Hi, I would like to freeze a numpy based script in order to have an application which could run without having to install numpy and cie.
Indeed, I'm not root on the targeted computer and I can't easily make a complete install of numpy and scipy. So I decided to test the freeze.py tool shipped with python2.5. To complicate matters, I must say that I only have a local installation of python2.5 and numpy. I used the following command line : > python2.5 ../Python-2.5.1/Tools/freeze/freeze.py ~/Python/numpy/test_freeze.py At first sight, it seems to be fine, as I saw numpy in the liste of frozen dependancies : [...] freezing numpy ... freezing numpy.__config__ ... freezing numpy._import_tools ... freezing numpy.add_newdocs ... freezing numpy.core ... freezing numpy.core._internal ... freezing numpy.core.arrayprint ... freezing numpy.core.defchararray ... freezing numpy.core.defmatrix ... freezing numpy.core.fromnumeric ... freezing numpy.core.info ... freezing numpy.core.memmap ... freezing numpy.core.numeric ... freezing numpy.core.numerictypes ... freezing numpy.core.records ... freezing numpy.ctypeslib ... [...] freezing numpy.version ... But at the end I saw this message : Warning: unknown modules remain: _bisect _csv _ctypes _curses _hashlib _heapq [...] numpy.core._dotblas numpy.core._sort numpy.core.multiarray numpy.core.scalarmath numpy.core.umath numpy.fft.fftpack_lite numpy.lib._compiled_base numpy.linalg.lapack_lite numpy.random.mtrand operator parser pyexpat readline [...] Now run "make" to build the target: test_weibull I runned make without any problem but the final application didn't work : % ./test_freeze Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/loic/Python/numpy/test_freeze.py", line 8, in <module> import numpy as np [...] File "/home/loic/tmp/bluelagoon/lib/python2.5/site-packages/numpy/ core/__init__.py", line 5, in <module> import multiarray ImportError: No module named multiarray Is there any known issue when freezing a numpy based script ? I should add that I configured my PYTHONPATH to match my local installation > echo $PYTHONPATH /home/loic/lib/python:/home/loic/tmp/bluelagoon/lib/python2.5:/home/ loic/tmp/bluelagoon/lib/python2.5/site-packages/: and this local installation work fine : > python2.5 -c 'import numpy; print numpy.__version__; import > numpy.core.multiarray; print "no pb"' 1.2.0b2 no pb Have you got any recipe to freeze numpy based script ?
