def zip_(zip_file, sources, template=None, cwd=None, runas=None, zip64=False):
    '''
    Uses the ``zipfile`` Python module to create zip files

    .. versionchanged:: 2015.5.0
        This function was rewritten to use Python's native zip file support.
        The old functionality has been preserved in the new function
        :mod:`archive.cmd_zip <salt.modules.archive.cmd_zip>`. For versions
        2014.7.x and earlier, see the :mod:`archive.cmd_zip
        <salt.modules.archive.cmd_zip>` documentation.

    zip_file
        Path of zip file to be created

    sources
        Comma-separated list of sources to include in the zip file. Sources can
        also be passed in a Python list.

        .. versionchanged:: 2017.7.0
            Globbing is now supported for this argument

    template : None
        Can be set to 'jinja' or another supported template engine to render
        the command arguments before execution:

        .. code-block:: bash

            salt '*' archive.zip template=jinja /tmp/zipfile.zip /tmp/sourcefile1,/tmp/{{grains.id}}.txt

    cwd : None
        Use this argument along with relative paths in ``sources`` to create
        zip files which do not contain the leading directories. If not
        specified, the zip file will be created as if the cwd was ``/``, and
        creating a zip file of ``/foo/bar/baz.txt`` will contain the parent
        directories ``foo`` and ``bar``. To create a zip file containing just
        ``baz.txt``, the following command would be used:

        .. code-block:: bash

            salt '*' archive.zip /tmp/baz.zip baz.txt cwd=/foo/bar

    runas : None
        Create the zip file as the specified user. Defaults to the user under
        which the minion is running.

    zip64 : False
        Used to enable ZIP64 support, necessary to create archives larger than
        4 GByte in size.
        If true, will create ZIP file with the ZIPp64 extension when the zipfile
        is larger than 2 GB.
        ZIP64 extension is disabled by default in the Python native zip support
        because the default zip and unzip commands on Unix (the InfoZIP utilities)
        don't support these extensions.

    CLI Example:

    .. code-block:: bash

        salt '*' archive.zip /tmp/zipfile.zip /tmp/sourcefile1,/tmp/sourcefile2
        # Globbing for sources (2017.7.0 and later)
        salt '*' archive.zip /tmp/zipfile.zip '/tmp/sourcefile*'
