pyenv and PyInstaller

Note

This section is a still a draft. Please help extending it.

• clone pyenv repository:

  git clone https://github.com/yyuu/pyenv.git ~/.pyenv
  

• clone virtualenv plugin:

  git clone https://github.com/yyuu/pyenv-virtualenv.git \
            ~/.pyenv/plugins/pyenv-virtualenv
  

• add to .bashrc or .zshrc:

  # Add 'pyenv' to PATH.
  export PYENV_ROOT="$HOME/.pyenv"
  export PATH="$PYENV_ROOT/bin:$PATH"
  
  # Enable shims and autocompletion for pyenv.
  eval "$(pyenv init -)"
  # Load pyenv-virtualenv automatically by adding
  # # the following to ~/.zshrc:
  #
  eval "$(pyenv virtualenv-init -)"
  

• Install python version with shared libpython (necessary for PyInstaller to work):

  env PYTHON_CONFIGURE_OPTS="--enable-shared" pyenv install 3.5.0
  

• setup virtualenv pyenv virtualenv 3.5.0 venvname

• activate virtualenv pyenv activate venvname

• deactivate virtualenv pyenv deactivate
