Does any way to keep the NSIS script?

So I can add some script I want to, like add icon or adjust compress option.
Then build myself.

Looks like work fine with python3.7

tested in Mac, it looks fine.

How to set icon to installer?

I am developing an app on windows.
I am already check the tutorial of fbs.
But I still don't know how to set my own icon to app installer.

Thanks

Question: support multiple applications out of the box?

I'm sometimes a little confused on whether to set up an issue in fbs or here, in fbs-tutorial... 😉 but here goes...

So I'm dabbling with setting up "secondary" applications such as a cmdline.exe next to my main Tutorial.exe. Right now, I need to use a custom build.py script to have this secondary application become frozen.
-- By the way; Perhaps it's unwise to refer to such applications as "secondary", as their functionality may be essential to the primary application.

@mherrmann do you think it would be worthwile to support multiple applications out of the box?
I'm thinking being able to specify which one to run on python -m fbs run, freeze all of them on python -m fbs freeze and so on.

I love the simplicity and straight-forwardness of fbs-tutorial. This type of change would imply you need to put apps inside of a folder for the macOS installer and some other changes... which may (or may not) make the whole approach of fbs slightly more complex (and hopefully not unreliable). I totally respect and understand if you feel that catering to use cases like this would make the code (or reliability) unnecessarily complex, even if I personally believe that being able to bundle more than one application isn't really such an edge case.

It's just a thought, would be interested to hear what you think about it. 😄

Using Qt.py instead of PyQt5 import

Hi again!

When I freeze my fbs-tutorial, it works great -- even when I use PySide2. 😄

However, I would like to actually use Qt.py in my source code, and then let Qt.py decide whether to pick up PySide2, PyQt5 or any other binding available. I realize this doesn't make sense in most use cases when producing a standalone app, but in my case, I wish some of my code base to be shared among different applications (including the case where the code is being executed in a PySide(1) environment).

When I use from Qt import QtWidgets in application_context.py, I can successfully python -m fbs run and python -m fbs freeze, but when I try to run my standalone app, it b0rks with the following and exits:

I am aware of that the issue is most likely on the Qt.py end (and/or possibly with PyInstaller) and perhaps not so much with fbs, but I'm trying to figure out what I could possibly do to fix this -- and so I'm posting this issue to just see if you have any ideas on where I should start looking for clues...

I've switched the fbs freeze/PyInstaller log level to INFO but the logs are identical when I freeze with PySide2 and with Qt.py. I've then moved on to check the target/PyInstaller/Tutorial/warnTutorial.txt but it doesn't say anything useful in terms of being unable to pick something specific up which seems related to my issue.

When I watch the target/Tutorial folder being built, I can see that the PyQt5 DLLs are being put there successfully, just like when using PyQt5 (and not Qt.py).

pyinstaller not found when freeze

I have pip install all the requirements and even pip install pyinstaller alone one more time just to make sure it is installed.
I did python3.5 -m pip install pyinstaller, it gives:

Migrate existing project from fbs<0.2.0

I have an exising project using fbs.

I recently tried updating the requirements, and noticed that it fails to build for fbs version >= 0.2.0:

Is there any guide for migrating an existing project to latest fbs version?

fbs freeze error: FileNotFoundError: Could not find msvcr110.dll on your PATH.

Hi,
I've being using fbs with python 3.6 to create an executable. After running the command fbs freeze this error came out to me. Even if I have installed Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2012, the same result persists.
If someone could help me it would be really nice. Thanks you

Trying to freeze the tutorial app but stuck at fbs freeze

Dear all,

I am trying to take the tutorial, however I am stuck at fbs freeze, where I get the following error code:

Perhaps it's noteworthy, but I am working on Win 10, and have installed PyQt5==5.12.2 rather than PyQt5==5.9.2

KeyError: 'public_settings'

This is what happened when I executed fbs run:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/Users/charleslure/src/main/python/main.py", line 313, in
appctxt = ApplicationContext()
File "/Users/charleslure/src/main/python/fbs_runtime/application_context/init.py", line 31, in init

File "/Users/charleslure/src/main/python/fbs_runtime/_fbs.py", line 27, in filter_public_settings
return {k: settings[k] for k in settings['public_settings']}
KeyError: 'public_settings'

It gets solved somehow and I guess I shouldn't use ApplicationContext (imported from fbs_runtime.application_context.PyQt5) after the [ if name == "main": ]. The ApplicationContext is in the file PyQt.py which is in this path: /Users/thisisme/venv/lib/python3.7/site-packages/fbs_runtime/application_context/PyQt5.py

------------------------ update ------------------------

No matter how much you want to use PyCharm, note that the folder /Users/thisisme/venv is only available for fbs, which requires fbs to run the scripts in this path on its own: /Users/thisisme/venv/lib/python3.7/site-packages/fbs_runtime

So, DO NOT copy this folder into the /Users/thisisme/src/main/python3.7. REPEAT: DON'T DO IT

How would I include other files in the installer/executeable?

Is there a correct way to include other files/directories when building the installer/executable directory?

Something error But I can't solve it.

Organizing parts of a large application

Hi again @mherrmann!

In src/main/python, it seems like the intention is we can add multiple folders here in case our application is made out of multiple packages/parts. I've noticed that the tutorial example can import anything which resides here (very nice!) when running using python -m fbs run.

For example, I've got an application I'm experimenting with, which I might want to "fbs-ify" which is separated into many parts. Trying to simplify, here's an example of what my app could be made out of:

1. Base app UI
2. Models and modules (callable from UI or headlessly)
3. Sub-apps (QMainWindow or QWidget based Python MVC-style UIs launched from the base UI)

I'm thinking I could organize them in fbs by placing each "part" in a subfolder under src/main/python, as they could then be imported via a simple "import part" statement. However, I'm noticing that they won't get included in the app bundle when freezing (on Windows).

To make a frozen app work, I have to place a copy of everything in the "resources" folder prior to the freeze, and it will successfully get bundled with the standalone app. So I'm starting to wonder how I should plan the file structure when using fbs... I don't want to put the same file in two locations so to speak.

What would you advise I do here?

My goal is to be able to have the standalone fbs application be able to import a certain module, but also allow for a headless way of importing the same module (meaning using Python).

EDIT: A very simple example is to just add an extrafile.py next to the tutorial's main.py and import this file in main.py. This will work fine with python -m fbs run but the extrafile.py file will not be included with the standalone app when performing a python -m fbs run, and thus the standalone app will crash.

Codesigning and Notarizing fbs built .app bundles

I have been working on notarizing a fbs generated .app bundle. I know fbs currently does not support code signing and notarization, but I would be happy to post what I've learned; and various steps and fixes along the way if it would help integrate these features at some point. I currently have my application codesigned, and am working on the notarization process.

I'm not sure where the appropriate place to put that information would be; hence opening the issue and seeing what you would prefer.

Thanks again for making this awesome package.

I have an issue deploying a tensorflow contained exe

Fbs is working properly, and python -m fbs run is also working for my main script, but when I freeze the model , there are many warnings and when I run the exe file in target then it shows failed to execute script main

I am having the following error

Translations into other languages

Qt and PyQT offer extensive functionality for translation or internationalisation of applications, see e.g.:

https://www.riverbankcomputing.com/static/Docs/PyQt5/i18n.html

I was wondering if a conclusion has been reached yet regarding how best to implement translation of apps in fbs?

Many thanks in advance.

Your Bundle ID is Empty - FBS startproject error

Bug: Your Bundle ID is empty.
I checked Apple Developer Center and I installed each of my certificates in the right way.
This bug happened during the fbs startproject
and I checked the plist.info and tried everything I googled.

During fbs startproject
Add ID Bundle was asked and I provided it correctly.
I guess it's because this id was not added to the app.

readme.md // download link outdated

The download link in the readme.md seems to be incorrect/outdated. In this zip, there is no requirements.txt, no src folder, just a plain main.py. I guess this is not intended and should rather point to the current version of the tutorial? I don't know how to link to the latest version without releases, elsewise I would change it directly.

...
on second thought, the whole tutorial seems to be outdated and non-functional? requirements.txt requires fbs==0.1.0 instead of 0.9.0? main.py inside main/python/tutorial imports tutorial.application_context, so it should rather be in main/python...? I am confused.

Problem with Tensorflow and PyTorch packaging with FBS

I am trying to build a binary executable file out of my trained neural network which used either Tensorflow or Pytorch.

But FBS fails to build a package around it and it can not fit the trained model file in .pth format for instance for PyTorch into the .DEB file.

PySide2 example

Is it possible to add an pyside2 example or add a reference of any pyside2 project that uses fbs ?

windows doc yupdate

On a fresh installation of windows 7 on virtual box, I did 2 things more not explained in your tutorial.

fbs freeze 
==> ImportError: No module named win32com.client
pip install pypiwin32    

fbs freeze

fbs freeze  
===> Works ! 

two minor improvements

• would be good to note beforehand you need to install pip install wheel.
• same goes for ruby, ruby-gem and npm. I had to install it system-wide - actually would be nice to have this installed locally only!

Thanks, otherwise great tut!

AppImage Support for Linux

There is no support for Linux when creating an installer. If you have a DMG installer for MacOS it might be easy to create an AppImage for Linux as well.

Tutorial app crashes with Python3.7 / macOS 10.13.5

Following the tutorial verbatim works fine until an .app is created, which crashes on launch.

python3 -m fbs run works fine though.

Freeze fails with Python3.6

I know you said only Python3.5 is supported but I just wanted to let you know that I tried on Windows with Python3.6 and got this error.

Frozen App Crushes: No module named 'fbs_runtime' & images not included during fbs run & .ini QSettings dead

MacOS 10.15.5
PyQt 5.14.0
PyCharm 2019.3.4

Everything was absolutely fine BUT:

When I execute fbs run, the app is abnormal:
1, the QSetting files in .ini format won't work (the GUI won't interactive with it)
2, the DB files acted in the same way
3, the images of my app failed to load

When the app is frozen:
1, app crushes when clicked;
2, when running the app in the terminal:
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'fbs_runtime'
[7046] Failed to execute script fbs_pyinstaller_hook
logout

------------- Update -------------

Follow the link below and this issue can be solved. (But the .ini file issues are not included)
Make sure all your resources (such as .db files, images, etc...but not necessarily including the .py files you created and imported) are copied into the path: src/main/resources/base, instead of any other paths! No matter whether your resources are single files or files in folders.
Just one thing: I wish that fbs can not only locate resources, but also folders. But this small issue can be avoided while programming. It just makes the processing of using .ini files related to GUI a little bit time consuming.

Do you consider providing a GUI App so that things can be even easier?
I do consider giving it a try when I'm free.

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/61311076/deploying-pyqt5-using-fbs-with-a-sqlite-database

------------- Update -------------

Still working on the .ini files. Hope they can work normally.

Guidance for Properly Logging

It would be good if the tutorial provided some guidance on how to setup logging, especially for macOS, where the logger FileHandler only takes relative paths, and thus attempts to write in a read-only portion of the app bundle.

On Linux, the logging.handlers.FileHandler appeared to work fine (wrote to the user home directory if I remember right), I have not tested on Windows.

Thanks for the awesome package!

Login screen before actually starting main application?

If the main application requires a login/authorization phase, and I wish to show this before actually showing my main application, what would you advise I do?

Should I call a modal dialog window from my application_context.py's run function which would stop and wait for a successful logon before continuing with showing the main application?

Is there any way to directly produce windows .exe installation files under Ubuntu?

Fbs works great under my Ubuntu! It can generate .deb installation files!
But I don't want to install a virtual machine. How can fbs produce .exe installation files under Ubuntu?

Thank you for making us get .deb easy!

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] Could not locate resource

HI I am new to fbs and PyQt
It is very nice tool to generate the executable. I like this very much, Very thankful to your time and effort

I placed the UI file in path "src/main/icons/resources/test.ui"

and call UI in code like
appctxt.get_resource("resources/test.ui")

while I run fbs run, it executes like a charm.
After I create the installer I got the error like
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] Could not locate resource

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] Could not locate resource: 'resources/test.ui'
[26071] Failed to execute script main

The installer does not consider those files while generating the execution. is i need to mention those files? please guide me

Your App's Bundle ID is Empty

System: MacOS 0.15.5

Everything was okay but...oops

I followed every step according to the Apple Developer's website
Created an App ID, installed certificates and everything
But When I used Transporter to upload the .apk file it shows this:

Your App's Bundle ID is Empty

If I use Application Loader instead, the error is:

You must supply a CFBundleIdentifier for this request.

I googled it and checked the info.plist.
Bundle OS Type code's key and value are both alright...
Strange thing is, even the .spec file has made everything correct about bundle id.

Hmm could you tell what is going on?
Do I have to re-install or recreate an App ID or re-project it?

@mherrmann One more step and I can upload my app! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!

fbs run (and freeze) fails with anaconda

Hi,

On my windows installation I use anaconda with python3.6 for my GUI, which fails when trying to run fbs run, and subsequently when trying to run fbs freeze. The error messages are:
fbs run:
Traceback (most recent call last): File "c:\users\wouter\anaconda3\lib\runpy.py", line 193, in _run_module_as_main "__main__", mod_spec) File "c:\users\wouter\anaconda3\lib\runpy.py", line 85, in _run_code exec(code, run_globals) File "C:\Users\Wouter\Anaconda3\Scripts\fbs.exe\__main__.py", line 9, in <module> File "c:\users\wouter\anaconda3\lib\site-packages\fbs\__main__.py", line 17, in _main fbs.cmdline.main() File "c:\users\wouter\anaconda3\lib\site-packages\fbs\cmdline.py", line 32, in main fn(*args) File "c:\users\wouter\anaconda3\lib\site-packages\fbs\builtin_commands\__init__.py", line 93, in run subprocess.run([sys.executable, path(SETTINGS['main_module'])], env=env) KeyError: 'main_module'

fbs freeze:

I had some issues with Anaconda before, with a missing python3.dll file, but that is resolved now. I cannot use a different python version, and I highly prefer to use anaconda since it makes the installation of cartopy easier, which I need. Do you have a suggestion on how to proceed?

Kind regards

Tutorial fails with Missing DLLs

Trying the tutorial it fails for me on Win10 at python -m fbs freeze. I get a lot of warnings:
15655 WARNING: lib not found: api-ms-win-crt-*
and then a failure with:
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'c:\\Windows\\System32\\api-ms-win-crt-multibyte-l1-1-0.dll'

Any suggestions what to look for to fix this?

Structuring main app as submodule

Hello!

The fbs-tutorial is a nice way to explain how fbs works. I'm now thinking about how I can structure my app(s) around fbs-tutorial.

Say I want to develop my app using git. How would I reap the benefits of future fbs-tutorial updates?
Let's say, for example, that I develop my own app as a git submodule of fbs-tutorial (or the other way around; having fbs-tutorial as a submodule of my app).

Today, it feels quite fine to manually track updates to fbs-tutorial, like the recent change where the NSIS settings were moved. But down the line, changes may get harder to track.

Before I propose any suggestions on app layout, @mherrmann what would you recommend?

How to modify NSIS settings?

Where should I modify the NSIS settings used when performing a python -m fbs installer?

For example, I'd like to change the default install path from C:\Program Files (x86)\Tutorial to C:\Program Files\Tutorial, since my Python app is 64-bit.
