Read Me
bdist_nsi
The bdist_nsi module extends Python's distutils module with a bdist_nsi setup command to create binary Windows installers for Python modules, based on NSIS. Thereby, bdist_nsi brings all the features of NSIS to Windows installers for Python modules, such as silent install, modern user interface, and internationalization.
In action
Take a look at the screenshots.
What you need
Besides Python and the bdist_nsi module, you will need NSIS. It can be run under windows and linux (see NSIS forum for instructions).
Installation
The latest version can always be downloaded from https://sourceforge.net/projects/bdist-nsi/files.
To install from source, simply run:
python setup.py install
Usage
Add bdist_nsi option to your setup.py file.
In your projects setup.py:
try:
import bdist_nsi
except ImportError:
pass
nsis_options = {} # your nsis options
setup(
name='your application name',
version='0.0.x',
author='your name',
author_email='your email',
url='http://yourdomain.com/',
options={'bdist_nsi': nsis_options, },
license='your license',) # your setup options
You can create installer python setup.py bdist_nsi command.
If the makensis executable is not installed in one of the usual locations (/usr/bin, C:\Program Files\NSIS, or C:\Program Files (x86)\NSIS), then you can specify the NSIS folder with the --nsis-dir option, or just add -k to have a look at the temporary generated files.
Development
Development happens at github, http://github.com/amorilia/bdist_nsi/. Fork at will!
