PYTHONPATH for Textmate2?

I can not make TextMate2 to get my PYTHONPATH.

Things I tried:

  1. Put the PYTHONPATH in Environment.plist (and rebooted. This was the way TM1 got it fine.)
  2. Create env. variable PYTHONPATH in my .bash_profile
  3. Using the launchctl commands to make it known on an even lower level to OSX
  4. Adding a TM_PYTHONPATH to the TM2 preferences env. variables

This is how I verify that the PYTHONPATH is still not the one it ought to be (as compared to in an iPython session):

import sys
print(sys.path)
Solution

  • The answer was like point 4, but slightly different:

    set PYTHONPATH, not TM_PYTHONPATH as the environment variable in the TM2 preferences. (Thanks to Rob McBroom who pointed that out on the mailing list.)
