Python where is python interpreter located jupyter notebook
Inside the folder (usually called python3), you will find the Next was adding another interpreter to the jupyter notebook If you have another interpreter which you want to add to the selection of kernels (Menu > Kernel > Change Kernel), then all you need to do is — create a new folder in copy the above inside it modify the path and the display name In my case, I made the following — Once done, you can check your available kernels using — This means that now you can go into the jupyter notebook menu Kernels > Change Kernels and find the above 2 kernels to switch between on the fly. After that, you can use the jupyter The one I use with my ssh-tunneling between my host and server machines is: Solution 1: Try this supposing you have a windows OS- upgrade to Jupyter with install Python3 install Jupyter again using install Python3 kernel using Then, it must work fine.
Change Interpreter in Jupyter notebook
I believe what you are looking for is how to change the Kernel you are running. If you go to the Kernel menu in Jupyter, you will see the option to change kernels.
If you want to add a new kernel from a conda environment, terminate jupyter, activate the environment you want to add a kernel for, and then run this command (requires conda install ipykernel — thx @shad):
python -m ipykernel install --user --name --display-name ""
Make sure to replace and to the name of your environment. Also, this requires you to conda install ipykernel (thanks @shad).
Once you installed the kernel, you can change to it through the above menu and even through this code snippet from a Jupyter cell:
%%javascript Jupyter.notebook.session.restart('>)
Activate first the env you want to use:
Then start jupyter afterwards:
jupyter notebook /path/to/your/dir
You can also use the following:
then check the location of the jupyter using
then you are good to go. After that, you can use the jupyter The one I use with my ssh-tunneling between my host and server machines is:
jupyter notebook --no-browser --port=1234
Visual Studio Code cannot recognize Python interpreter, Windows: 10.0.19044 x64 Python: 3.10.4 x64 bit Jupyter Notebook server: v6.4.10 Jupyter Lab: v3.3.2 VS Code Version: v1.65.2 x64 ZIP
Switch to python 3 interpreter in Jupyter
Try this supposing you have a windows OS-
- upgrade to Jupyter with pip install -U jupyter
- install Python3
- install Jupyter again using pip3 install jupyter
- install Python3 kernel using ipython3 kernelspec install-self
Else Checkout some valuable Links- StackOverflow Github Issues
pip3 install ipykernel --upgrade python3 -m ipykernel install --user
Numpy does not work in jupyter notebook, but works in terminal, In short: you are using different pythons. Your terminal python is different than the python in your jupyter.
Which method of IPython is the Jupyter Notebook executing the Python code in the cell?
As a warning, you really do not want to look at how IPython is doing things if you are trying to understand how Python code is executing. We do extremely complex things to suport weird features, like top-level async execution.
As you pointed out in your comments, the flow of code is Browser -> Server (via Websocket) -> IPykernel (via ZMQ) -> IPython.
IPython itself will do a bunch of transforms, and the code compile/exec will be here
What you are likely looking for is the compile and exec, and well as cmd module to write a REPL. I would also strongly recommend looking at prompt toolkit as a cmd replacement.
Jupyter interpreter permanently changed, What is important is the location, since this connection file refers to the available kernel.json files which actually store the details about
Jupyter interpreter permanently changed
I have spent some time researching and found a way to fix the issue and add multiple kernels to the notebook. I am not sure if this is the best way to do it, however, this could help others facing the issue.
$which python $/Users/User/opt/anaconda3/bin/python
The above command shows the default interpreter of the system however, Jupyter notebook gets its selected interpreter from a connection file which it reads during runtime. Its can be found here but the file itself is not important —
from jupyter_client import find_connection_file find_connection_file()
'/Users/User/Library/Jupyter/runtime/kernel-b1fa5520-5ae5-431a-8768-4ab4b755829f.json'
What is important is the location, since this connection file refers to the available kernel.json files which actually store the details about the interpreters available to jupyter notebook.
This location is under the same path as — ‘/Users/User/Library/Jupyter/kernels’
Here you will find a folder for each available interpreter (by default only a single folder). Inside the folder (usually called python3), you will find the kernel.json
In my case, it should have looked like below. However, the path for mine was incorrect. I changed it back to the path to my default system python as below and it fixed my first issue of getting back to the original interpreter —
< "argv": [ "/Users/User/opt/anaconda3/bin/python", #" ], "display_name": "Python 3", "language": "python" >
Next was adding another interpreter to the jupyter notebook
If you have another interpreter which you want to add to the selection of kernels (Menu > Kernel > Change Kernel), then all you need to do is —
- create a new folder in ‘/Users/User/Library/Jupyter/kernels’
- copy the above kernel.json inside it
- modify the path and the display name
In my case, I made the following —
Once done, you can check your available kernels using —
Available kernels: python3 /Users/User/Library/Jupyter/kernels/python3 tf_mac /Users/User/Library/Jupyter/kernels/tf_mac
This means that now you can go into the jupyter notebook menu Kernels > Change Kernels and find the above 2 kernels to switch between on the fly.
That’s how I solved the above issue. Open to better methods because I am sure there would be.
How to use my PyCharm Python Interpreter in Jupyter Notebook?, The simplest solution is to install Jupyter notebook in the interpreter that Pycharm happens to use and invoke Jupyter notebook from there.
Changing the Python version Jupyter uses
Sometimes you want to change the version of Python that Jupyter is using! Often this is because you want to make your command-line python command match the version that Jupyter is using.
Jupyter doesn’t use the PATH variable to figure out which Python to use, it uses specific settings called kernels. As a result, if you upgrade or change Pythons on the command line, Jupyter might still be stuck in the past!
You can read more about how this causes libraries to go missing, but we’re just going to jump into changing it here. Our process is only three quick steps:
- Confirm our Python version
- Install the ipykernel package for managing Jupyter settings
- Use ipykernel to change our default Jupyter
$ python --version Python 3.10.0 $ python -m pip install ipykernel $ python -m ipykernel install --user Installed kernelspec python3 in /Users/soma/Library/Jupyter/kernels/python3
This kernel or kernelspec is the settings file that Jupyter uses to figure out what Python it should point to. Now it’s updated, so everything should work great! Shut down your Jupyter notebook server, start a new one, and you’ll be good to go.
When I say “shut down your Jupyter notebook server,” I don’t mean close your notebook tab: that isn’t enough! You need to actually turn off and restart the entire Jupyter server. Use Ctrl+C to shut it down from the command line.
Double-checking the kernel installed correctly
If we’re nosy or suspicious, we could actually look at the kernel’s details. Read the last line of the output to see where the kernelspec (kernel specification) lives:
$ python -m ipykernel install --user Installed kernelspec python3 in /Users/soma/Library/Jupyter/kernels/python3
The settings are stored in a file called kernel.json inside of this folder. To check up on the details, we can use the cat command.
$ cat /Users/soma/Library/Jupyter/kernels/python3/kernel.json "argv": [ "/Users/soma/.pyenv/versions/3.10.0/bin/python", "-m", "ipykernel_launcher", "-f", "" ], "display_name": "Python 3 (ipykernel)", "language": "python", "metadata": "debugger": true > >
The important part here is /Users/soma/.pyenv/versions/3.10.0/bin/python — that’s the exact Python file that Jupyter will be running!

My apologies if this is not specific to Jupyterlab App.
in a notebook within Jupyterlab App, when I run:
I would like it to return

How do I specify which python Jupyterlab App uses?
The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
On MacOS, I can add new kernels by adding them to the ~/Library/Jupyter/kernels folder (https://jupyter-client.readthedocs.io/en/stable/kernels.html)
Environments should be built with repo2docker or at least REES: Reproducible Execution Environment Specification IMHO. That adds a container system dependency, but it’s cross platform and reproducible.
I put together some notes for an «nbhandler» app awhile back:
westurner/nbhandler#1
Launch a notebook server locally from a link or a downloaded file; like BinderHub for the desktop
[. ] https://github.com/machine-learning-apps/repo2docker-action is a GitHub Action that runs repo2docker and uploads to dockerhub. This is useful for projects that don’t need to be built by end users if there’s already an image to just pull
To discover local conda envs, nb_conda_kernels works. From https://github.com/Anaconda-Platform/nb_conda_kernels :
nb_conda_kernels
This extension enables a Jupyter Notebook or JupyterLab application in one conda environment to access kernels for Python, R, and other languages found in other environments. When a kernel from an external environment is selected, the kernel conda environment is automatically activated before the kernel is launched. This allows you to utilize different versions of Python, R, and other languages from a single Jupyter installation.The package works by defining a custom KernelSpecManager that scans the current set of conda environments for kernel specifications. It dynamically modifies each KernelSpec so that it can be properly run from the notebook environment. When you create a new notebook, these modified kernels will be made available in the selection list.
Jupyter lab: how to use different versions of Python
If you have jupyter notebook, but you do not have jupyter lab, you can install it like this:
from the windows 10 command line or Powershell.
Once you installed it, you can run Jupyter lab from any folder, writing in powershell:
Then, something like this will appear.
How to use a different version of Python in Jupyter lab
Jupyter lab, evolution of Jupyter notebook is a great tool to use Python code inside the browser, with a lot of enhancement that you can use to join coding in Python with markdown and with the chance to use html and also javascript inside the same page to better explain what you are doing with the code. It is a sort of IDE inside the browser that can also show inside the page widgets, graphics from matplotlib, tables from pandas etc.
Running different version on Python in Jupyter lab
You could have different versions of Python on your computer. If you do not do anything, Jupyter lab will run the default version of Python. Let’s say there is a new version of Python and you install it, making it the default one. If you need to run a different, older, version of Python in Jupyter Lab, you can do write the code that you see in the next image.
On my computer, for example, I have the version 3.6 (as default version) and also the new 3.7 version. Here is an example of use of the new dataclassee in Python 3.7, that I can’t use in versio 3.6.
%%script C:\Users\Utente\AppDAta\Local\Programs\Python\Python37\python.exe from dataclasses import dataclass @dataclass class Data: name: str age: int def printData(self): print(f'I am ') print(f'My age is ') a1 = Data("John", 35) a1.printData()
