Hi

Trying to install and use a 3rd party Python library
The library is installed and my PATH variable has been edited to point to this install.

Where I am stumbling is how to get Houdini to recognize this path

ie if I open a new Python Shell in Houdini I should be able to do
>>>import mycustomPythonlibrary


and not get an error.


Can anyone help?

The Docs [www.sidefx.com] say you place your path in
$LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

Does that solve your case ?

PYTHONPATH is used by the python interpreter to determine which modules to load.

PATH [net-informations.com] is used by the shell to determine which executables to run.
