[Python] iconipy and pyinstaller issue

I would like to ask you for help with creation of .exe file from python script where I use customtkinter, iconipy libraries.

• pyinstaller: https://pyinstaller.org/en/stable
• iconimy: https://iconipy.digidigital.de/iconipy.html

After creation of .exe file I finished with this error:

My python code:

from PIL import Image
from customtkinter import CTk, CTkFrame, CTkImage, CTkButton
from iconipy import IconFactory

def Create_Icon(Icon_Set: str, Icon_Name: str, Icon_Size: str, Theme_index: int) -> Image:
Icon_Fact = IconFactory(
icon_set = Icon_Set,
icon_size = 40,
font_size = 30,
font_color = "#FFFFFF",
outline_width = 0,
outline_color = None,
background_color = None,
background_radius = 0)
Icon_PIL = Icon_Fact.asPil(Icon_Name)
return Icon_PIL

def Get_CTk_Icon(Icon_Set: str, Icon_Name: str, Icon_Size: str) -> CTkImage:
Picture = CTkImage(
light_image = Create_Icon(Icon_Set=Icon_Set, Icon_Name=Icon_Name, Icon_Size=Icon_Size, Theme_index=0),
dark_image =Create_Icon(Icon_Set=Icon_Set, Icon_Name=Icon_Name, Icon_Size=Icon_Size, Theme_index=1),
size = (40, 40))
return Picture

def Get_Button_Icon(Frame: CTk|CTkFrame, Icon_Set: str, Icon_Name: str, Icon_Size: str, Button_Size: str) -> CTkFrame:
Frame_Button = CTkButton(
master = Frame,
width = 40,
height = 40,
corner_radius = 0,
border_width = 0,
bg_color = "transparent",
fg_color = "transparent",
hover = False,
anchor = "center",
text = "")
CTK_Image = Get_CTk_Icon(Icon_Set=Icon_Set, Icon_Name=Icon_Name, Icon_Size=Icon_Size)
Frame_Button.configure(image=CTK_Image, text="")
return Frame_Button

window = CTk()

Icon_Theme = Get_Button_Icon(Frame=window, Icon_Set="lucide", Icon_Name="sun-moon", Icon_Size="Header", Button_Size="Picture_Theme")
Icon_Theme.configure(text="")

Icon_Theme.pack(side="top", fill="none", expand=False, padx=5, pady=5)

# run
window.mainloop()


I use anaconda for virtual environment where I have only:

I installed only python by "conda install python" and then these 3 by pip:

1. pip install customtkinter
2. pip install iconipy
3. pip install pyinstaller

and I convers the main.py to .exe (in Anaconda):

1. run: conda activate ENV-Iconipy_Pyinstaller
2. cd to correct project path
3. run: pyinstaller --name Test --onedir --windowed main.py
4. Add path and files into folder "_internal" (because without that there are issues)

• Path: "_internal/iconipy/assets/lucide/"
• Empty file1: info.json
• Empty file2: version.txt

If I run code in terminal it is correct and I receive this window:
