk（）来索引目录结构。

现代Python（3.6+）使用pathlib模块对路径进行类似OOP的简洁处理，使用pathlib.Path.rglob（）进行递归globing。据我所知，这相当于乔治·V·莱利的回答：压缩压缩，最顶层的元素是目录，保持空目录，使用相对路径。

from pathlib import Path
from zipfile import ZIP_DEFLATED, ZipFile

from os import PathLike
from typing import Union


def zip_dir(zip_name: str, source_dir: Union[str, PathLike]):
    src_path = Path(source_dir).expanduser().resolve(strict=True)
    with ZipFile(zip_name, 'w', ZIP_DEFLATED) as zf:
        for file in src_path.rglob('*'):
            zf.write(file, file.relative_to(src_path.parent))

注意：如可选类型提示所示，zip_name不能是Path对象（将在3.6.2+中修复）。

我通过将Mark Byers的解决方案与Reimund和Morten Zilmer的评论（相对路径和包括空目录）合并，准备了一个函数。作为最佳实践，在ZipFile的文件构造中使用。

该函数还准备一个带有压缩目录名和“.zip”扩展名的默认zip文件名。因此，它只使用一个参数：要压缩的源目录。

import os
import zipfile

def zip_dir(path_dir, path_file_zip=''):
if not path_file_zip:
    path_file_zip = os.path.join(
        os.path.dirname(path_dir), os.path.basename(path_dir)+'.zip')
with zipfile.ZipFile(path_file_zip, 'wb', zipfile.ZIP_DEFLATED) as zip_file:
    for root, dirs, files in os.walk(path_dir):
        for file_or_dir in files + dirs:
            zip_file.write(
                os.path.join(root, file_or_dir),
                os.path.relpath(os.path.join(root, file_or_dir),
                                os.path.join(path_dir, os.path.pardir)))
