How to compile into distributable binaries?:

In order to compile these Python script files into Linux binaries, you must have pyinstaller installed, alongwith auto-py-to-exe when necessary

Quick Compilation Guide:

  • Download both of the scripts enable_led and disable_led
  • Make a working directory.
mkdir working-dir
cd working-dir

  • Copy scripts from your Downloads folder to the working-dir you have just made.
cp enable_led.py /working-dir/enable_led.py
cp disable_led.py /working-dir/disable_led.py

  • Compile them with pyinstaller
pyinstaller enable_led.py
pyinstaller disable_led.py

  • Copy them into /usr/bin for easier access later.
sudo cp enable_led /usr/bin/enable_led
sudo cp disable_led /usr/bin/disable_led

I don't think I have to tell you that you must have to enter your sudo password to copy to /usr/bin.

  • Enjoy!
