> Python executable should be overridable
> ---------------------------------------

> Key: BEAM-678
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-678
> Project: Beam
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: sdk-py
> Reporter: Scott Wegner
> Assignee: Scott Wegner
> Priority: Minor
>
> Since [PR 962|https://github.com/apache/incubator-beam/pull/962],
> dependency.py will use {{sys.executable}} to source the python executable to
> use for managing dependencies. However, as stated in the [python
> docs|https://docs.python.org/2/library/sys.html#sys.executable]:
> bq. If Python is unable to retrieve the real path to its executable,
> sys.executable will be an empty string or None.
> To mitigate this, we should allow setting the python executable to use via an
> environment variable.
