Creating cx_Freeze exe with Numpy for Python
This is a bug in cx_Freeze - it doesn't automatically detect that it should copy the module numpy.lib.format
. It's already fixed in the development version, so if you're in a position to try that, it should work.
Otherwise, you'll need to specify that numpy.lib.format
needs to be included in your setup.py
. The line will look something like this:
options = {"build_exe": {"packages": ["numpy.lib.format"]}},
See also the documentation.
Numpy seems to be a little confusing to cx_Freeze so you need to declare it explicitly. As referenced in the docs
Here is your solution:
from cx_Freeze import setup, Executable
build_exe_options = {"packages": ["numpy"]}
setup(
name = "Assignment4_5PythonExe",
version = "0.1",
description = "Sort Methods",
options = {"build_exe": build_exe_options},
executables = [Executable("Assignment4_5.py")]
)
