I used the PowerShell installer for Python3.9. Cannot find the Executable anywhere on my system, and cannot get it set at the default Python for my Windows 10 system. Even Komodo can’t find it!
I have spent the about half a day trying to figure this out. How can I install Python and start writing scripts?
It’s boggles the mind that you can’t just download and install Python.
If anyone knows how to get Python3.9 installed and Windows 10 and Komodo using it, that would be really great.
Once you have the State Tool, you have a number of options available with the command set supported by the State Tool. https://docs.activestate.com/platform/state/commands/
The “state activate” command in the cut and paste installation command will give a Python in a virtual env. No, Komodo won’t know about it, and neither will Windows. Virtual environments are intended to be insulated and self contained. Komodo would have to be inside the virtual environment too, and Windows will never know about it.
If you want to expose the Python to other applications or users, you can use a different deployment command.
state deploy
will give a runtime that’s more like the old MSI installers. What it won’t give you is an uninstaller, because state deploy disconnects the runtime from the State Tool and State Tool can’t manage it any longer.
Have Komodo 12.0.1 IDE and Python 3.10.0 BOTH running on my tateLinux Laptop and Windows 10 Desktop. If you can’t run ActiveState python runtime from Komodo, try Geany 1.36 IDE. Not sure if Geany is avail for Windows 10. Maybe use Python from Python.org? Untill State tool is fixed, I won’t use State virtual environment.
