packaging python program in a single executable

Question

Hi I need to package a python program in to a single executable. I need to have a executable that does not need a python installation and third party packages.

So need to have

python 2.7.5
WMI==1.4.9
pyjs==0.1.0
pywin32==219
requests==2.4.3
urllib3==1.9.1

Is this even possible? I need to able to make a executable to to be run on a freshly installed windows XP+ machine.

I tried pyinstaller but after that i could not execute the file. Which tool could provide everything needed?

Answer 1

Take a look at Py2exe: http://www.py2exe.org/ . It's made for that exact purpose.
