Python
If you need to use a different version of python than the default one installed with node OS you can use pre-installed versions found at:
/opt/python
If you need some specific version not found in this directory please contact the AIC administrators.
Virtual environment
The recommended way is to use python through a virtual environment. You need to decide which PYTHON_VERSION you want to use and where do you want to store your virtual environment (VENV_PATH). Then you can create it:
/opt/python/<PYTHON_VERSION>/bin/python3 -m venv <VENV_PATH>
You need to activate the environment before you actually use it:
source <VENV_PATH>/bin/activate
Then you should be able to use the python version of your choice. More about virtual environments can be found here
