I'm using windows and python2.7
I've made a .py application and I'm trying to figure how to convert into an executable. I read that the package nuitka can do this
But I don't understand how to do it. Instructions are on this page http://nuitka.net/doc/user-manual.html#overview.
It says to use this: "nuitka --recurse-all program.py"
How do i use this command?
I put it into a command prompt and it said "nuitka is not defined". I opened a command prompt and entered "python" and then the code and it said "Syntax Error" I tried to import nuitka (And it did recognise it when I typed "Import Nuitka") but I still only got errors.
I think it's obvious that I haven't learnt something quite fundamental and most documentation seems to start off at a point that I am not at. Could anyone explain this?
Thank you for your time.
Ok thank you for your response. I still haven't got it working. Is the "Path" the directory that it says in the command prompt? The default being "C:\WINDOWS\system32"? I tried changing it to both "C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages" and "C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\nuitka" but neither of those worked. I also tried changing the Environment variables "PATH" to either of those. And then I tried typing PATH= either of those directly from the command prompt but I still couldn't make any progress.
Am I using PATH wrong or am I giving it the wrong directory?
ooh ok I was using the wrong directory. I searched for the nuitka --run and it was here "C:\Users*Myname*\Documents\Pythonstuff\Scripts"
Sooo.. I did "cd C:\Users*Myname*\Documents\Pythonstuff\Scripts" and then "nuitka --recurse-all program.py" into command prompt and it recognised the command but came up with a few errors. But that's almost fixed.
