py2exe

Does anyone know how to make an exe with py2exe run without the black console? and bundle up all the pyd files etc into just one exe file? Joel Christophel For one exe file, use this setup (taken from this answer ): from distutils.core import setup import py2exe, sys, os sys.argv.append('py2exe') setup( options = {'py2exe': {'bundle_files': 1, 'compressed': True}}, windows = [{'script': "single.py"}], zipfile = None, ) from distutils.core import setup import py2exe, sys, os sys.argv.append('py2exe') setup( windows = [{'script': "pytho.py"}], ) edited for py2exe x64 support 64-bit does not have

I want to create an exe from a python script that uses command line arguments (argv) From what I've seen py2exe doesn't support command-line-arguments What can I do? EDIT: I was using a GUI2Exe tool, so I just missed the Console flag, but the accepted answer is perfectly correct setup(console=['hello.py']) I believe the line you want to use looks like this. I tested this with 2 files: hello.py import sys for arg in sys.argv: print arg print "Hello World!" And setup.py from distutils.core import setup import py2exe setup(console=['hello.py']) I ran these commands: python setup.py py2exe And

I have a Python program uses Qt (PyQt4 in fact) and when I launch it from its main.py, I get a console window and the GUI window (on Windows, of course). Then I compile my program with py2exe and main.exe is successfully created. However, if I run main.exe (this is what users of program will do) console window of Python still appears and all my debug text is stdout-ed to that window. I want to hide cmd line window when my application is running and I want just my GUI to be visible to the user when executed from .exe file. Is that possible? Yep, it is possible. If I use setup(console=['__main__

Are there any alternatives to py2exe? cx_Freeze is cross-platform and does the same, or you could use py2app , which works on mac only. Alex Martelli pyInstaller is cross-platform and very powerful, with many third-party packages (matplotlib, numpy, PyQT4, ...) specially supported "out of the box", support for eggs, code-signing on Windows (and a couple other Windows-only goodies, optional binary packing... the works!-) The one big issue: the last "released" version, 1.3, is ages-old -- you absolutely must install the SVN trunk version, svn co http://svn.pyinstaller.org/trunk pyinstaller (or

I'm trying to use a JPEG image in a QImage object from a Python script, with PyQt4. The script itself works perfectly, the image loads and can be manipulated and rendered and all. However, when I try to "compile" this script with py2exe, everything works but the JPEG image. Replacing it with a PNG equivalent works, but since my program downloads images from the web, they won't always be in PNG format and I can't afford converting them all with another library. I've discovered that JPEG image support for QImage, along with other image formats, is provided by some DLLs in the \qt\plugins

Is it possible to programaticly run compiled Python (comiled via py2exe) as administrator in Vista? Some more clarification: I have written a program that modifies the windows hosts file (c:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts) in Vista the program will not run and will fail with an exception unless you right-click and run as administrator even when the user has administrator privileges, unlike in XP where it will run if the user has administration rights, so I need a way to elevate it to the correct privileges programaticly. Do you mean that you want Windows to prompt for elevation when your
