How are exe builds generated?

I can't find any Travis or Appveyor scripts to learn from for building other python binaries from source.

Thanks in advance.

With py2exe, or what do you mean?

That's what I'm asking about. Thanks.

Could you explain a bit more how it's done? Perhaps the builds get generated somehow with this script? https://github.com/rg3/youtube-dl/blob/c3bcd206eb031de30179c88ac7acd806a477ceae/devscripts/buildserver.py

I've seen other build scripting done with Travis and Appveyor, so that's what I'm thinking to do for Python.

exes are built by buildserver.py. It's a simple http server that processes request from the main build script and sends back ready exe.
