7.18.2 PyZipFile Objects
</H2>

<P>
The <tt class="class">PyZipFile</tt> constructor takes the same parameters as the
<tt class="class">ZipFile</tt> constructor.  Instances have one method in addition to
those of <tt class="class">ZipFile</tt> objects.

<P>
<dl><dt><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr valign="baseline">
  <td><nobr><b><tt id='l2h-2869' xml:id='l2h-2869' class="method">writepy</tt></b>(</nobr></td>
  <td><var>pathname</var><big>[</big><var>, basename</var><big>]</big><var></var>)</td></tr></table></dt>
<dd>
  Search for files <span class="file">*.py</span> and add the corresponding file to the
  archive.  The corresponding file is a <span class="file">*.pyo</span> file if
  available, else a <span class="file">*.pyc</span> file, compiling if necessary.  If the
  pathname is a file, the filename must end with <span class="file">.py</span>, and just
  the (corresponding <span class="file">*.py[co]</span>) file is added at the top level
  (no path information).  If it is a directory, and the directory is
  not a package directory, then all the files <span class="file">*.py[co]</span> are
  added at the top level.  If the directory is a package directory,
  then all <span class="file">*.py[oc]</span> are added under the package name as a file
  path, and if any subdirectories are package directories, all of
  these are added recursively.  <var>basename</var> is intended for
  internal use only.  The <tt class="method">writepy()</tt> method makes archives
  with file names like this:

    test/testall.pyc                          # Module test.testall
