How to install python modules in blender


I've been trying to install pyserial for blender, but I can only install it to python32 on my C drive, is there anything i can do to have it install to blender or have blender import from python32


Solution

  • Blender has its own python installation and libraries. You can try to install your packages to blender directly. My dir for example: ...\Blender 2.63\2.63\scripts\modules

    Otherwise, you can always hardcode the paths directly in your code with sys.path.append("...")

    More info about installing modules available here, read about python setup.py install --home=<dir>
