PyInstaller does NOT work when including Pysnmp

Question

Just trying one of the official documentation site examples:

from pysnmp.hlapi import *

errorIndication, errorStatus, errorIndex, varBinds = next(
    getCm         


        

Answer 1

Got the same error "could not get source code". There is an issue about that created on Pyinstaller github page: https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/issues/1945 Solution is to include ply to spec file as it is described in link you mentioned: Can't get pysnmp to work with pyinstaller by adding "PyInstaller.utils.hooks.collect_submodules('ply')" to hiddenimports

And make sure ply version is >= 3.9!

My spec file looks pretty much same except Analysis part:

a = Analysis(['main.py'],
         binaries=None,
         datas=PyInstaller.utils.hooks.collect_data_files('pysnmp') + \
         hiddenimports=PyInstaller.utils.hooks.collect_submodules('pysmi')+\
         PyInstaller.utils.hooks.collect_submodules('ply') + \
         PyInstaller.utils.hooks.collect_submodules('pyasn1') + \
         PyInstaller.utils.hooks.collect_submodules('pysnmp'),
         hookspath=None,
         runtime_hooks=None,
         excludes=None,
         win_no_prefer_redirects=None,
         win_private_assemblies=None,
         cipher=block_cipher)
