Improve packaging/install process #97

Open IgnoredAmbience opened 4 years ago

IgnoredAmbience commented 4 years ago

Installation is hard for non-python developers. Find a way to improve on this.

Consider use of virtualenvs, explicit --user flag for pip, or sudo for system install for pip.

Properly package it up?

https://nuitka.net/pages/overview.html This will help? I could try to pack it tomorrow

No, I don't think that project is relevant.

https://www.pyinstaller.org/ https://pyinstaller.readthedocs.io/en/stable/operating-mode.html I think this would be perfect for what you want. The only downside is that you will need to run it on specific operating systems in order to make a build for them.
