How to use pyinstaller with matplotlib in use

Question

I have this script that I attached a GUI to the front of and wanted to distribute it to other DnD DMs for them to use to overlay grids onto images. Only issue is that everytime I try to package the python script using Pyinstaller, it keeps throwing two different errors. If I run pyinstaller --hidden-import matplotlib myscript.py it returns

    NameError: name 'defaultParams' is not defined
    [7532] Failed to execute script ImageGridder

So I decided to try and run the command again with the --onefile option. When I do so it returns,

   RuntimeError: Could not find the matplotlib data files
   [18884] Failed to execute script ImageGridder

Now in both examples, the packaging process completes, and all of the files seem to be generated correctly. It's just when I run the .exe it generates, it crashes. I know the file itself runs properly as I have gotten it to run and work properly on both my desktop and laptop. I've done a good few hours of searching for anything that would help, but nothing really seems to work. The script itself,

I am running python 3.8, matplotlib 3.3.0, tkinter, and PIL 6.2.2, and pyinstaller 3.6.

The contents of the warning file while using the --onefile command:

This file lists modules PyInstaller was not able to find. This does not
necessarily mean this module is required for running you program. Python and
Python 3rd-party packages include a lot of conditional or optional modules. For
example the module 'ntpath' only exists on Windows, whereas the module
'posixpath' only exists on Posix systems.

Types if import:
* top-level: imported at the top-level - look at these first
* conditional: imported within an if-statement
* delayed: imported from within a function
* optional: imported within a try-except-statement

IMPORTANT: Do NOT post this list to the issue-tracker. Use it as a basis for
           yourself tracking down the missing module. Thanks!

Answer 1

You can try to solve this problem by installing older versions of the matplotlib package. eg:

pip install matplotlib==3.2.2

Answer 2

In --onefile mode, based on this commit by a PyInstaller contributor, which references https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/issues/5004, you can just modify PyInstaller\hooks\hook-matplotlib.py so that it has:

datas = [
    (mpl_data_dir, "matplotlib/mpl-data"),
]

instead of

datas = [   datas = [
    (mpl_data_dir, "mpl-data"),
]
