How to add the path to a local python file to be executed by a Matlab script?

Hi,

I want to execute a python function from a Matlab script. How can I add the path to the local python file to be visible to the Matlab script?

Thanks

I have founf that we can define the path to our own python environment (conda)

pyenv("Version","C:\path to\anaconda3\envs\myenv\python.exe")

Python uses an env var called PYTHONPATH to point to packages/scripts. So inside matlab, you just need to add the path you want to that env var following this: set env var

Thank you Yongjian. I found an easier solution by changing pyenv 'Version'

@Jaime Trivino Was your problem related to python environment ?

I am running my scripts just if I keep them in the current path folder, but when I use addpath() it does not work anymore... Was this the problem you had, if so how did you fix it?

Best,

Emil

You need to use this function to add the path of the folder istead of the addpath().
