pyqt5 Getting started with pyqt5 Package your project into excutable/installer

Example

cx_Freeze - a tool can package your project to excutable/installer

• after install it by pip, to package demo.py, we need setup.py below.

import sys
from cx_Freeze import setup, Executable

# Dependencies are automatically detected, but it might need fine tuning.
build_exe_options = {
    "excludes": ["tkinter"],
    "include_files":[('./platforms','./platforms')] # need qwindows.dll for qt5 application
}

# GUI applications require a different base on Windows (the default is for a
# console application).
base = None
if sys.platform == "win32":
    base = "Win32GUI"

setup(  name = "demo",
        version = "0.1",
        description = "demo",
        options = {"build_exe": build_exe_options},
        executables = [Executable("demo.py", base=base)])

• then build

python .\setup.py build

• then dist

python .\setup.py bdist_msi
