pyqt gui console keeps opening

Question

so i am running python 3.5 and spyder 3.2.8 and pyinstaller i have made a gui with designer used the main thats shows below.

def run():
    app=QtWidgets.QApplication(sys.argv)
    MainWindow = QtWidgets.QMainWindow()
    ui = Ui_Dialog()
    ui.setupUi(MainWindow)
    MainWindow.show()
    sys.exit(app.exec_())

run()

my question is about that when i use the pyinstaller to make the exe i run it and a console pop ups along with the gui and when i close it, all the gui closes. any idea?

Answer 1

I think you need to indent it properly to have your code only execute when run() is invoked.

def run():
    app=QtWidgets.QApplication(sys.argv)
    MainWindow = QtWidgets.QMainWindow()
    ui = Ui_Dialog()
    ui.setupUi(MainWindow)
    MainWindow.show()
    sys.exit(app.exec_())

run()

Answer 2

Use '--noconsole' argument while creating your .exe using pyinstaller
