I have a script that needs moviepy, I wanted to have it as an executable but that doesn't seem to work, does anyone know if there is a workaround for this?

from moviepy.editor import *

Console:

./run

1. First create a virtual environment using venv.

2. Then create a requirements file, if you haven't done already.

   pip freeze > requirements.txt

3. Use this requirements file in your pyinstaller, while creating executable.

   path\to\pyinstaller.exe --onefile --paths \venv_location\file.py

4. You can go through PyInstaller Docs for more details.
