How to create an stand-alone executable from Python code using Pyomo?

[Ryan D]

I have a single program consisting of 10 Python (v3.6) files total that I need to create an executable from.  But when I tried using PyInstaller and Py2exe I got errors due to Pyomo not being a supported package.  Which programs will allow me to create an executable?

Hi Ryan, 

I'm also trying to do the same but I couldn't. Could you solve it? 

Thanks

Ok guys. I solved it, 

I could only make it work with CBC optimizer. Pyinstaller cannot import pyomo modules by itself so I had to rely in a Spaguetti command to import them all. 

If someone knows how to make a .spec file so this is easier please let us know in this thread. 

Here it goes: 

pyinstaller --hidden-import=numbers --hidden-import=pyutilib --hidden-import=pyutilib.component.config --hidden-import=pyomo --hidden-import=pyomo.environ --hidden-import=pyutilib.component.app --hidden-import=pyutilib.common --hidden-import=pyutilib.component.executables --hidden-import=pyutilib.component.loader --hidden-import=pyutilib.dev --hidden-import=pyutilib.dev --hidden-import=pyutilib.enum --hidden-import=pyutilib.math --hidden-import=pyutilib.misc --hidden-import=pyutilib.ply --hidden-import=pyutilib.pyro --hidden-import=pyutilib.R --hidden-import=pyutilib.services --hidden-import=pyutilib.subprocess --hidden-import=pyutilib.svn --hidden-import=pyutilib.th --hidden-import=pyutilib.virtualenv --hidden-import=pyutilib.workflow --hidden-import=pyomo.age --hidden-import=pyomo.bilevel --hidden-import=pyomo.bilevel.plugins --hidden-import=pyomo.core --hidden-import=pyomo.core.plugins --hidden-import=pyomo.dae --hidden-import=pyomo.dae.plugins --hidden-import=pyomo.gdp --hidden-import=pyomo.gdp.plugins --hidden-import=pyomo.neos --hidden-import=pyomo.neos.plugins --hidden-import=pyomo.opt --hidden-import=pyomo.opt.plugins  --hidden-import=pyomo.pysp --hidden-import=pyomo.pysp.plugins --hidden-import=pyomo.solvers.plugins --hidden-import=pyomo.solvers --hidden-import=pyomo.checker --hidden-import=pyomo.checker.plugins --hidden-import=pyomo.contrib --hidden-import=pyomo.contrib.plugins --hidden-import=pyomo.dataportal --hidden-import=pyomo.dataportal.plugins --hidden-import=pyomo.duality --hidden-import=pyomo.duality.plugins --hidden-import=pyomo.kernel --hidden-import=pyomo.kernel.plugins --hidden-import=pyomo.mpec --hidden-import=pyomo.mpec.plugins --hidden-import=pyomo.network --hidden-import=pyomo.network.plugins --hidden-import=pyomo.repn --hidden-import=pyomo.repn.plugins --hidden-import=pyomo.scripting --hidden-import=pyomo.scripting.plugins --hidden-import=pyomo.util --hidden-import=pyomo.util.plugins --hidden-import=pyomo.common --hidden-import=pyomo.common.plugins --hidden-import=sys --hidden-import=logging --hidden-import=re --hidden-import=sys --hidden-import=pyutilib.services --hidden-import=pyomo.core.expr.numvalue --hidden-import=pyomo.core.expr.numvalue --hidden-import=pyomo.solvers.plugins.solvers.direct_solver --hidden-import=pyomo.solvers.plugins.solvers.direct_or_persistent_solver --hidden-import=pyomo.core.kernel.component_set --hidden-import=pyomo.core.kernel.component_map --hidden-import=pyomo.opt.results.results_ --hidden-import=pyomo.opt.results.solution --hidden-import=pyomo.opt.results.solver --hidden-import=pyomo.opt.base --hidden-import=pyomo.core.base.suffix --hidden-import=pyomo.core.base.var --hidden-import=pyomo.core.base.PyomoModel --hidden-import=pyomo.solvers.plugins.solvers.persistent_solver --hidden-import=pyomo.opt.base.problem --hidden-import=pyomo.opt.base.convert --hidden-import=pyomo.opt.base.formats --hidden-import=pyomo.opt.base.results  --hidden-import=pyomo.core.base.block --hidden-import=pyomo.core.kernel.block --hidden-import=pyomo.core.kernel.suffix hidden-import=pyomo.solvers.plugins.solvers.CBCplugin -F --onefile test.py

Where test.py contains both the abstract and the concrete model of an optimization problem. 

Cheers

I'm having the same problem and could not find any correct answer.

I've tried your suggestion but didn't work. Is there a way to debug which packages needs to be imported manually? or you just put them all?

[Alfaima Solano]

In the last hidden '--' is missing. The code should work properly. I tried to guess the strict necessary packages but I had to import all. Also note that this is not possible with commercial solvers.

Hi Ryan, 

The complete code would be

I fixed it because it had an error at the end of the string.
