pandas_datareader & pyinstaller

Question

Has any of you encounter the below issue with pyinstaller? I have a code that uses pandas_datareader and it seems to be the reason why pyinstaller returns RecursionError: maximum recursion depth exceeded

here's a simple code that I used to test and confirm that pdr is the only lib that breaks in pyinstaller

import pandas_datareader as pdr

print(pdr.DataReader('AAPL', 'yahoo', start="2020-04-06", end="2020-04-06"))

I'm using

• python 3.7.4
• Pyinstaller 3.6
• pandas_datareader 0.8.1

Thanks!

I found a solution HERE from Aviral

it seems that the issue was the limit number of recursion. Once I changed it to 5000 it went through
