How to properly compile a python program using PyQt5 using pyinstaller?

Question

Python

I tried to build the following PyQt5 program using pyinstaller:

import sys

from PyQt5.QtCore import Qt
from PyQt5.QtGui import QFont
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QApplication, QLabel

app = QApplication(sys.argv)
w = QLabel()
w.setWindowFlags(Qt.FramelessWindowHint)
w.setAttribute(Qt.WA_TranslucentBackground)
w.setText("Draw text...")
w.setFont(QFont("Times", 25, QFont.Normal))
# w.move(x, y) or center
w.adjustSize()  # update w.rect() now
w.move(app.desktop().screen().rect().center() - w.rect().center())
w.show()
sys.exit(app.exec_())

Everything seems to be going, but when I try to open the collected file, I see the following:

I wrote the following in the console:

pyinstaller --onedir --noconsole --onefile --name=myprogram "C:\Users\tutam\Desktop\Python_experiments\test_pyqt5.py"

If you put the compiled executable in the C:\Users\tutam\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35-32 folder, i.e. in the same folder with the qt.conf file, which contains the paths to pyqt, then everything works fine. But then it is necessary for the user to have pyqt, i.e. is it not a standalone executable?
Has anyone encountered something similar? How did you win?

Answer 1

Here is a link on how to correctly assemble the application, one EXE file works without problems.
Problem pyinstaller Pyqt5 add background.
this means incompatibility between PyQt5 and Python. or something else, it doesn't matter.
The solution is to tear down PyQt5 and install like this:

pip install pyqt5

pip install pyqt5-tools

By the way, PySide2 will be released soon)

Answer 2

Here it is from an article on Habré https://habr.com/post/325626/:
The most commonly used options are:
--onefile - assembly into one file, i. .dll files are not written.
--windowed - when the application starts, the console will appear.
--noconsole - when the application starts, the console will not appear.
--icon=app.ico - add an icon to the window.
--paths - the ability to manually enter the path to the necessary files if pyinstaller
cannot find them (for example: --paths D:\python35\Lib\site-packages\PyQt5\Qt\bin)

At most to collect in a uniform file it did not turn out. If you do not write during assembly --onefile, i.e. not to collect into a single file, then you need to move qwindows.dllfrom dist\PyQt5\Qt\plugins\platforms\qwindows.dllto dist\platforms\qwindows.dll.
