Quick question

[JoshK68]

Hi,

How can I upload this dataset from Kaggle instead of using !wget?

I downloaded the files from Kaggle and now have a zipped folder on my desktop with test and train folders in it (with images in each).

How can I upload this to my Colab?
What should I replace this code with:

import zipfile

Download zip file of pizza_steak images

!wget https://storage.googleapis.com/ztm_tf_course/food_vision/pizza_steak.zip

Unzip the downloaded file

zip_ref = zipfile.ZipFile("pizza_steak.zip", "r")
zip_ref.extractall()
zip_ref.close()

Thank you very much!
Josh

Hey Josh,

There are several methods to get data in and out of Google Colab, you can see many of them here: https://colab.research.google.com/notebooks/io.ipynb

For example, to upload files from a local system:

from google.colab import files

uploaded = files.upload()

for fn in uploaded.keys():
  print('User uploaded file "{name}" with length {length} bytes'.format(
      name=fn, length=len(uploaded[fn])))
