import PySimpleGUIQt as sg: FAILURE: '--standalone', SUCCESS: '--follow-imports'.

Hello Kay,

I think this might be related to issue #513.

---

This works: python -m nuitka --follow-imports test.py

---

This does not work (neither of them): python -m nuitka --standalone test.py

test.py:

import PySimpleGUIQt as sg

This is on Windows 10 (64 bit):

python -m nuitka --version

0.6.6rc5
Python: 3.5.4 (v3.5.4:3f56838, Aug  8 2017, 02:17:05) [MSC v.1900 64 bit (AMD64)]
Executable: C:\Python35\python.exe
OS: Windows
Arch: x86_64

Here is how I installed the Python libraries:

pip install PySimpleGUIQt
pip install PySide2
pip install PyQt5
pip uninstall nuitka
pip install -U "https://nuitka.net/doc/factory.html"

Note: the pip install -U “https://nuitka.net/doc/factory.html” was done on 09/18/2019.

Sorry that your path seems so much like “from Dracula to the bloodletting” (as we say in German) 😃

What you need to do is specifying the right plugins when doing standalone compiles. One more time I am recommending hinted compilation, which would take over this for you.

But anyway, when using tkinter on Windows you need to do python -m nuitka --standalone --enable-plugin=tk-inter yourscript.py. This plugin will copy the required TK/TCL data directories to your dist folder in the right way.

Easily of course, you have more than just Tkinter in your script, say numpy and/or scipy and/or matplotlib, etc… So the command line quickly becomes very long and error-prone … and the resulting dist folder very large, compile times very long …

Hinted compilation will help here in many cases. Not always, I must admit.

Try this command: python -m nuitka --plugin-list.
