PyInstaller VS WinPython

Not sure if fixed in this patch, but pyinstaller had an issue in 3.12.0 https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/issues/7992

You are right. I think I've misremembered the module name - it was uwsgi, not uvicorn.

This is a github issue where I discussed my original issue with PyInstaller devs - the dev explained the situation very well: https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/issues/6362

PyInstaller seemed like the most maintained and developed tool to freeze python script into an executable, so I went with it. As expected, the freezed interface with the model was gigabytes large, so I had to figure out how to squeeze this. Fortunately, Onnx worked wonders and packaged the model into an inference only state, so I could throw away the Pytorch and Torchtext dependencies when freezing with Pyinstaller.Now the size of the executable with the model was 43MB instead of 4GB.

You might want to see Pyinstaller and auto_py_to_exe if you want a GUI interface.

It uses the pyinstaller command behind and please read their docs if you want to know more details.

I also found another link on github that may have some solutions to try: https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/issues/3600

I made a Django react app. Now I want to make it a desktop application so that the user does not have type python manage.py runserver and also activate the environment every time. I used pyinstaller. I did all the steps mentioned for django

First, instead of creating a VM for windows, you may need to use a software called Wine mentioned in the pyinstaller FAQs

STEP 1: Python on Windows What to install Download and install WinPython from https://winpython.github.io. I researched Python on Windows and in very short order understood that WinPython is the way to go. While it’s stated audience is scientists, data scientists and education, it fully serves the needs of personal projects. Also, it is available as a portable distribution with no requirement to register with Windows. This checked all the boxes.

Feel free to share the resolver you wrote and we can test it on real world scenarios that are very difficult, here's a fun one that I remember: https://github.com/winpython/winpython/blob/master/Qt5_requirements64.txt

WinPython maybe? https://winpython.github.io/. Its a local python installation.

how can i use the portable version of winpython from https://winpython.github.io to configure into qbittorrent to detect the runtime pre-requisites so that my portable qbittorent search can work? thx in advanced. #portablepython

You equally are barred from e.g., WinPython which can work without an installation into the OS, too? Then - mechanically speaking - it wouldn't matter that the USB ports are permanently plastered with some polymer.

Thank for answering. I understand that the interpreter situation can be annoying. There is WinPython [0] to circumvent that to some degree. I feel like if I don’t do it the „VSCode and py-file“ way, it’ll be more and more difficult to keep everything together when teaching about modularity and putting functions in helper scripts, putting tests in other directories and such. I think it’s just because I got used to using VSCode and not Notebooks although I’ve used them for a while.

One option would be to use a portable Python runtime. Like this one: https://winpython.github.io/
