How to build multiple .py files into a single executable file using pyinstaller?

Question

I have made a small PyQt application containing 5-6 .py files. Now I want to build and compile them into a single main file, meaning it has to operate from one main window exe.

My .py files are connected with each other successfully. I have used pyinstaller to make the executable file, but the problem is I built each .py file into its own .exe file. But I want to make a single .exe file through which all the .py files can be used.

How to build all .py files into a single .exe file?

Answer 1

Suppose you had a file called create.py like

def square (num)
    return num ** 2 

Another file in the same directory called input.py

from . import create
def take_input():
    x = input("Enter Input")
    return create.square(x)

And finally your main.py

from . import input
if __name__ == '__main__':
    ip = input.take_input()

You will call the command -

pyinstaller --onefile main.py

And pyinstaller will import all the dependencies of all the files itself

Answer 2

Try this:

pyinstaller --onefile main_app.py

Answer 3

Use the Command pyinstaller --onefile yourprogramname.py. Pyinstaller will Automatically import and Compile the Dependency Files.
