In ruby the library path is provided in $:, in perl it's in @INC - how do you get the list of paths that Python searches for modules when you do an import?

You can also make additions to this path with the PYTHONPATH environment variable at runtime, in addition to:

import sys
sys.path.append('/home/user/python-libs')

I think you're looking for sys.path

import sys
print (sys.path)
user_34210 
import sys
sys.path

python -c "import sys; print('\n'.join(sys.path))"
