Build Python Script To Executable File For Windows/MacOS/Linux


Answer :

This tutorial will show you how to convert Python to exe using PyInstaller.

Make sure you have Python installed #

The first thing is, of course, you have to install Python. Please don't forget to add Python to your PATH environment.

Install Pyinstaller #

Open your command promt/terminal and execute the command to install PyInstaller

pip install Pyinstaller

Build Python script to executable binary file #

Let say we have a very simple Python script that just print the Hello world text to the console. This file name is "test.py"

test.py:

 print("Hello world")

To build that Python to exe we can use Pyinstaller which was installed in previous step

pyinstaller --onefile test.py

By running above command, PyInstaller will build our Python script to executable file: test.exe. Depend on where you run that command (Windows, MacOS or Linux), the executable file will be runnable for corresponding platform. It mean, if you are using Windows and running that command, it can be run in Windows but not in MacOS or Linux. Similar, if you run that command in MacOS, it can be run in Mac but not in Windows/Linux.

Add icon to the exe file #

Pyinstaller allows us adding the icon to the executable file. To do so, just add the --icon options

For example:

pyinstaller --onefile --icon=path_to_icon.ico test.py

If you are building the GUI app and want to build it to executable file. You can do the same command as above. However, besides the GUI window, it also displays the console window. To eliminate the console window, we can use the --windowed option.

For example:

pyinstaller --onefile --windowed --icon=path_to_icon.ico test.py

Converting A String To Int In Groovy

Answer : Use the toInteger() method to convert a String to an Integer , e.g. int value = "99".toInteger() An alternative, which avoids using a deprecated method (see below) is int value = "66" as Integer If you need to check whether the String can be converted before performing the conversion, use String number = "66" if (number.isInteger()) { int value = number as Integer } Deprecation Update In recent versions of Groovy one of the toInteger() methods has been deprecated. The following is taken from org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.StringGroovyMethods in Groovy 2.4.4 /** * Parse a CharSequence into an Integer * * @param self a CharSequence * @return an Integer * @since 1.8.2 */ public static Integer toInteger(CharSequence self) { return Integer.valueOf(self.toString().trim()); } /** * @deprecated Use the CharSequence version * @see #toInteger(CharSequence) */ @Deprecated public static Integer toInteger(String self) { return toInteg

"Cannot Create Cache Directory /home//.composer/cache/repo/https---packagist.org/, Or Directory Is Not Writable. Proceeding Without Cache"

Answer : if anyone pass through here, this is shorter solution: sudo chown -R $USER $HOME/.composer it seems to me the group information is missing in your command sudo chown -R <user> /home/<user>/.composer/cache/repo/https---packagist.org Shoud be sudo chown -R <user>:<group> /home/<user>/.composer/cache/repo/https---packagist.org But to avoid other permission issues, I would rather advise: sudo chown -R <user>:<group> /home/<user>/.composer/cache (you'll need access to other folders in there) and sudo chown <user>:<group> /home/<user>/.composer To make sure your user has permissions enough on the global composer folder. Mind the missing recursion so the user don't own keys created by root. If you need to find out the group: groups <user>

Android How Can I Convert A String To A Editable

Answer : As you probably found out, Editable is an interface so you cannot call new Editable() . However an Editable is nothing more than a String with Spannables, so use SpannableStringBuilder: Editable editable = new SpannableStringBuilder("Pass a string here"); If you only want to change the Spannables, never the text itself, you can use a basic SpannableString. Use Editable.Factory.getInstance().newEditable(str) From the android documentation: Returns a new SpannedStringBuilder from the specified CharSequence. You can override this to provide a different kind of Spanned.
