PyDeployment

Deploy Python projects with ease.

PyDeployment provides an easy way to package Python projects on Windows, macOS, and Linux. This project is a wrapper that leverages existing software to take your project from repository to executable file. If you can run it with Python, you can deploy it with PyDeployment.

Read the User Guide to learn about installing and using PyDeployment.

How PyDeployment Works

PyDeployment uses PyInstaller to create an application directory. This created directory is then bundled into the preferred distribution method for the platform.

  • On Windows, NSIS is used to create an installer (EXE).
  • On macOS, the hdiutil command is used to create an Apple disk image (DMG).
  • On Linux, appimagetool is used to create an AppImage.

Examples

The following examples showcase build systems which utilize PyDeployment to build their applications. These examples are themselves template repositories available for use.
