I have installed OpenCV 4.1 in Jetson Nano from source. It works perfect when i run my python3 code. After compiling python code using pyinstaller it throws ImportError.

ImportError: OpenCV loader: missing configuration file: ['config.py']. Check OpenCV installation.

How do I compile python code using PyInstaller to make OpenCV included? Is there any other method to install OpenCV? I have tried pip3 install opencv-python but it does not find the matching distribution and if I install using sudo apt-get install python3-opencv it installs an older version. Any help wou.d be helpful.

I have also followed this thread but it does not work when OpenCV is compiled from source...

After lots of debugging, I found the following solution:
Python 3.6
OpenCV 4.1 (Compiled from source)
pyinstaller 3.5

1. Get the path of OpenCV 

import cv2
print(cv2.__file__) # /usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/cv2/python-3.6/cv2.so

2. Add this path while compiling through pyinstaller

pyinstaller main.py -n myApp --paths="/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/cv2/python-3.6"

I hope this helps others also
