How do I use uncompyle6












1














I am new to Python. I have version 2.7.11 installed on my MacBook Pro, running Yosemite 10.10.5. I am trying to figure this out because I would like to decompile the scripts to the Native Instruments Maschine, take a look at them and create some of my own for use with Ableton Live.



I can't seem to get any further than the fact the uncompyle2, uncompyle6 and spark-parser have all been downloaded into my .../Python/2.7/site-packages folder. Typing in the shell $ uncompyle -h doesn't do anything either.



I'm stuck and this is starting to increase the fury inside and I'm afraid I may go on a terrible rampage if I don't figure this out. I've looked all over the interwebs and can't find a single, detailed explanation on how to do this. I need an explanation similar to Reddit's 'like I'm 5' so I can actually see and learn what I am doing.



If anyone can help I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you!

The command you run is called when you install uncompyle6 is uncompyle6, not uncompyle. The command you run when you install incompyle2 is uncompyle2.



Both of these programs require a compiled Python program. See this for a discussion of what the .pyo and .pyc extensions mean.



There was a bug in earlier versions of uncompyle6 that didn't install the script files correctly. So if uncompyle6 isn't found, try installing a newer package using pip install uncompyle6 (if you are using a virtual python setup) or sudo pip install uncompyle6 if you want to install system wide using the system python, as you probably want to do.
