Pypi release is updated. Upgrade with pip using:
>pip install pynps --upgrade
Good news for windows users this release. As always, for any bug refer to [issues](https://github.com/evertonstz/pynps/issues)
*PSA: Keep in mind windows has a hard time with japanese characters, that's a problem with cmd and I'm not sure if I can do something to mitigate it. But I'm looking into it. Anyone with more information about this can also refer to [issues](https://github.com/evertonstz/pynps/issues)*
Changelog
Windows binaries are available again
You read it right, "are", pynps is now shipped in two flavors for windows:
**Windows installer:**
This is the best way for noobs to get everything runing, pynps is installed at `C:\Program Files (x86)\pyNPS`, this installer ships with wget.exe and pkg2zip.exe bundled within, the installer will also add pynps into the PATHS (only if installed as administrator, aka "For all users in this computer", tho). **For people that don't care about these technicalities, basically this means you only need to install pynps and it'll work out of the box: just open cmd and type "pynps".**
For the installer, pynps uses this directory `C:\Users\USERNAME\Documents\pyNPSbin` to store everything:
-there's no `lib` folder, since it's bundled with the installer
-settings file is at `pyNPSbin\settings.ini`
-database is located at `pyNPSbin\database\pynps.db`
The download folder is `C:\Users\USERNAME\Downloads\pyNPS`
**Windows portable exe file:**
This is a one file executable shipped inside a zip, compared to the Windows installer, the portable release should have a startup time that's a little slower; You'll still need to look for a `pkg2zip.exe` and a `wget.exe` file and put it in the lib folder inside `place_where_you_extracted_zip\pynps\pynps_config\lib`. You'll also need to add the `pynps.exe` into your PATH if you want to run it easily from cmd, double clicking the file don't work.
For the portable release, **everything** is done inside `place_where_you_extracted_zip\pynps`
- `wget.exe` and `pkg2zip.exe`, as already explaned, have to be inside `pynps_config\lib\`
-settings file is at `pynps_config\settings.ini`
-database is located at `pynps_database\pynps.db`
The download folder is `pynps_downloads`, also inside `place_where_you_extracted_zip\pynps`
Support for pip on windows 14
Windows users that are familiar with python can now install pynps using pip!
On WIndows, pynps uses this directory `C:\Users\USERNAME\Documents\pyNPS` to store everything:
- `wget.exe` and`pkg2zip.exe` have to be inside `pyNPS\lib\`
-settings file is at `pyNPS\settings.ini`
-database is located at `pyNPS\database\pynps.db`
The download folder is `C:\Users\USERNAME\Downloads\pyNPS`
Windows user **not** using the installer can get [pkg2zip from lusi1](https://github.com/lusid1/pkg2zip/releases) and a wget build [from here](https://eternallybored.org/misc/wget/)
