To have the interface displayed in the images, you will need Chrome. If Chrome is not installed or --default-browser
is passed, the default browser will be used.

Argument | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
filename | positional/optional | Pre-fill the "Script Location" field in the UI. |
-db, --default-browser | optional | Open the UI using the default browser (which may be Chrome). Will not try to find Chrome. |
-nu, --no-ui | optional | Don't try to open the UI in a browser and simply print out the address where the application can be accessed. |
-c [CONFIG], --config [CONFIG] | optional | Provide a configuration file (JSON) to pre-fill the UI. These can be generated in the settings tab. |
-o [PATH], --output-dir [PATH] | optional | Set the default output directory. This can still be changed in the UI. |
-bdo [FOLDER_PATH], --build-directory-override [FOLDER_PATH] | optional | Override the default build directory. Useful if you need to whitelist a folder to stop your antivirus from removing files. |
-lang [LANGUAGE_CODE], --language [LANGUAGE_CODE] | optional | Hint the UI what language it should default to when opening. Language codes can be found in the table under "Translations" below. |
Instead of inserting the same data into the UI over and over again, you can export the current state by going to the "Configuration" section within the settings tab and exporting the config to a JSON file. This can then be imported into the UI again to re-populate all fields.
This JSON config export action does not save the output directory automatically as moving hosts could mean different directory structures. If you want to have the output directory in the JSON config, add the directory under nonPyinstallerOptions.outputDirectory
in the JSON file (will need to create a new key).
The examples/ directory offers some examples of how to write your scripts and package them with auto-py-to-exe.
- Basic (console application)
- No Console (as typically desired for GUI-based applications)
- Images and other non-.py files (static files to be included)
- Persistent data (like databases)
If you need something visual to help you get started, I made a video for the original release of this project; some things may be different but the same concepts still apply.

If you're having issues with the packaged executable or using this tool in general, I recommend you read my blog post on common issues when using auto-py-to-exe. This post covers things you should know about packaging Python scripts and fixes for things that commonly go wrong.

As of PyInstaller v4.0 released on Aug 9 2020, Python 2.7 is no longer supported; although you can still use this tool with Python 2.7 by installing an older version of PyInstaller. PyInstaller v3.6 was the last version that supported Python 2.7; to install this, first uninstall any existing versions of PyInstaller and then execute python -m pip install pyinstaller==3.6
