You can create a launcher application for your main application and add all the update logic there. The launcher application does the following: Displays a pop up (this gives a quick feedback to the user that the program is loading) Checks the local and repository versions if local < remote (say v1.0 < v2.0) then: … Read more
If you get errors about h5py submodules, try to use collect_submodules function to add them all to hidden_imports. You probably noticed a file called myscript.spec generated by a pyinstaller. Inside this file is an instruction on how to build you script (and it’s just a python code too!). So try to edit this myscript.spec like … Read more
I think I see the problem. You’re not feeding data_files into your Analysis object. Here’s how I add my data files in my .spec file: a = Analysis(….) a.datas += [(‘7z.dll’, ‘7z.dll’, ‘DATA’)] a.datas += [(‘7z.exe’, ‘7z.exe’, ‘DATA’)] a.datas += [(‘collection.xml’, ‘collection.xml’, ‘DATA’)] a.datas += [(‘License.html’, ‘License.html’, ‘DATA’)] pyz = PYZ(a.pure) exe = EXE(pyz, a.scripts … Read more
PyInstaller uses a hook mechanism for each Python module, but sometimes it misses some internal packages so you need to provide them manually. You can use –hidden-import to add sklearn‘s missing modules. pyinstaller -F –hidden-import=”sklearn.utils._cython_blas” –hidden-import=”sklearn.neighbors.typedefs” –hidden-import=”sklearn.neighbors.quad_tree” –hidden-import=”sklearn.tree._utils” Datamanager.py
The following steps allow a Python module (named external_module here) outside of an executable created by PyInstaller to be imported and for that module to import modules that were bundled into the executable. Add excludes=[‘external_module’] to the Analysis object used in the PyInstaller spec. This prevents external_module.py being bundled into the executable. Add sys.path.append(os.path.dirname(sys.executable)) where … Read more
To install PyInstaller: Go to your command prompt (Start -> Run -> cmd) type the following command cd c:\python27\scripts press enter, this should be where your pip.exe file is located. Once you are in this directory type pip install pyinstaller press enter Message should read Successfully installed pyinstaller.
I would suggest to first read the Using Pyinstaller section in the documentation of the module itself. You can also use some tutorials (e.g. Matt Borgerson’s one). In order to recap you should: write your script and make sure that it works run from the command line: ~\ pyinstaller your_file_name.py this command will generate a … Read more
Their package name have caps in it (not sure if it’s very PEP8 tho..). This should work if you can’t find the pyinstaller executable script: python -m PyInstaller your_script.py
build a .exe for Windows from a python 3 script importing theano with pyinstaller
PyInstaller does allow you to bundle all your resources into the exe, without the trickyness of turning your data files into .py files — your COLLECT object seems to be correct, the tricky step is accessing these files at runtime. PyInstaller will unpack them into a temporary directory and tell you where they are with … Read more
