Wine Pyinstaller

Compile Python 3.x scripts with Pyinstaller into 32 bit Windows executables on Ubuntu with Wine.

Build Image

By default X window display is set to X virtual frame buffer as DISPLAY=:1. Winecfg popups are not displayed, button presses are automated.

To observe build time windows on external X server:

• --build-arg DISPLAY=host.docker.internal:0
• xhost + 127.0.0.1 on host to enable connection to X11 from docker image
• enable XTEST for XQuartz on mac for automated keypresses to work

Example Build

docker build -t kicsikrumpli/wine-pyinstaller:latest .

Build 32-bit Windows Python Apps

• bind mount current directory with script to /src/
• assumes presence of requirements.txt
• docker run parameters are passed to pyinstaller

Example Run

docker run -it -v $(pwd):/src kicsikrumpli/wine-pyinstaller --clean --onefile my_python_script.py

Run Bash in Container

docker run -it kicsikrumpli/wine-pyinstaller --bash
