I haven't had any success running the paraview package from my standard Python installation. However, I have done the reverse - use packages from my standard Python installation in pvpython. You can use path configuration files to automatically append to your pvpython path - see http://docs.python.org/library/site.html for details. Here's an example from my Windows box:
Go to your pvpython 3rd party site-packages directory. C:\Program Files (x86)\ParaView 3.8.1\bin\Lib on Windows. Create a file named mypackage.pth (e.g. numpy.pth). Edit the file and add the path to the package, escape the slashes: C:\\Python26\\Lib\\site-packages. If your installed package is an egg then you'll have to enter the path that leads you to an importable package: C:\Python26\Lib\site-packages\networkx-1.2.dev-py2.6.egg The path to the installed package will now be appended to your pvpython path automatically so you won't have to use sys.path.append everytime you launch Paraview.

Sent by: [email protected] Dear All, Is it possible to add python modules to my path? I am working with Mac OS X. When I use the pvpthon command inside the Paraview folder and do "from paraview.simple import *" it works pretty good, but If I do from outside the Paraview folder does not work. If anyone knows how to do this, please help.
