First of all, most of the tutorials install Pyinstaller in cmd

Use the installation command: pip install pyinstaller; use the mirror source of Tsinghua University to speed up:

pip install pyinstaller -i https://pypi.tuna.tsinghua.edu.cn/simple

The result is as follows:

C:\Users\little>pip install pyinstaller -i https://pypi.tuna.tsinghua.edu.cn/simple

Second, use Pyinstaller to package your project into exe

Single file packaging

pyinstaller -F -w -i xxx.ico main.py --noconsole

Pack multiple files

pyinstaller [主文件] -p [其他文件1] -p [其他文件2] --hidden-import [自建模块1] --hidden-import [自建模块2]

        Common parameter meanings
        -i or -icon generate icon
        -F create a bundled executable
        -w use window, no console
        -C use console, no window
        -D create a single folder package containing the executable ( by default)
        -n filename

For example my project:

correction.py	main running program
add_dialog.py	The dialog interface program that jumps from the main interface
cubic_spline.py	A caller of the main program
correction.ui	Main interface
add_dialog.ui	dialog interface

pyinstaller -F -w correction.py -p add_dialog.py -p cubic_spline.py --hidden-import correction --hidden-import add_dialog --hidden-import cubic_spline

But the exe generated in this way will crash and cannot run due to lack of import

my method

1. In the terminal in pycharm, pip install pyinstaller

2. In the terminal in pycharm, pyinstaller -F -w correction.py -p add_dialog.py -p cubic_spline.py --hidden-import correction --hidden-import add_dialog --hidden-import cubic_spline

After successfully, two folders xxx.spec files, build and dist, will be generated under the folder of the project

3. Open the newly generated dist folder under the folder where the project is located. Just run the exe file inside.

PS: Since my background and icons are added in the main interface program under correction.py, I do not use --icon in pyinstaller

# 设置背景图片
MainWindow.setStyleSheet('#MainWindow{border-image:url(background.jpg);}')  
# 设置图标
MainWindow.setWindowIcon(QtGui.QIcon('logo.ico'))

When running the application, if there is no background and icon display, you need to put your background image and icon into the dist folder, and the background image and icon will be displayed when running

[Python] Explain in detail when Pyinstaller packages pyqt5, the generated exe reports errors, crashes, etc.
