How to specify py2app icon?

Question

How do I specify the icon file when using py2app?

Just now I create the setup file:

py2applet --make-setup MyApplication.py

and then build the application bundle:

 python setup.py py2app -A

where is it that I specify the icon file.. getting a little confused. Thanks for any help.

according to this link- http://packages.python.org/py2app/options.html, I should add it as an option.

Currently my setup.py file looks like this:

"""
This is a setup.py script generated by py2applet

Usage:
    python setup.py py2app
"""

from setuptools import setup

APP = ['hello.py']
DATA_FILES = ['chalkboard.jpg']
OPTIONS = {'argv_emulation': True,
'iconfile': '/Users/grahamethomson/Documents/College/HND/oop/game/personal       developoment/G/icon.icns'}

setup(
    app=APP,
    data_files=DATA_FILES,
    options={'py2app': OPTIONS},
    setup_requires=['py2app'],
)

In your setup.py, add iconfile

"""
This is a setup.py script generated by py2applet

Usage:
    python setup.py py2app
"""

from setuptools import setup

APP = ['main.py']
DATA_FILES = []
OPTIONS = {
    'iconfile':'icon.icns',
    'plist': {'CFBundleShortVersionString':'0.1.0',}
}

setup(
    app=APP,
    name='MacApp',
    data_files=DATA_FILES,
    options={'py2app': OPTIONS},
    setup_requires=['py2app'],
)
