pyenv

Change default environment of Python interpreter.

Syntax

  • pyenv

  • pe = pyenv('Version', python_path)

  • pe = pyenv(...)

Input argument

  • python_path - a string, or row characters array: executable file name of Python or version (on Windows).

Output argument

  • pe - PythonEnvironment object.

Description

Use pyenv to modify the default version or execution mode of the Python interpreter, ensuring these adjustments persist across various Nelson sessions.

The value set by pyenv is persistent across MATLAB sessions.

Properties:

Version: string: Python version

Executable: string: Name of Python executable file

Library: string: Shared library file

Home: string: Home folder

Status: Process status: "NotLoaded" (default), "Loaded", "Terminated"

ExecutionMode: Execution mode: "InProcess" (default) or "OutOfProcess"

Use environment variables to force python environment at each startup (usefull for snapcraft or docker distribution):

__NELSON_PYTHON_VERSION__: example "3.10"

__NELSON_PYTHON_EXECUTABLE__: example "/usr/bin/python3"

__NELSON_PYTHON_LIBRARY__: example "libpython3.10.so.1.0"

__NELSON_PYTHON_HOME__: example "/usr"

All environment variables must exist and valid to be considered.

On Windows, the pyenv('Version', '3.11') function searches the Windows Registry for the Python version associated with the specified version. It first looks in the HKCU environment, and if not found, it searches in HKLM.

Examples

pe = pyenv
if ispc()
pe = pyenv('Version', '3.12')
