IntelliJ IDEA 2018.2 Help

Installing and Uninstalling Interpreter Paths

IntelliJ IDEA makes it possible to add paths to the selected interpreter. These paths will be added to the environment variable PYTHONPATH. Also, IntelliJ IDEA will index these paths and (potentially) resolve the objects of the code (for example, imports of packages).

To view the interpreter paths

  1. Open the Project Structure dialog (e.g. Ctrl+Shift+Alt+S).

  2. In the Project Structure dialog box, click SDKs node under the Platform Settings.

  3. Select the desired interpreter.

  4. View the interpreter paths in the Classpath tab:

    project structure python sdks

To add an interpreter path

  1. In the toolbar of the SDKs page of the Project Structure dialog box, click icons general add.

  2. Choose the desired path in the Select Path dialog.

To delete interpreter paths

  1. Select the paths to be deleted.

  2. In the toolbar of the SDKs page of the Project Structure dialog box, click icons general remove svg.
