If you need to store environment variables for Python that does not automatically get detected by VS Code then this answer should hopefully help you.
I am doing a Data Science bootcamp and need to store a specific path for one of my challenges.
Exporting PYTHONPATH
in ~/.zshrc
works perfectly when I run the notebook directly from Juypter, however the environment variable is not detected through VS Code.
I created a global file in my home directory from the pwd
(present working directory) that I wanted to store in my path:
echo "export PYTHONPATH=$(pwd):$PYTHONPATH" >> ~/.python-env
I opened the JSON User Settings in VS Code and added the python.envFile
setting which points directly to ~/.python-env
{
"python.envFile": "~/.python-env"
}
