Making a sis package with several py modules in 3rd ed

[HANNU]

Hi,

I was trying to make a sis package that contains the main.py file and util1.py and util2.py. That should be self signed package. Using "ensymble py2sis" I was able to create the main.sis. Then i created utility.sis using "ensymble simplesis", and finally "ensymble mergesis" to make the final package. The problem seems to be in the utility.sis. I have tried to put util1.py and util2.py under !:\resource\ or !:\python\libs\ in a sis file, but had no success. I got "update error" during installing to the device.

Have someone managed to install utility/library modules using Ensymble?

Here is the command which I've been using to create SIS-packaged PlokIn:

/opt/local/bin/python ./bin/ensymble_python2.4-0.23.py py2sis --caps=LocalServices+NetworkServices+ReadUserData+UserEnvironment+WriteUserData --appname="PlokIn selfsigned" --version=0.1.570 --uid=0xfxxxxxxx --lang=FI --icon=plokin.svg --textfile=README_%C.txt sisdir/ plokin-r570-selfsigned.sis

Notes:

• sisdir/ contains default.py (=the main script) and included modules
• --uid is messed in command above
• lang, icon and textfile switches probably are not mandatory (consult esymble's documentation)
• Check your ensymble and python path

Directory structure probably does not fit any SIS-packaging standard, but at least it works.

Thanks, that solved my problem! It not not so clearly said in the documentation.

Btw. Does anybody know if installing own libraries to "\resource" or "\python\libs\" is possible at all using self signed sis?

In general - yes, most packages created by carbide.c++ (i.e., makesis.exe utility and selfsigned) copy their content to \sys\bin\ or \resource, so I guess any folder is accessible.
However, I don't know if it's possible to tell ensymble destination folder(s). It'd be nice.

See section `The "simplesis" command´ in Ensymble's README:
http://www.nbl.fi/~nbl928/README-0.23.txt

There is something about it.

I was not able to install files to /resource etc. using "ensymble simplesis". I gave "update error" on device.

Hmm. I think I'm still going to put all files into a single folder (at least it works!) until someone finds out how to use /recourse etc. directories with ensymble. :-)
