I want to run the exe file with command line arguments in Mac terminal
p1.exe -f input.txt
But im getting error -bash: p1: command not found
I have converted python file p1.py into p1.exe using
pyintsaller p1.py --onefile
And running the python file with arguments works
python p1.py -f input.txt
This isn't to do with Python, but is a basic command shell issue. To run an executable from the current directory, you need to use the ./ prefix.
./p1.exe -f input.txt
Note, it's a bit odd to use a .exe extension for a Linux executable.
Note that on Unix like systems (Linux/Unix/Solaris/MacOS). scripts can be run without explicitly invoking interpreter, if two conditions are meet:
script file starts with this line (or similar): #!/usr/bin/env python
file has executable attribute flag is set
Then you can run script like this:
./p1.py --onefile
./ means run thing from local directory. If this is not pressent the it tries to run things located by PATH variable, that is why you can run interpreter python
.exeis a Windows PE executable, it won't execute on macOS. No Windows executable will (unless you're using an emulation or virtualization layer). You'll need to package into a macOS.apppackage or build a macOS installer instead.
