I have an application that I would like to package in an .exe file. However, the -F option generates a 50Mb file that is too slow to boot.
When I generate the application with the option --onedir the result is better, but the distribution of the application is more complicated due to the number of folders and files generated next to the .exe
I wish I could have all those files and folders in another location and that somehow the bootloader knew how to find them.
I know it's a demanded option that has not yet been resolved through the pyinstaller itself.
However, some time ago, there was a form using the% option --runtime-hook to an additional python module that calls the function sys.path.append()
However, this method does not currently seem to work. I've tried it with a "Helloworld.py" and it seems to be fine, but as soon as I insert some library as pandas, pygame the generated .exe needs to be at the same level as the rest of the generated files.
Thank you very much in advance.
