I am trying to run orange (forked as orange3-master and downloaded from https://github.com/biolab/orange3) with the following script run.py:

if __name__ == '__main__':
    import os
    os.chdir('orange3-master/Orange/canvas')
    os.system('python __main__.py')

where in Anaconda prompt, running python run.py allows me to open up orange.

Now, as using PyInstaller to make orange into a standalone program seems quite an impossible feat for me at the moment, I tried the following:

  1. Run pyinstaller run.py.
  2. In dist/run/ (the output folder of pyinstaller), copy over orange3-master into the same directory as run.exe, then run run.exe.

However, it does not seem to work as running run.exe, the window closes in a split second, and I am unable to observe any error messages.

Some insights and recommendations will be of great help...

  • Orange3 already has the executives posted on their website for Windows, and OSX. If you still need to do create an executive with pyinstaller, I would look to see you are not missing any hidden imports. Commented Oct 31, 2019 at 6:14
  • Here is the build bash script for Windows, and here is the build bash script for OSX. Commented Oct 31, 2019 at 6:16
  • @FelipeFaria Thanks for the feedback. I'll let you know in a bit once I have tried your suggestion, whether it is successful or not :) Commented Oct 31, 2019 at 8:17
  • @FelipeFaria I can't seem to run the bash script.. Upon clicking on it to run, as soon as the window opens, it closes. Am I doing it wrongly? Also does executing this bash script output a standalone executable version of Orange3? Thanks! Commented Oct 31, 2019 at 8:35
  • Well, you could just download the .dmg or .exe from the first link I sent, I think (and assume) that would make the most sense for you. If you are trying to make a modification and build from source, make sure you run the .sh file from Terminal. Commented Nov 1, 2019 at 2:16
