Running from Source¶
Rednex Demo V 0 1 Mac Os X
The pyupdater-wx-demo repositoryprovides a demo of a self-updating wxPython application,using PyUpdater, which is built on top ofPyInstaller.
To transfer content using Smart Switch for Mac, you will need: 1) A Samsung mobile device with Android OS version 4.3 or later 2) An old device that meets one of the following requirements.
PyUpdater’s command line interface is described here: http://www.pyupdater.org/usage-cli/
Let’s try running pyupdater-wx-demo’s run.py script:
After running pyupdaterinit
(described below), we can launch thewxPython demo application:
In order to make update(s) available, we need to run pyupdaterbuild
and pyupdaterpkg
(see http://www.pyupdater.org/usage-cli/), afterinitializing a “keypack” (http://www.pyupdater.org/commands/#keys) whichis used to sign the updates. Once the update(s) have been made available,we can run the demo again:
If we are running pythonrun.py
, rather than a frozen run.exe
or PyUpdaterWxDemo.exe
binary, then PyUpdater cannot restart theapplication when it finds a newer version available.
Initializing PyUpdater Configuration¶
To build and sign frozen versions of the demo (PyUpdaterWxDemo.exe
versions 0.0.1 and 0.0.2), we will use pyupdaterbuild
andpyupdaterpkg
, but first we need to initialize the PyUpdaterconfiguration for our repository and create a keypack.pyu
(for signingpackages) and import the keypack into our PyUpdater configuration.
We will run pyupdaterinit
from within the pyupdater-wx-demo/
repository folder to initialize the PyUpdater configuration:
The pyupdaterinit
command creates client_config.py
and a.pyupdater/config.pyu
JSON configuration file, and a pyu-data/
folder, which will be used to store packages of the binary builds. For thisdemo, the URL of our Flask file server will varydepending on what port is available, so we just entered a placeholder URL fornow (http://www.example.com).
If you want to remove the data in .pyupdater/
, you can run pyupdaterclean
.
To create a keypack.pyu
:
WARNING: The keypack contains a private key which should be kept SECRET!
The keypack is saved in JSON format and uses the .pyu extension (for PyUpdater).
To import the keypack into your PyUpdater configuration,
You should now DELETE the private keypack.pyu from your repository directory,after saving it in a safe place.
Building standalone EXEs with PyUpdater¶
Rednex Demo V 0 1 Mac Os Catalina
We can now build and sign frozen builds of the demo app.
To build v0.0.1,
The “new” folder is pyu-data/new/
.
PyUpdater is based on PyInstaller, so most ofthe pyupdater
command line tools acceptPyInstaller’s command-line argumentsOn Windows, we are using --console
(rather than --windowed
), so we canaccess the frozen application’s STDOUT / STDERR in a Command Prompt window.On Mac OS X, --windowed
should be used to build an app bundle, to avoid wxPython’sThisprogramneedsaccesstothescreen
error.
in addition to PyUpdater’s command-line arguments.The SocketServer module (used by werkzeug, which is used by Flask)doesn’t seem to get detected automatically by PyInstaller (observedon Windows), so we added this as a hidden import when running pyupdaterbuild
.
To package and sign v0.0.1,
The signed PyUpdaterWxDemo-win-0.0.1.zip
package is now available inyour pyu-data/deploy/
folder.
Now let’s build v0.0.2, so we can test the ability of the frozen demoapp to recognize that an update is available.
First, we need to increment the version in wxupdatedemo/__init__.py
from __version__=0.0.1
to __version__=0.0.2
.
Now we can build and sign PyUpdaterWxDemo-win-0.0.2.zip as follows:
The pyu-data/deploy/
folder now contains:
The PyUpdaterWxDemo-win-2
file (only 191 bytes in this case) is a patchfile, generated by pyupdaterpkg--process--sign
, using thebsdiff
Python module.
Running the v0.0.1 EXE with a Full Update Available to Download¶
If v0.0.1 of PyUpdaterWxDemo.exe detects that a new version (v0.0.2) isavailable, it should be able to apply a patch, if it already has a signedbinary for v0.0.1 in the application’s user data directory for the currentuser. In my case, the PyUpdaterWxDemo app’s user data directory isC:UserswettenhjAppDataLocalCompanyNamePyUpdaterWxDemoupdate
,reflecting the application name and company name I entered when runningpyupdaterinit
. If a signed binary package is not available forthe current version (v0.0.1) in that user data directory, then the fullv0.0.2 binary package will be downloaded, as illustrated in this section.
Let’s unzip PyUpdaterWxDemo-win-0.0.1.zip
and run the resultingPyUpdaterWxDemo.exe
:
The error message about the missing fileserver directory environment variableis specific to pyupdater-wx-demo. In a real application, you would specifythe URL your application will receive updates from while runningpyupdaterinit
and it would be saved in client_config.py. But forthis demo, we are running a local Flask file server to provide updates,and it needs to know the location of the updates, which ispyu-data/deploy/
. An absolute path is required for thePYUPDATER_FILESERVER_DIR
environment variable. For me it is:
C:Userswettenhjgitpyupdater-wx-demopyu-datadeploy
On Windows, you should launch a new Command Prompt window after saving theenvironment variable shown above.
Now let’s make a copy of pyu-datadeployPyUpdaterWxDemo-win-0.0.1.zip
,extract it, and run it:
PyUpdaterWxDemo.exe--debug
Because we built the EXE with PyInstaller’s --console
argument, weshould be able to see some STDOUT/STDERR in a Command Prompt window:
PyUpdaterWxDemo.exe v0.0.1 should automatically exit and launchPyUpdaterWxDemo.exe v0.0.2:
Again, because the EXE was built with --console
, we should be ableto see some STDOUT/STDERR:
This time the application has retrieved versions.gz
from the file serverand concluded that there are no available updates, i.e. we are already runningthe latest version.
Running the v0.0.1 EXE with an Already-Downloaded Update Available¶
Now let’s run PyUpdaterWxDemo.exe (extracted from PyUpdaterWxDemo-win-0.0.1.zip)again. This time, it should launch more quickly, i.e. it won’t need toredownload the v0.0.2 update - it should already be available in the user datadirectory - C:UserswettenhjAppDataLocalCompanyNamePyUpdaterWxDemoupdate
.
Running the v0.0.1 EXE with an Already-Downloaded Full Update and a Patch Update Available¶
Now that we have a signed v0.0.2 package in our user data directory -C:UserswettenhjAppDataLocalCompanyNamePyUpdaterWxDemoupdate
,if we create a v0.0.3 package, we should be able to upgrade to that version viaa patch, instead of downloading the full package.
First, we need to increment the version in wxupdatedemo/__init__.py
from __version__=0.0.2
to __version__=0.0.3
.
Now we can build and sign as before:
The pyu-data/deploy/
directory now contains:
Rednex Demo V 0 1 Mac Os Download
We can also find information in the .pyupdater/config.pyu
JSON fileabout the latest available updates and patches. Keep in mind that theversion numbers in .pyupdater/config.pyu
use two extra digits,e.g. 0.0.3.2.0
, where the ‘2’ means ‘stable’ (compared with ‘1’for ‘beta’ and ‘0’ for ‘alpha’), and the final ‘0’ is the release number.
Now let’s run PyUpdaterWxDemo.exe (extracted from PyUpdaterWxDemo-win-0.0.1.zip)again. This time, it should be able to quickly apply the latest patch to upgradefrom v0.0.2 to v0.0.3, using the existing signed v0.0.2 package in the userdata directory (C:UserswettenhjAppDataLocalCompanyNamePyUpdaterWxDemoupdate
)and the patch file downloaded from the file server:
Version Number Semantics¶
For a version like 1.3.5, ‘1’ is the major version, ‘3’ is the minor versionand ‘5’ is the patch version. When using PyUpdater, you will sometimes seetwo additional numbers at the end of the version string, e.g. “1.3.5.2.0”.The ‘2’ is used to indicate a stable release (compared with ‘1’ for a betarelease and ‘0’ for an alpha release), and the final ‘0’ is the release number.
For updates which only change the patch version (e.g. from 1.3.5 to 1.3.7), anapplication configured to use the PyUpdater client can automatically downloadthe new binary and restart itself.
Tests¶
Tests can be run with:
Troubleshooting¶
- If PyInstaller hangs while performing the operation:
See: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/40380721/pyinstaller-hangs-adding-redirect-microsoft-vc90-mfc
This issue has been observed on Windows with PyInstaller 3.2
2. In some versions of PyInstaller, sys.exit (used by run.py’sDisplayVersionAndExit) can generate a misleading ‘Failed to execute script run’message when running the frozen app. This message can usually be ignored:https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/issues/1869
Rednex Demo V 0 1 Mac Os 11
3. One of the tests may fail on Windows if running without administratorprivileges, because PyInstaller doesn’t seem to embed an appropriate manifestinto the EXE to tell the OS that privilege elevation is not required.
4. On Mac OS X, if the GUI resolution looks too low, you may wish to edit theSPEC file used by PyInstaller / PyUpdater, in particular, you may want to addNSHighResolutionCapable to the Info.plist as described here:https://pythonhosted.org/PyInstaller/spec-files.htmlUsing SPEC files with PyUpdater is described here: http://www.pyupdater.org/usage-cli/#step-6-make-spec
5. On Mac OS X, if you get wxPython’s Thisprogramneedsaccesstothescreen
error, you need to run pyupdaterbuild
with --windowed
instead of--console
to create an app bundle. You can still access the application’sSTDOUT / STDERR in your Terminal window by running the binary inside the app bundle,i.e. ./PyUpdaterWxDemo.app/Contents/MacOS/PyUpdaterWxDemo--debug
.
