I keep getting the following error when running the exe file generated from plotly-dash codes using PyInstaller.
AttributeError: 'FrozenImporter' object has no attribute 'filename'
Did some in-depth check, only able to identify the attribute error happened when dash is trying to import dash_renderer and retrieving the filename from the line package.filename
Tried adding the following but still unable to resolve
- added import dash_renderer to my codes
- copied dash and dash_renderer package folders into dist/{app}/ folder
My plotly-dash codes
external_stylesheets = ['https://codepen.io/chriddyp/pen/bWLwgP.css']
app = dash.Dash(__name__, external_stylesheets=external_stylesheets)
app.layout = html.Div(children=[
html.H2(children='H-{} Meeting Dashboard'.format("SS"), style={'text-align':'center'}),
html.Div(children=[
html.Div('''Generated on {}'''.format(str(datetime.now())[:19]), style={'text-align':'center', 'font-size':'15px'})
], className='row')]
)
if __name__ == "__main__":
app.run_server(debug=True)
PyInstaller Codes used to generate the exe file
