WinPython VS galaxy-integrations-python-api

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/

- it can also detect installed games and launch them (through their own launchers, but still) - I don't need that, but some might do. This is a major difference, because without this, lack of Linux support is not a major roadblock (you only have to support the platform web APIs - maybe the galaxy integration API itself is enough, I don't know).

https://github.com/gogcom/galaxy-integrations-python-api I think this library could help but I'm not sure if this is meant to be used to develop an integration between GOG Galaxy and another game platform, or if it allows me to make requests to GOG Galaxy and get the info i want.

Maybe you can look into https://github.com/gogcom/galaxy-integrations-python-api if you need help integrating other stores than Steam (The GoG Client, Galaxy, can already interface with Steam and Epic Games).

As you can see here it has already be requested many times, but they didn't implement it.

CD Projekt's GoG client has a feature where users can write Python extensions [0] for third party account integrations and they ship a Python interpreter alongside the app binary as well.
