Configuration File Parameters

• name — The name of the service.
• path — The path to the executable file.
• interval — The auto-start interval (in seconds).
• enabled — The activation flag (enabled/disabled).

Dependencies

The program uses the following libraries:

• ttkbootstrap — for creating a modern and intuitive interface.
• tkinter — a standard library for creating graphical interfaces in Python.
• json — for working with the configuration file.
• subprocess — for managing processes (starting and stopping services).

Creating an Executable File (.exe) from Your Python Script

To create an executable file (.exe) without the console window from your Python script, follow these steps:

Step 1. Install PyInstaller

If you haven’t installed PyInstaller yet, run the following command:

pip install pyinstaller

Step 2. Prepare an Icon (if required)

Make sure the icon file icon.ico is in the same folder as your script BNS-Server-Manager.py. If you have an image in another format, convert it to .ico.

Step 3. Create the .exe with PyInstaller

To create the .exe without the console window, run the following command:

pyinstaller --onefile --windowed --icon=icon.ico BNS-Server-Manager.py

Command parameters:

• --onefile — packs all files into one executable file.
• --windowed — excludes the console window.
• --icon=icon.ico — adds a custom icon.

Step 4. Check the Created Executable File

After running the command, PyInstaller will create a dist folder where you will find the BNS-Server-Manager.exe file.

Step 5. Run the Created File

Go to the dist folder and run BNS-Server-Manager.exe to check if it works correctly.
