Script ext is not .py, list it in command line. For example, my.config is a python script but not standard extension name:

pyarmor gen main.py my.config

To include special script in package. For example:

pyarmor cfg finder:includes="lib/my.config"
pyamor gen -r lib

To exclude "test" and all the path "test":

pyarmor cfg finder:excludes + "*/test"

To include data files, these data file will be copied to output:

pyarmor cfg finder:data_files="lib/readme.txt"
pyamor gen -r lib

For example, the test-project hierarchy is as follows:

$ tree test-project

test-project
├── MANIFEST.in
├── pyproject.toml
├── setup.cfg
└── src
    └── parent
        ├── child
        │   └── __init__.py
        └── __init__.py

There are 2 exclude rules *__pycache__ and */test.py to filter scripts:

$ cd test-project
$ pyarmor cfg finder:exclude + "*__pycache__ */test.py"
$ pyamor gen -r src/parent

It uses :mod:`fnmatch` to match pattern, the matched item is excluded. Here are check list:

fnmatch("src/parent/__init__.py", "*__pycache__")
fnmatch("src/parent/__init__.py", "*/test.py")

fnmatch("src/parent/child", "*__pycache__")
fnmatch("src/parent/child", "*/test.py")

fnmatch("src/parent/child/__init__.py", "*__pycache__")
fnmatch("src/parent/child/__init__.py", "*/test.py")
