Choose Python version

[flolbr]

Is there any way to easily specify the python version that will be used by the action ?

Potentially you could pass an ARG to the base dockerfile to change the python/pyinstaller version

Souce dockerfile that is used by this project: https://hub.docker.com/r/cdrx/pyinstaller-windows

I'm not too familiar with GitHub workflows; how would one accomplish this?

[FlorianCassayre]

I'm confused as well; could you be more specific? Thanks in advance.

Yes, it is a serious issue, since action is failing because of different python versions.

Unfortunately to set the python version through an ARG would include building the new image and pushing it somewhere else (ie, docker hub), so this might be a bit tricky

The way official python dockerfiles are to be built for each and every version which is out of the scope of this project

The potential solution for this might be by running certain steps in bash to implement the different versions of Python: https://github.com/JackMcKew/pyinstaller-action-windows/issues/17
