Install python libraries in a different directory

Hello all,

I've seen that to install any python library we just need to call this:

C:\InterSystems\IRIS\bin>irispip install --target C:\InterSystems\IRIS\mgr\python geopy

Is there a way to install the libraries in a different directory and set up the system to load the python from that other directory?

Well, sure.

When you execute python script at the beginning add this:

import sys
sys.path.append(r'C:\Temp')

Or set PYTHONPATH variable (requires IRIS restart).
