Building¶

The tool building is based on the pyInstaller

Windows¶

1. Install Python 3.* interpreter from here
2. Install PyWin32 from here
3. Get pip-Win Python package manager from here and run it.
4. In the pip-Win Command field enter the following:
   

   venv -c -i  pyi-env-name
   

   
   then click Run.
   This creates a new virtual environment rooted at C:\Python\pyi-env-name and makes it the current environment. A new command shell window opens in which you can run commands within this environment. Enter the command:
   

   pip3 install PyInstaller
   

5. Once pyInstaller is installed, start pip-Win, in the Command field enter the following:
   

   venv pyi-env-name
   

   
   then click Run.
6. Go to the tool sources folder.
7. Run the following command:
   

   pyinstaller traceutils\trace_matcher.py -n traceutils --add-data="LICENSE;." --add-data="README;." -p="traceutils;traceutils\record" -d
   

8. Go to the dist subdirectory and zip the result.

Linux¶

1. Get pip installation script from here and install it:
   

   $ sudo apt install curl
   $ curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py -o get-pip.py
   

2. Run the pip installation script as follows:
   

   sudo python3 get-pip.py
   

3. Install pyInstaller as follows:
   

   pip3 install PyInstaller
   

4. Go to the traceutils project folder.
5. Run the following command:
   

   pyinstaller src/traceutils/trace_matcher.py --distpath ./build/target -n traceutils --add-data 'LICENSE:.' --add-data 'README.md:.' --add-data 'ChangeLog.md:.' -p 'src/traceutils/:src/traceutils/record/'
   

6. Go to the build/target subdirectory and zip the result.
