Make shotgun api usable with pyinstaller

[dreh23]

We're trying to use pyinstaller for easy internal deployment of a single executable written in python.

Compiling works:

pyinstaller sgflop.py -F --upx-dir=/usr/bin/ --hidden-import=shotgun_api3 --hidden-import=ssl --hidden-import=httplib2 --hidden-import=_ssl --hidden-import=certifi --hidden-import=os

Execution fails with this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "sgflop.py", line 25, in <module>

I found a solution in this thread. Now it works, but I believe this should be elegantly implemented in the httplib2 lib inside shotgun.

Is this something you would include if I file a pull request? Any suggestion how to wrap the certficate in the code?

P.S. Did I mention I would prefer to use a go package for shotgun

Thanks for the info. We have similar documentation on our documentation site. We will look into this option though.

Thanks for sending this along!
