Executable pymcuprog

Open kristofmulier opened this issue 3 years ago • 7 comments

Hi @xedbg , I noticed you're the most active one here in this repo. So I just tagged you to catch your attention. Hopefully you agree that some sort of build script (to produce an executable) would be a great improvement of pymcuprog. Please have a look at my pull request:

Kind regards, Kristof

Hi @kristofmulier, Yes, I saw this, and sorry for not responding. Our current strategy for binaries uses pyinstaller - as used in the iotprovision package - but we have not taken this as far as pymcuprog (yet). So your contribution of an "alternative" option is appreciated, but not trivial to take in without proper consideration...

Hi @xedbg , I understand you prefer the pyinstaller option because you already use that in your other projects. I don't have any particular preference here. As long as the build system produces executables for Windows, Linux (and maybe also MAC), it's great :-)

Do you have an idea when you'd implement the pyinstaller build script?

Kind regards, Kristof

Hi @kristofmulier I know its probably not what you were expecting... but the iotprovision binary released today can be 'skinned' into an executable pymcuprog, if that is useful.
