🔒 Compile 3 Python Files Using Pyinstaller

[flint nebula]

So I have 3 files of code
This code requried some massive pip installs though
So when compile it, the file is like 3gb

Below is the .spec I used:

a = Analysis(
    ['app.py'],
    pathex=[],
    binaries=[],
    datas=[],
    hiddenimports=[],
    hookspath=[],
    hooksconfig={},
    runtime_hooks=[],
    excludes=[],
    noarchive=False,
    optimize=0,
)
pyz = PYZ(a.pure)

exe = EXE(
    pyz,
    a.scripts,
    a.binaries,
    a.datas,
    [],
    name='app',
    debug=True,
    bootloader_ignore_signals=False,
    strip=False,
    upx=True,
    upx_exclude=[],
    runtime_tmpdir=None,
    console=False,
    disable_windowed_traceback=False,
    argv_emulation=False,
    target_arch=None,
    codesign_identity=None,
    entitlements_file=None,
)

And the command:

PyInstaller AeroHelper.spec

Hey @flint nebula!

Please edit your message to use a code block

Add a py after the three backticks.

```py
print('Hello, world!')
```

This will result in the following:

print('Hello, world!')```

Remember to:

• Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
• Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
• Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.

Python is not meant to be distributed as an exe , therefore any existing solutions such as pyinstaller will do hacks things to make it work, for example; pyinstaller will grab the Python exe itself, and then any dependencies your script needs, and bundle it into an zip folder which it then converts into an executable file, so the final executable will contain Python itself, plus all the dependencies into a single file which means that if any of your dependencies are quite big, then the final executable will have a quite large file size

Hmm

Then what can I do?

Can I do sm where it downloads the dependencies

Cuz I’m not switching languages

AFK to bed btw
Will read in morning

No

[primal citrus]

You could share the source code and have them download the dependencies
