来自cmd的Python IDLE

Question

How to open my .py script from anywhere on my pc directly into python idle form command prompt?

Is there any way so that i can type idle test.py on cmd so that it opens the test.py file in the current directory and if test.py is not available creates a new file and opens it into idle

Answer 1

You can do that by adding the directory where you have installed the idle editor the PATH environment variable.

How to do that depends on your operating system: just search the Internet for add directory to path plus your operating system: eg Windows/Ubuntu, etc.

After changing the environment variable it may be a good idea to restart your PC (to make sure that all programs use the updated version)

Answer 2

You can right click on the idle then you will can see location of it in the properties tab

Navigate to that location and call as below

C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Python 2.7>"IDLE (Python GUI).lnk" C:\Python27\projects\ping.py

Answer 3

Create a idle.bat file containing

@echo off
{Python path}\Lib\idlelib\idle "%cd%\%1"

Where {Python path} should be replaced with the directory where python is installed.

Example :-

@echo off
C:\Python36\Lib\idlelib\idle "%cd%\%1"

Copy this idle.bat file into the python directory ie {Python path} (C:\\Python36 in case of the example)

Make sure you've add python path to environment variables

Open cmd in your folder then type

idle test.py
