Whenever I use sys.path.append, the new directory will be added. However, once I close python, the list will revert to the previous (default?) values. How do I permanently add a directory to PYTHONPATH?

Clicking on the Environment Variables button on the bottom right. In the System variables section, selecting the Path variable and clicking on Edit. The next screen will show all the directories that are currently a part of the PATH variable. Clicking on New and entering Python's install directory.
PYTHONPATH is related to sys. path very closely. PYTHONPATH is an environment variable that you set before running the Python interpreter. PYTHONPATH , if it exists, should contain directories that should be searched for modules when using import .
If you're using bash (on a Mac or GNU/Linux distro), add this to your ~/.bashrc
export PYTHONPATH="${PYTHONPATH}:/my/other/path" If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
