MacOSX open file with application: where does it go?

Question

I asked this basic question before, but did not receive an answer with which I could work.

I write applications on my Mac and physically paste them into .app packages (i.e. manually create directories and plist files). But when I open the file in the application, right-clicking on the file in finder and indicating my application, how can I then refer to this file?

I mainly use python, but I'm looking for a way that is pretty universal.

My first guess was as an argument, as were the answers to my previous post, but it is not.

Py:

>>> print(sys.argv[1:])
'-psn_0_#######'

Where is the link to the file?

Thanks in advance,
