pycharm doesn't see python3.7 interpreter












1















I'm using Pycharm Community 2018.1.4 on Linux Mint 19 Tara Xfce.



It works well with Python 3.5 interpreter.
I installed Python 3.7 to be the default Python interpreter on the system.



python -V command returns Python 3.7.0b3
I would like to use Python 3.7 in Pycharm.



I've tried :



which python


/usr/bin/python



which python3.7


/usr/local/bin/python3.7



When I go to File > Settings > Project and Interpreter > Add and there is no /usr/local folder and there is no python3.7 in /usr/bin



I can cd to /usr/local/bin folder in the terminal, but Pycharm just can't.
I restarted, uninstalled/reinstalled Pycharm, refreshed its inner browser, restarted my pc. Nothing changed.



What am I missing?

          You will need to add the interpreter to the list of available interpreters.



          Use which python to find out the path of the interpreter, then in the Settings > Project Interpreter > Add > System Interpreter window hit the "..." button and add that interpreter. (The screenshot below is from macOS, but it should be the same on Linux.)

            If you run python -V and get "Python 3.7.0b3", a subsequent which python will tell you which executable prints that. It doesn't need to be called python3.7 to be Python 3.7.

            If you can cd /usr/local/bin in a shell, it does exist. PyCharm is a little slow on the uptake for file system changes on occasion though – there's that refresh button in the file/directory selector in PyCharm...

          Then you can which python3.7 to find where it is.



          And then add that path to your Pycharm's Python Interpreter.

            if you already have 3.7 installed. right click and run Pycharm as admin. then it should display, and install the new packages.
