How to set env variable in Jupyter notebook

Question

I\'ve a problem that Jupyter can\'t see env variable in bashrc file, is there a way to load these variables in jupyter or add custome variable to it?

Answer 1

You can setup environment variables in your code as follows:

import sys,os,os.path
sys.path.append(os.path.expanduser('~/code/eol_hsrl_python'))
os.environ['HSRL_INSTRUMENT']='gvhsrl'
os.environ['HSRL_CONFIG']=os.path.expanduser('~/hsrl_config')

This if of course a temporary fix, to get a permanent one, you probably need to export the variables into your ~.profile, more information can be found here
