Well, well, back again!
I am bored of saying what are we going to do today!! So, here it is, you don't need to ask! BTW - Sorry, if you find me rude. I don't want to be rude. And, if you are coming here the first time, then check these out first - Part 1, Part 2!
Today's Plan
Today is no code. We are going to working with Windows and some other non-code things! So, get ready.
Prerequisites
Python Libraries:
Be familiar with:
- The Windows Registry
Installation
We need to install auto-py-to-exe
to convert our application to an executable.
Install using - $ pip install auto-py-to-exe
Done! Everything installed!
Let's Start
Open a new Command Prompt Window and type - auto-py-to-exe
A window similar to this should open -
Now, click browse and locate your python file containing the handler. Then select One File in the next section and Console Based in the Console Window Section. Then, expand the Settings section and Put a path you can remember under Output Directory. and finally, click "CONVERT .PY TO .EXE". After it is complete, close the window and go back to the Command Prompt and type regedit
and select yes
if a UAC window pops up.
Registry Editor
It is recommended you make a restore point before following the next steps. Changing anything other than what is mentioned here could even break your whole computer. The author is not liable for any changes you do further. Follow the next steps at your own risk.
After you have read the above, follow these steps -
- Inside Registry Editor right-click HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT and create a new key
- Name the key whatever you want your protocol to be called!
python
for my case. - Inside the
python
key create a new String Value and name it "URL Protocol" - Under
python
create a new key and name itshell
. Undershell
create new key and name itopen
. - And finally, under
shell
create a key namedcommand
. - Now inside
command
change the value of(Default)
to this"D:/path/to/your/exe/file/within/quotes" "%1"
- And Done! Now close registry editor and open up a browser.
- Type -
python://D:/path/to/any/python/file.py
in the address bar and press enter. - Enjoy!
