What I've got: New copy of Yosemite, homebrew installation of python 2.7, Sublime Text 2 with the following packages: LaTex tools, Package Control, Rbox, and SublimeREPL. I downloaded package feedparser with Pip.

I'm new to python (and any coding beyond R) and I'm trying to set up a good workflow with Sublime Text 2. For some reason, when I try and load feedparser in the sublime REPL python window, I get "import error, no module named feedparser".

However, I can get the packaged to load from python in the terminal.

which python in terminal I get back usr/local/bin/python which is where homebrew puts python.

I have a limited understanding of this stuff, but I'm assuming its because REPL is using the old version of python that comes with OSX.

I tried changing the environment variable in the Python.sublime-build file according to this post (first answer):

Sublime Text 2: custom PATH and PYTHONPATH

Yet, it still does not work. Maybe I did it wrong? I'm not sure.

With the number of people using Sublime text and Python I know that this must get dealt with all of the time. I've lots of posts with people suggesting many different things and I'm fairly lost.

Thanks.

For Mac OSX [Racket 6.03] [Sublime Text 3]

For those interested in RACKET (DR RACKET) Repl, and are recieving an error when launching the repl "file not found".. I found out -- after spending a couple hours trying to reconfigure files -- the solution..

Open Dr Racket. -> Help -> Configure Command Line for Racket -> click "ok" box. -Done.

Launch the Repl in Sublime Text.

You can add a new menu item to Tools -> SublimeREPL -> Python. First, open your Packages/User directory by selecting Sublime Text 2 -> Preferences -> Browse Packages... and opening the User directory. Create a folder in User called SublimeREPL, inside that create a config directory, and inside that create a Python directory. Finally, make a new file in Sublime with JSON syntax and the following contents:

[
    {
        "id": "tools",
        "children":
        [
            {
                "caption": "SublimeREPL",
                "mnemonic": "r",
                "id": "SublimeREPL",
                "children":
                [
                    {
                        "caption": "Python",
                        "id": "Python",
                        "children":
                        [
                            {
                                "command": "repl_open",
                                "caption": "Python (Homebrew)",
                                "id": "repl_python",
                                "mnemonic": "p",
                                "args": 
                                {
                                    "type": "subprocess",
                                    "encoding": "utf8",
                                    "cmd": ["/usr/local/bin/python", "-i", "-u"],
                                    "cwd": "/Users/williamrudisill/Development/python",
                                    "syntax": "Packages/Python/Python.tmLanguage",
                                    "external_id": "python",
                                    "extend_env": {"PYTHONIOENCODING": "utf-8"}
                                }
                            }
                        ]
                    }
                ]
            }
        ]
    }
]

Save this file as Packages/User/SublimeREPL/config/Python/Main.sublime-menu. Make sure you edit the "cwd" parameter to set the folder you'd like the interpreter to open in.

Now, if you open Tools -> SublimeREPL -> Python there will be an item called Python (Homebrew) that you can use to open an interpreter with /usr/local/bin/python.
