I'm learning Python in recent days and discovered I can use Sublime Text as Python text editor. However I always runned my programs at the "C:\Python34" folder. Now I tried to put my codes in another folder, out of this one, but I don't know why it's not working. Work just at the "Python34" folder...
The console status only shows "Building" and nothing...
My "Python.sublime-build" file:
{
"cmd": ["python", "-u", "$file"],
"file_regex": "^[ ]*File \"(...*?)\", line ([0-9]*)",
"selector": "source.python",
"encoding": "utf8"
}
Sublime Text 2; Python 3.4; Windows 8.1
Any idea?
Try make sure you have Python in your system path:
Windows key + Pause/Break key to shortcut to System.
Click on Advanced System Settings.
Scroll down in System Variables until you find "Path", click "edit"
Look for C:\Python34 in the string; if it's there don't worry, if not, add it in as follows:
someDirectory\lastItem;C:\Python34. Seperate with semi-colon. (for windows).
Now, you can change your Python.sublime-build file as follows:
{
"cmd": ["C://Python34/python.exe", "-u", "$file"],
"file_regex": "^[ ]*File \"(...*?)\", line ([0-9]*)",
"selector": "source.python"
}
If needed, change the directory for Python, or change "34" to whichever version you use. Should do the trick.
EDIT: Feel free to leave in your encoding, I just copy/pasted my sublime-build.

I have just started playing around with Sublime Text 3 and i am trying to create a build system for python 3.6.3. I have created a .sublime-build file with the name Python3.6.3.sublime-build which contains the following code :
{
"cmd": ["C:/Python32/python.exe", "-u", "$file"],
"file_regex": "^[ ]*File \"(...*?)\", line ([0-9]*)",
"quiet": true
}
Whenever I try to build a python file I receive this message at the bottom of the Sublime, in the place where the results from the program should be displayed:
[WinError 2] Finding the specified file was not possible by the system
[cmd: ['C:/Python32/python.exe', '-u',
'C:\\Users\\user\\Desktop\\String_examples.py']]
[dir: C:\Users\user\Desktop]
[path: C:\Program Files (x86)\ARM\ADSv1_2\bin;C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapath;C:\Windows\system32;C:\Windows;C:\Windows\System32\Wbem;C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2012b\runtime\win64;C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2012b\bin]
Sorry but the [WinError 2] message was translated in english so it may not be the exact error text.
Moreover when I open sublime I receive this error window:
Sublime Text
I am running Windows 7 if that plays any role.
Could someone please explain what did i do wrong because i am kind of stuck with this?
Thanks in advance...!
After several hours of search on the Internet i found that we need to find the right path of the python.exe file and use double backslash instead of single backslash (\) when declaring the file's path. The following answers refer to Windows users.
So the correct code is:
{
"cmd": ["C:\\Users\\user\\AppData\\Local\\Programs\\Python\\Python36-32\\python.exe", "-u", "$file"],
"file_regex": "^[ ]*File \"(...*?)\", line ([0-9]*)",
"quiet": true
}
If we have the following it will not work:
{
"cmd": ["C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36-32\python.exe", "-u", "$file"],
"file_regex": "^[ ]*File \"(...*?)\", line ([0-9]*)",
"quiet": true
}
A second way to create the python build system is with this code :
{
"cmd": ["python", "-u", "$file"],
"file_regex": "^ ]File \"(...?)\", line ([0-9]*)",
"selector": "source.python"
}
In this code notice that the file's path is absent. We only refer the file's name. So Windows will not know where to find the python.exe file and we will have an error message on the Sublime console like the one I describe in my question above. So we need to do the following steps:
1.Go here C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36-32 and copy this path
Note: Here user is the user name of my computer. It will be different in your case.
(AppData folder maybe hidden check the show hidden files option)
Now right click on Computer icon and click on PROPERTIES's option. Then select ADVANCED SYSTEM settings in left sidebar.
Now click on [Environment Variables] and then under [System variables] > [select variable] with name [Path].
Click Edit button and then in [Path] value field keep the already existing data and go to end of the line. Type semicolon ( ; ) and don't erase anything just paste the path of Python directory that you copied after the semicolon at the end of the line.
( It should be something like this ;C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36-32 )
Then save the changes and close the Sublime Text. Re-open Sublime and it should be ok.
Notice that the code "selector": "source.python"
was not included in the first explation above. Instead there was this code
"quiet": true
but it does not play any role in the solution of this problem.
After completing the procedure explained second, we have a bonus result. We can use the command python on the cmd window without receiving an error because now Windows knows where to find the python.exe file (the path for this file is now included in the PATH parameter of the Windows system).
(I understand variations of this question have been asked before, but not specifically with Python 3+ and Sublime Text 3, and I tried the solutions but none of them worked.)
Anyhow: I'm using Python 3.5. I'm trying to use a 3rd party module - Scrapy - in Sublime Text. While the module works in IDLE, it does not work in Sublime.
I tried redirecting my PYTHONPATH but that still didn't work. My syntax-specific settings for Python are:
{
"path": "/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin",
"cmd": ["python", "-u", "$file"],
"file_regex": "^[ ]*File \"(...*?)\", line ([0-9]*)",
"selector": "source.python",
"word_wrap": true,
"env": {
"PYTHONPATH": "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.5/bin"
}
I've run into this.
In your case Sublime Text 3.x needs a new build system that needs the "path" and the "cmd" defined in the new build system to correctly recognize both the location of the modules and what python command string you want to build with.
For Python 3.7 on OSX 10.14.2 I used the build file below. I assume the same will work with 3.5 or any 3.x version if modified by replacing the 3.7's with 3.5's. If you install a new version of python you will need a new build system in sublime as well.
Under tools>build system>new build system add a file containing the settings below and save it.
{
"path": "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.7/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin",
"cmd": ["/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.7/bin/python3.7", "-u", "$file"],
"file_regex": "^[ ]*File \"(...*?)\", line ([0-9]*)",
"selector": "source.python"
}
Switch to it using tools > build with.
What you need is a build system, not syntax-specific settings. Select Tools -> Build System -> New Build System... and change the contents to the following:
{
"path": "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.5/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin",
"cmd": ["/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.5/bin/python", "-u", "$file"],
"file_regex": "^[ ]*File \"(...*?)\", line ([0-9]*)",
"selector": "source.python"
}
Save the file as Packages/User/Python3.5.sublime-build where Packages is the folder opened by selecting Preferences -> Browse Packages... (when you hit Save after editing the new build system, it should automatically point you to Packages/User).
To use the build system, select Tools -> Build System -> Python3.5, then hit CtrlB (Windows, Linux) or ⌘B (OS X) when your .py file is focused.
This is what my python build looks like:
{
"cmd": ["python", "-u", "$file"],
"file_regex": "^[ ]*File \"(...*?)\", line ([0-9]*)",
"selector": "source.python"
}
I've read that I need to change what's in the "python" part of "cmd":, but I can't find what to change it to. I've seen one video where a guy made it look really easy by taking the path from the terminal. Others say to add a "path": blah blah blah. It always seems to be for Windows computers.
I've tried so many things and I really don't know what to change to make sublime text 2 to run python. Also does it make a difference if I'm using a mac vs windows?
cmd needs to be changed to the path of the python 3 executable. By default, the installer places it in ~/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.4/bin/python3. So, if your mac username is Anthony, you will need to change your build like so:
{
"cmd": ["/Users/Anthony/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.4/bin/python3", "-u", "$file"],
"file_regex": "^[ ]*File \"(...*?)\", line ([0-9]*)",
"selector": "source.python"
}
Note: When running python 3 from the terminal, you are able to use the shortcut command python3. This is because an ALIAS was set up in your .bash_profile when python was installed. However, Sublime Text doesn't read your .bash_profile, so you must specify the full path to python.
Does anyone have a step by step process for a beginner to get the latest version of Python (3.4) to work on Sublime Text 3? I tried adding Python 3 as another build but I don't think i added it correctly (the instructions were for how to add it for Sublime Text 2) because I cannot build my function when I set it to Python 3 on Sublime Text 3. Only the basic Python build version is working. How can I get Python 3.4 to work? Thanks really need help immediately
Goto Tools > Build > New Build System and enter the following.
{
"cmd": ["python3", "-u", "$file"],
"file_regex": "^[ ]*File \"(...*?)\", line ([0-9]*)",
"selector": "source.python",
"encoding": "utf8",
"path": "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.4/bin/" }
Save the file and restart Sublime Text. If it still doesn't work, check if the 'path' is correct in your case.
Tools > Build System > New Build System..
Replace this code
{
"shell_cmd": "make"
}
with this
{
"cmd": ["/usr/local/bin/python3", "-u", "$file"],
}
/usr/local/bin/python3 ==> python.exe path in your system
then save with a name.sublime-build. It will appear in build system. select the build system and run the python code by pressing Ctrl + B
Select the menu Tools > Build > New Build System and enter the following:
{
"cmd": ["python3", "$file"]
, "selector": "source.python"
, "file_regex": "file \"(...*?)\", line ([0-9]+)"
}
After that, save it to the following (Mac-specific) directory: ~/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages/User
That's all there to it.
When I press ctrl+B in SB2 in the console I get ImportError: No module named site.
How to fix it?
First make sure that you saved the file with .py extension and then try to run again. You also need to check that the Python in your .sublime-build is correct. For this look at %APPDATA%\Sublime Text 2\Python\Python.sublime-build file. This file should have something like this:
{
"cmd": ["C:\\python27\\python.exe", "-u", "$file"],
"file_regex": "^[ ]*File \"(...*?)\", line ([0-9]*)",
"selector": "source.python"
}
This is equivalent to doing the following on the command line, check that you can do:
python -u C:\your_path\your_script.py
If this doesn't work from the command line it also wont from sublime.
