TypeError: expected str, bytes or os.PathLike object, not TextIOWrapper couldnt be solved-CodePudding

I want to open a file and then convert it from docx to zip. I am experiencing a blockade however with the selected file variable with the error of the title. "selected_file" in last line is highlighted as the bug in my IDE. Please know I am a beginner. My code is below:

import zipfile
import os
import tkinter as tk
from tkinter.filedialog import askopenfilename
tk.Tk().withdraw()

fn = askopenfilename(initialdir='/Desktop', title='Select a file', filetypes=(('docx file', '*.docx'), ('All files', '*.*')))

selected_file = open(fn)

with open(os.path.splitext(selected_file)[0]   '.zip')

CodePudding user response：

Not quite sure what you want. Note that a .docx file is just a ZIP file containing (mostly) XML files. The code below will open a dialog on the current directory to select a DOCX file and list the files in the archive:

import zipfile
from tkinter.filedialog import askopenfilename

fn = askopenfilename(title='Select a file', filetypes=(('docx file', '*.docx'), ('All files', '*.*')))

with zipfile.ZipFile(fn) as z:
    for file in z.namelist():
        print(file)

Running this and selecting a DOCX file I had returns:

[Content_Types].xml
_rels/.rels
word/document.xml
word/_rels/document.xml.rels
word/theme/theme1.xml
word/settings.xml
word/styles.xml
word/webSettings.xml
