Hi,

Is there any Python equivalent of java jar,can I include all my
sources,properties file etc into a single file.Is there anyway in
Python that I can run like the following

java -jar Mytest.jar --startwebserver

How to so something like this in Python?

Thanks

It's mostly possible. See http://docs.python.org/library/zipimport.html

Similar but not equal:

$ tree mytest
mytest
|-- __init__.py
`-- main.py

$ cat mytest/__init__.py
if __name__ == '__main__':
import sys
print sys.argv
import mytest.main

$ cat mytest/main.py
print 'hi mom'

$ zip -r mytest.zip mytest
adding: mytest/ (stored 0%)
adding: mytest/main.py (stored 0%)
adding: mytest/__init__.py (deflated 4%)

$ PYTHONPATH=mytest.zip python -m mytest --startserver
[None, '--startserver']
hi mom

Python eggs different from the zip file you created here
