Environment

  • Python 3.12.2
  • zeroconf.__version__ '0.132.2'
  • Windows 11

Description

Launching an exe created by PyInstaller results in:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "main.py", line 35, in <module>
    from zeroconf import ServiceBrowser, ServiceListener, Zeroconf
  File "PyInstaller\loader\pyimod02_importers.py", line 419, in exec_module
  File "zeroconf\__init__.py", line 26, in <module>
  File "PyInstaller\loader\pyimod02_importers.py", line 419, in exec_module
  File "zeroconf\_core.py", line 32, in <module>
  File "PyInstaller\loader\pyimod02_importers.py", line 419, in exec_module
  File "zeroconf\_engine.py", line 38, in <module>
  File "src\\zeroconf\\_listener.py", line 1, in init zeroconf._listener
  File "src\\zeroconf\\_services\\info.py", line 1, in init zeroconf._services.info
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'zeroconf._utils.ipaddress'
[11808] Failed to execute script 'main' due to unhandled exception!
  • The exact same error happens if using import zeroconf.
  • For some reason, the only file in the zeroconf/_utils folder is time.cp312-win_amd64.pyd (notice there is no ipaddress module there)

Ok, it turns out PyInstaller didn't find parts of it. Workaround:

a = Analysis(
    ...
    hiddenimports=[
        'zeroconf._utils.ipaddress',  # and potentially others in .venv\Lib\site-packages\zeroconf\_utils, but that seems to pull in every pyd file
        'zeroconf._handlers.answers',  # and potentially others in .venv\Lib\site-packages\zeroconf\_handlers, but that seems to pull in every pyd file
        # and potentially others in _protocol or _services in .venv\Lib\site-packages\zeroconf\, but the above imports seem to pull in every pyd file from these
    ],
    ...
  • These imports allowed the following parts to work: from zeroconf import ServiceBrowser, ServiceListener, Zeroconf. However, other components may require more as noted in the comments above.

A full solution would be to add PyInstaller hooks to zeroconf (I may try to learn how...) if that is able to deal with the issue.
