I started Geany from the Ubunto menu.
I ran:
*import sys*
*print(sys.path)*
First I tried Geany and got
*/tmp/geany_run_script_UR8SC0.sh: 7: ./sys: Permission denied**
**------------------**
**(program exited with code: 126)*
Then I tried Idle and got
*['/home/paul/py/test', '/home/paul', '/usr/bin',
'/usr/lib/python37.zip', '/usr/lib/python3.7',
'/usr/lib/python3.7/lib-dynload',
'/home/paul/.local/lib/python3.7/site-packages',
'/usr/local/lib/python3.7/dist-packages', '/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages']*
From the terminal I got
*['', '/usr/lib/python37.zip', '/usr/lib/python3.7',
'/usr/lib/python3.7/lib-dynload',
'/home/paul/.local/lib/python3.7/site-packages',
'/usr/local/lib/python3.7/dist-packages', '/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages']*
I think I see the problem. Python is looking in *
*
*
*
*/home/paul/.local/lib/python3.7/site-packages*
*
*
but I was sure I added
**
**
**/home/paul/py**
**
**
to PYTHONPATH
How can I change the path? An a rhetorical question. Why is Idle smarter?
Thank you for your response.
Paul

in Geany, each environment corresponds to a particular project (with
its respective settings)..

How are you starting Geany? Its possible you are starting it in a way
that PYTHONPATH is not set. Perhaps test it by running a small Python
program with Geany to print sys.path.

This is a variation of the many questions complaining that one can't
import exotic external modules, even though the import works from the
terminal. The many answers suggest fixing the execute command in the
Build screen. The difference here is that I can't import a module
from my own machine, but that it works at both the terminal and
Idle. I suspect my problem is a PATH issue. Geany seems like a very
nice editor/IDE. But if I can't import even my own modules, it's not
very useful.
My simplified directory structure:
py - root for storing python MODULES (apps) and a module of user
defined functions (included in PYTHONPATH)
----| main
main.py
----| common (for storing functions accessible by multiple modules
fun.py
The code:
main.py
from common import fun
fun.test()
fun.py
def test():
print('testing')
Ouput from Idle
========================== RESTART: C:/py/test/main.py
=========================
testing
>>>
Output from Geany
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'py'
Original exception was:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "test.py", line 1, in <module>
from py.common import fun
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'py'
