Using Python

If you want to develop in Python, typically to implement a Python worker, you will need to install a recent version of Python. For more details, please refer to Chapter Meeting the Platform Requirements.

You can download and install Python from www.python.org.

You can then check your installation with the following command.

Note:

Note that, on some installations, the executable is called python3.

$ python --version
Python 3.12.0

In addition, some Python dependencies on Windows require the installation of Microsoft Visual C++ Build Tools. To do so:

Download and install the Visual Studio Installer
Run the installer to install Visual Build Tools with the Desktop Development with the C++ component enabled (from the " Workloads" tab).
