To follow up on this thread…
On OS X, running PV as an app, then opening the Python shell, I get:
>>> os.environ
{'SHELL': '/bin/bash', 'SSH_AUTH_SOCK':
'/private/tmp/com.apple.launchd.yYfqa8v89A/Listeners', 'XPC_FLAGS': '0x0',
'__CF_USER_TEXT_ENCODING': '0x1F5:0x0:0x0', 'Apple_PubSub_Socket_Render':
'/private/tmp/com.apple.launchd.dl97FcplnG/Render', 'LOGNAME': 'heiland',
'USER': 'heiland', 'XPC_SERVICE_NAME': 'org.paraview.ParaView.37836', 'PATH':
'/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin', 'HOME': '/Users/heiland', 'DISPLAY':
'/private/tmp/com.apple.launchd.Xf3Uaw6FhP/org.macosforge.xquartz:0', 'TMPDIR':
'/var/folders/l6/s467rzgs75n91gdbkn7vr0f40000gn/T/'}
>>>
however, running it as:
/Applications/ParaView-5.4.1.app/Contents/MacOS$ ./paraview
…
the os.environ spews ALL envs in my bash shell.
If there’s another option, outside of using env vars, for dynamically getting a
user-defined string inside a Programmable Source, I’d welcome it.
