i have a mac where i installed python, and tornado web server .. i used py2app and created an executable which wraps my tornado kickoff script into an executable .. works ok sometimes, but i am confused about a couple things:
1) when i run the app, since it is essentially a command line script with no GUI, i see nothing, although i is running ... how can i create the app so that it opens the terminal and shows the output? 2) sometimes it gets blocked by the firewall and sometimes it does not .. i have manually gone in and added it to he allowed list in the firewall, then as soon as it tries to open a port, the firewall blocks it ... i am not sure how i did it but i got it work a few times, then sometimes it is blocked .. how can i make sure when i run the app, it has full permission without having to mess with the firewall setting ... for example, is there an admin option when making the executable? 3) Finally, i am not sure what is actually wrapped in the executable, using basic standard options without specifying libraries to load, etc .. will the executable have the tornado related libraries already there, or it will only run on a mac with tornado already installed ... ? my macs have tornado so i cannot test this unless i uninstall it ... i guess my question is, is it smart enough to know to include all the tornado stuff too? ed
