Create a .exe from python .py file

#pip install pythonnet pyinstaller

Note: in the code where ever you are using a file directly , use the below function to call that file.

import os

def resource_path(relative_path):
    try:
        base_path = sys._MEIPASS
    except Exception:
        base_path = os.path.abspath(".")

    return os.path.join(base_path, relative_path)
# resultObj = parseXML(resource_path(xmlName))
# instead of #resultObj = parseXML(xmlName)

then:
pyinstaller — onefile hello.py

Or to add files in the same .exe

pyinstaller — onefile — add-data “*.xml;.” hello.py
