[REJECTED] Windows standalone binary #12

Closed sergeevabc closed 7 years ago

Dear Chaitanya, Could you be so kind to generate .exe for the rest of us who use Windows only? I’m told that py2exe might help you to achieve that.

Hi @sergeevabc

I really appreciate that you found moviemon useful.

But out of curiosity, why do you want an executable for this at all? I mean its a command line python tool with pretty minimal platform dependency (and which can be easily fixed by amending the code), and for using it you can simply install it with pip or build it from source.

To be honest, I don't really understand the point of creating an executable for a command line tool.

Please let me know what you think :)

Current state of Moviemon requires Python to be installed on host machine which is a dependency itself. Other CLI gems like sysinternals, ffmpeg, jdupes, wget, pandoc, sift could be run simply from USB stick.

Hmm, I get ur point now.

But to be honest with you, I don't have much time to work on this right now, so you shouldn't expect an executable for this coming out any soon, though I would really appreciate a PR by you or someone else who is interested on working on it :smiley:

Thank you for letting me know, Chaitanya.

iCHAIT commented 7 years ago

I'll actually keep this open in case someone is interested in working on this, and so that its present under my list of to do 's for when I have time :)

Six months passed. It seems nobody is interested.
