I want to be able to use the paraview.simple library in PyCharm. I already have paraview installed in my computer. This package cannot be installed with pip and there are no .whl files as far as I can tell. The website docs recommend that the directory containing all the python files be added to PYTHONPATH.
How do I add the relevant folder in PYTHONPATH on my PyCharm session, and keep it there by default, such that when I close out and reopen the paraview.simple library is still available?

Press Ctrl+Alt+S to open the IDE settings and select Appearance & Behavior | Path Variables. and enter the name of the new variable (for example, DATA_PATH ) and its value that points to the target directory with the data file on your disk.

In that Menu, highlight your interpreter and then in the right menu, select the button "Show paths for the selected interpreter" (this is the last button) Show activity on this post.

To avoid complications when moving projects from one computer to another, PyCharm provides path variables. (A path variable, obviously, is a variable whose value is an absolute path to a directory or file.) Path variables are particularly useful when working with third-party libraries stored outside the project directory.
In PyCharm, you can specify an interpreter that will be automatically set for all newly created projects. From the main menu, select File | New Projects Setup | Settings for New Projects (on Window and Linux) or File | New Projects Setup | Preferences for New Projects (on macOS).
You can add custom paths this way.
