kandi X-RAY | pymakeself Summary
pymakeself is a Python library. pymakeself has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has build file available and it has low support. You can install using 'pip install pymakeself' or download it from GitHub, PyPI.
pymakeself is a Python script that generates a self-extractable tar.gz archive from a directory. The resulting file appears as a Python script, and can be launched as is. The archive will then uncompress itself to a temporary directory and run an optional python setup script. A pymakeself archive also includes a SHA256 checksum for integrity self-validation. The makeself.py script itself is used only to create the archive from a directory of files. The resulting archive is a compressed (gzip or bzip2) TAR archive, with a small Python script stub at the beginning. This script performs all the steps of extracting the files, running the embedded setup script, and cleaning up afterward. The user only needs to "run" the archive to install its contents, i.e python install-nice-app.py. This code is intended to be as portable as possible and should run on any system with an installation of python2.7 or later. Other than Python, it does not rely on external utilities such as tar, gzip, bash etc.

Install pymakeself
Create an installer, named install_stuff, that runs setup.py:.
Create an installer that runs the accountutil.py tool (one of the modules in the pymakeself installtools) as the setup script, to create the "ajg" user account:. Specifying @accountutil as the setup script tells pymakeself to use the UNIX account creation tool, that is included with the pymakeself package. Notice that the -i argument to accountutil (the directory with files to install) specifies ./ instead of ajg_dot_files. This is because the setup file is always run from within the archive directory, so the install directory is the current directory.
