Including python code into jar file?

[Ilya Platonov]

Is there a way to bundle python files into jar file somehow or they need to be on file system?

I tried to use JepConfig().setIncludePath("classpath:") but it does not work.

I also tried to use "jar:file:/path/to/file.jar/search_core.jar!"

Since a jar file is just a zip file you might be able to hook something up using zipimport. I haven't tried it but something like this might work:

import zipimport

import sys

sys.meta_path.append(zipimport.zipimporter("/path/to/file.jar")

Thank you for the pointer.

Apparently you can just add .jar file path to sys.path and it picks up from there. I ended up writing following code(Kotlin)

        this.javaClass.classLoader.getResources("mypackage/__init__.py").asSequence().forEach { url ->
            if (url.protocol == "file") {
                jepConfig.addIncludePaths(Paths.get(url.path).parent.parent.toString())
            } else if (url.protocol == "jar") {
                val path = Paths.get(url.path).parent.parent.toString().trimEnd('!')
                jepConfig.addIncludePaths(path)
            }
        }

Works like a charm.
