New submission from WHK Yan :
It would be very useful to be able to compile at a low level a complete Python
functional script and generate a native binary for each type of operating
system and architecture just like golang does.
For example:
Run script: $ go run script.go
Compile script: $ GOOS=linux GOARCH=amd64 go build -o test test.go
The generated binary does not require goland installed to be executed and does
not require complex dependencies. This allows me to distribute applications in
binary are an excellent performance without requiring the installation of the
entire interpreter.
Golang's problem is that it is not an intuitive language and the learning curve
is very long, they had a very good idea but they carried it out in a horrible
way.
On the other hand, python is very flexible and very intuitive, the learning
curve is very short, I learned python in less than a week and I have been
creating python applications for several years, instead I have been trying to
learn golang for months and it is excessively strange.
Why not combine the best of both worlds? Unite non-dependence and
cross-platform distribution without relying on the interpreter and the most
versatile and intuitive language?
For example:
Run script: $ python script.py
Compile pyc $ python -m compileall
Compile native: $ python -m ncompileall -k linux -a amd_64
When compileall generate the pyc files and ncompileall generate a native
binaries without complex dependencies or python dependencies.
This would be a great advantage in equipment that does not require additional
installation of components.
For example, on servers of some companies they do not allow you to install
something that can affect the entire environment or ecosystem, in addition, in
many cases the scripts require a specific version of python and cause problems
when different versions are required to other applications, the complete
compilation at low level would allow to resolve this conflict.
There are currently few projects that allow you to translate a python script to
binary but most do not have support or do not have a good performance, if
python already brought it integrated it would increase its use even more since
it would not depend on the interpreter to be able to distribute a complete
application that already include all its modules and others.
