Hi all,
I'm trying to package a onefile application on a Mac, which uses basemap (a
toolkit for matplotlib, available in MacPorts). Building the application
works fine, but running it gives:
IOError: proj data directory not found. Expecting it at:
<path>/dist/testexe-mac?34496/mpl_toolkits/basemap/data
The pyproj module has an attribute which gives the location of the data
directory:
>>> import mpl_toolkits.basemap.pyproj
>>> mpl_toolkits.basemap.pyproj.pyproj_datadir
'/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/mpl_toolkits/basemap/data'
So, I tried to write a hook to tell Pyinstaller about this directory (based
it on hook-matpotlib.py):
pyinstaller-2.0/PyInstaller/hooks/hook-mpl_toolkits.basemap.pyproj.py:
from PyInstaller.hooks.hookutils import exec_statement
pyproj_data_dir = exec_statement(
"import mpl_toolkits.basemap.pyproj; print
mpl_toolkits.basemap.pyproj.pyproj_datadir")
datas = [
(pyproj_data_dir, ""),
]
I also had to create an empty file 'hook-mpl_toolkits.basemap.py' to avoid
a RuntimeWarning about a parent module not found. The application builds
successfully, and the hook is definitely run (tested by adding a print
statement), however the original error persists. Does anyone have any
advice about how to fix this? I would be very grateful for any help and
would be happy to contribute the hook code back once it is working.
Thanks,
Andrew
