Python to EXE file in one file

Question

So far I have used cx_freeze to convert .py file to .exe file, but I get many files. Is there a way to get it all into one executable?

I have seen that PyInstallerGUI is able to that, but it is for Python 2.7. Can it be done with Python 3.4 as well?

Answer 1

PyInstaller works up to Python 3.5. Once you've installed it (type in your terminal pip install pyinstaller), you can do in your terminal:

pyinstaller --onefile script.py

where script.py is the name of script you want to compile into .exe

With the --onefile option it will create only one .exe file.
