How to compile python script to binary executable

by

Or use PyInstaller as an alternative to py2exe. Here is a good starting point. PyInstaller also lets you create executables for linux and mac…

Here is how one could fairly easily use PyInstaller to solve the issue at hand:

pyinstaller oldlogs.py

From the tool’s documentation:

PyInstaller analyzes myscript.py and:

  • Writes myscript.spec in the same folder as the script.
  • Creates a folder build in the same folder as the script if it does not exist.
  • Writes some log files and working files in the build folder.
  • Creates a folder dist in the same folder as the script if it does not exist.
  • Writes the myscript executable folder in the dist folder.

In the dist folder you find the bundled app you distribute to your users.
