PyInstaller is a normal Python package. You can download the archive from PyPi , but it is easier to install using pip where is is available, for example:
pip install pyinstaller
or upgrade to a newer version:
pip install --upgrade pyinstaller
To install the current development version use:
pip install https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/tarball/develop
For Windows, PyWin32 or the more recent pypiwin32 , is a prerequisite. The latter is installed automatically when you install PyInstaller 使用 pip or easy_install . If necessary, follow the pypiwin32 link to install it manually.
It is particularly easy to use pip-Win to install PyInstaller along with the correct version of PyWin32 . pip-Win 还提供 virtualenv , which makes it simple to maintain multiple different Python interpreters and install packages such as PyInstaller in each of them. (For more on the uses of virtualenv, see 支持多种平台 below.)
When pip-Win is working, enter this command in its Command field and click Run:
venv -c -i pyi-env-name
This creates a new virtual environment rooted at
C:\Python\pyi-env-name
and makes it the current environment. A new command shell window opens in which you can run commands within this environment. Enter the command
pip install PyInstaller
Once it is installed, to use PyInstaller ,
venv
pyi-env-name
Then you have a command shell window in which commands such as pyinstaller execute in that Python environment.
PyInstaller works with the default Python 2.7 provided with current Mac OS X installations. However, if you plan to use a later version of Python, or if you use any of the major packages such as PyQt, Numpy, Matplotlib, Scipy, and the like, we strongly recommend that you install these using either MacPorts or Homebrew .
PyInstaller users report fewer problems when they use a package manager than when they attempt to install major packages individually.
If pip is not available, download the compressed archive from PyPI . If you are asked to test a problem using the latest development code, download the compressed archive from the develop branch of PyInstaller Downloads 页面。
Expand the archive. Inside is a script named
setup.py
. Execute
python
setup.py
安装
with administrator privilege to install or upgrade
PyInstaller
.
For platforms other than Windows, GNU/Linux and Mac OS, you must first build a bootloader program for your platform: see
构建引导程序
. After the bootloader has been created, use
python
setup.py
安装
with administrator privileges to complete the installation.
On all platforms, the command
pyinstaller
should now exist on the execution path. To verify this, enter the command:
pyinstaller --version
The result should resemble
3.n
for a released version, and
3.n.dev0-xxxxxx
for a development branch.
If the command is not found, make sure the execution path includes the proper directory:
C:\PythonXY\Scripts
where
XY
stands for the
major and minor Python version number,
for example
C:\Python34\Scripts
for Python 3.4)
/usr/bin/
/usr/bin
/usr/local/bin
/opt/local/bin
To display the current path in Windows the command is
echo
%path%
and in other systems,
echo
$PATH
.
The complete installation places these commands on the execution path:
pyinstaller
is the main command to build a bundled application.

pyi-makespec

If you do not perform a complete installation (installing via
pip
or executing
setup.py
), these commands will not be installed as commands. However, you can still execute all the functions documented below by running Python scripts found in the distribution folder. The equivalent of the
pyinstaller
command is
pyinstaller-folder
/pyinstaller.py
. The other commands are found in
pyinstaller-folder
/cliutils/
with meaningful names (
makespec.py
