How can I make a python script create an EXE?

[ahmed_mokhles]

Well yes I can do that but what I really want is the python code that can produce an EXE, if that is actually possible.

an exe from what? from your py file?

You can use python to call the 3rd party libs.

this is an example for cxfreeze (mysetup.py)

from cx_Freeze import setup, Executable, build
base = None
myname = "rotateVideo2"
desc = "rotateVideo2"
vers = "1.4"
executables = [Executable("/home/brian/Dokumente/python_files/rotateVideo2.py", base=base, targetName="rotateVideo2")]

build_exe_options = {"packages": ["idna"],
                                     "include_files": [],
                                     "excludes": ["PyQt4,matplotlib"],
                                     "includes": [],
                                    "optimize": 2,
                                    "build_exe": "/tmp/rotateVideo2",
                                    }

setup(
    name = "rotateVideo2",
    options = {"build_exe": build_exe_options},
    version = vers,
    description = desc,
    executables = executables
)

then i can do

python mysetup.py build

and it generates the application from my python file.

This seems to be the most relevant reply. Anyway, I don't understand what's happening in the code so I installed cx freeze and I run "python filename.py build" but it says:

Error:
ImportError: No module named 'idna'

Please can you explain what this is supposed to do and what is causing the error? Thanks
