pyFileSearch

Simple GUI tool to search from filename using a file index generated by pyFileIndexer

My comments in french for a fresh start

• TODO : everything in english
• TODO : code separation between main, interface, index file handling...

Search mode

• -i ou --index : set the index file name to use , default "index.pbz2" Note : the index file has to be generated by pyFileIndexer (no extension required is the argument)

Build an executable

install pyinstaller with the command :

• pip install pyinstaller

build the executable:

• pyinstaller ./pyFileSearch.py --onefile -w

Options : onefile -> generates only one .exe executable file with all included w -> hide the console window at run time

• or use the pyFileSearch.spec

Use the executable

Do not forget to copy the index file (index.pbz2) next to the executable file

[ ] TODO : the executable cannot accept arguments to define the index file name yet.
