PYI-GRAB_VERSION(1)

💖 NAME 💖

pyi-grab_version — bestie, this one literally snatches the version info right out of a PyInstaller executable 👑

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

Okay so here's the vibe: you got an exe, you wanna know what version info it's carrying, and you don't wanna go digging around in binary guts yourself. That's what this is for. The manual page lives under PyInstaller Grab Version, section 1 (user commands, iykyk), and it works like this:

pyi-grab_version [-h] exe-file [out-filename]

🌸 positional arguments 🌸

• exe-file — the full pathname of an executable. Not optional, not negotiable, it is required fr fr. Give it the whole path, no shortcuts.
• out-filename — the filename where the grabbed version info gets saved. This one's optional, so if you skip it you just get the output printed instead 🫶

🎀 options 🎀

• -h, --help — shows this help message and dips. Classic, iconic, always there for you 💅

✨ Pro move alert ✨ — the printed output may be saved to a file, edited, and used as the input for a version resource on any of the executable targets in a PyInstaller .spec. So it's giving little version-info starter pack, and you can customize it however you want 🦋

That's the whole page, babes 💜 This one's from version 6.10.0, dated October 2024, and it's brought to you by PyInstaller Grab Version(1) — go grab those versions, you absolute main character 🌈⭐🎀
