How to add/install an external python library in Typhoon Test IDE?
Last Updated 2 months ago

Here are a few steps on how to import the library successfully:

  1. First, find the portable Python that is running the Typhoon HIL toolchain. In your folder explorer address bar, type %appdata%, and then navigate to AppData\Roaming\typhoon\2024.X \python_portables\python3_portable. Copy the path to python.exe located in python3_portable.
  2. Open the command prompt (by writing cmd in the address bar of Folder Explorer) and type the following command


> "path to python" -m pip install nameOfPythonPackage


3. In the console window, you will get the message that the library is successfully installed.

    4. Now you can run the command pip list to check if the library is installed.

    > "path to python" -m pip list



       5. Now that we successfully installed the library, let’s start to use it in the Typhoon Test IDE
