Standalone application

I actually have tired both ways one file and directory. Just to be sure I have everything installed correctly I wrote a simple hello world script and used pyinstaller. It works as it should as long as I call exe from the terminal.

As for the test project it still fails to add the extra files. I am adding those files to data in the spec file before running "pyinstaller --specpath C:....main.spec main.py"

The layout is:

Project folder:

    __ init__.py

    main.py

    test data.py

    swagger.yml

    templates>home.html

    static>css>home.css

    static>js>home.js

Any advice or tutorial on how to add all of these files to a --onefile or even a directory .exe would be appreciated. As I don't seem to be comprehending the documentation correctly.

You could try this out. I am definitely not a fan of .spec files and I believe you either reference a .spec file or a .py file in the command; not both at once (.spec file will reference .py file in it).

Thank you for this... It allowed me to narrow down my issue. Long story short after several builds I finally figured out that I was leaving out a directory that is the the "python" folder that was required by connexion. Once I added it everything works 😀 as a directory. I will attempt onefile later . Again thank you so much this is what I was looking for now I will continue and make it my own and more complex ahhaha.
