fbs only supports Python versions 3.5 and 3.6 bash python3 -m venv fbsenv Once created, activate the virtual environment by running from the command line - bash # On Mac/Linux: source fbsenv/bin/activate # On Windows: call fbsenv\scripts\activate.bat Finally, install the required libraries. You can install these in a virtual environment (or your applications virtual environment) to keep your environment clean. The only other requirement is PyInstaller which handles the packaging itself. Install requirements fbs works out of the box with both PyQt PyQt5 and Qt for Python PySide2.
You can also use PyInstaller directly to package applications, see our Packaging PyQt5 & PySide2 applications for Windows, with PyInstaller tutorial. See the fbs licensing page for up-to-date information. The first path can dramatically improve your productivity, whereas the second path puts you in full control of your application’s code. For commercial (or other non-GPL) packages you must buy a commercial license. To create a GUI for your windows and dialogs in PyQt, you can take two main paths: you can use Qt Designer, or you can hand code the GUI in plain Python code.
#Fman build system for free#
This means you can use the fbs system for free in packages distributed with the GPL. For more information, please see the home page. If you're impatient, you can grab the Moonsweeper installers directly for Windows, MacOS or Linux (Ubuntu). This repository hosts the source code and issue tracker of fmans build system. If you're targeting multiple platforms with your app, it's definitely worth a look. This tutorial will take you through the steps of creating PyQt5 applications using fbs from scratch, and for converting existing projects over to the system.
The included resource API is particularly useful, simplifying the handling of external data files, images or third-party libraries - a common pain point when bundling apps. Built on top of PyInstaller it wraps some of the rough edges and defines a standard project structure which allows the build process to be entirely automated. Fbs is a cross-platform PyQt5 packaging system which supports building desktop applications for Windows, Mac and Linux (Ubuntu, Fedora and Arch).
