Nov 5, 2013 · I have written a simple python program using IDLE to run it from command line. I don't have permission to save .py file in python directory (C:\program files\python33) so I saved it to C:\Pyscripts. Also python was already been added to the PATH and I can run a simple print ("Hello") in command line. I have saved this line into a py file and ...

python -m myscript from the command line, as long as you have Python installed and on your path environment variable (i.e. set to run with python, which, if installed, would typically be the case). Shebangs (#!) are a Unix thing. The shebang, as you're using it, is typically for running on a Unix platform (typically Apple or Linux).

It is always an option to enter python on the command line with the command python. then import your file so import example_file. then run the command with example_file.hello() This avoids the weird .pyc copy function that crops up every time you run python -c etc. Maybe not as convenient as a single-command, but a good quick fix to text a file ...

I'm trying to use variables and settings from that file, not to invoke a separate process. Well, simply importing the file with import filename (minus .py, needs to be in the same directory or on your PYTHONPATH) will run the file, making its variables, functions, classes, etc. available in the filename.variable namespace.

sh is a subprocess interface which lets you call programs as if they were functions. This is useful if you want to run a command multiple times. sh.ls("-l") # Run command normally ls_cmd = sh.Command("ls") # Save command as a variable ls_cmd() # Run command as if it were a function plumbum. plumbum is a library for "script-like" Python programs.

or if you want this function to be called every time you execute the script you could add the line if __name__ == "__main__": function() This will then only execute this function if the file is executed directly (i.e. you can still import it into another script without "function" being called).

If "hello.py" is in a PATH directory, and running hello 1 1 doesn't pass the command-line arguments, then the .py file association is broken. If CMD or PowerShell doesn't find "hello.py", then .PY isn't in PATHEXT. You should not need to run python hello.py 1 1. That's annoying since it requires using a qualified path for hello.py or changing ...

Oct 12, 2016 · (base) C:\>python command.py python: can't open file 'command.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory I solved it this way: navigate to the exact file location using the "cd" command. for me this was: (base) C:\>cd my_scripts this should put you specifically in the file where your .py script is located.
