I'm trying to produce a small .exe using cx_freeze. Earlier I had trouble with the build process in that it would not find certain self-created modules. I have now resolved that issue and I am no longer seeing those self-made modules in the Missing modules output after running python setup.py bdist_msi.
Instead, now after attempting to run the 'main.exe` that is produced I see:
ImportError No module named 'test'
My project structure is:
PROJECT
|
SRC
|
setup.py
main.py
test.py
service.py
The setup.py is as follows:
import sys
from cx_Freeze import setup, Executable
base = None
if sys.platform == "Win32":
base = "Win32GUI"
includes = ["test", "service"] #discovered that self made modules, even in the same directory, had to be added here to not appear in the 'Missing modules'
excludes = []
packages = []
path = []
setup(
name = "a thing",
version = "1.0",
description = "a things description",
author = "author",
author_email = "authors email",
url = "authors url",
options = {"build_exe": {"includes": includes,
"excludes": excludes,
"packages": packages,
"path": path}
},
executables = [Executable("main.py", base = base)]
)
generally you dont need to do any special treatment for your own modules.
i tried the following and for me it worked fine: main.py:
from test import *
if __name__ == "__main__":
mA=A()
mA.b();
test.py:
class A:
def b(self):
print("test")
setup.py:
like yours (without service.py)
