Getting Started

This project is built for Python 3.9+ and provides a smooth setup for anyone familiar with Python.

Prerequisites

Ensure you have the following installed:

• Python 3.9 or higher

Usage

• Open GUI:

  python StampExtract.py

• Build using pyinstaller:

  You should replace the path of the tkinterdnd2package in both --paths and --add-data with your own path.

  pyinstaller StampExtract.spec

  or

  #Replace {Path/to/envs/site-packages} with your own path to the site-packages folder of your Python environment.
  
  pyinstaller -F StampExtract.py --paths {Path/to/envs/site-packages} --add-data "{Path/to/tkinterdnd2};tkinterdnd2" --hidden-import=tkinterdnd2 --clean --windowed
  
  #Example for Windows
  
  pyinstaller -F StampExtract.py --paths C:\Users\84555\AppData\Local\anaconda3\envs\pyinstaller\Lib\site-packages --add-data "C:\Users\84555\AppData\Local\anaconda3\envs\pyinstaller\Lib\site-packages\tkinterdnd2;tkinterdnd2" --hidden-import=tkinterdnd2 --clean --windowed
