This module finds the Python interpreter and determines the location of its executable. .. note:: When using both this and the :module:`FindPythonLibs` module, call ``find_package(PythonInterp)`` before ``find_package(PythonLibs)``. This ensures that the detected interpreter version is used to guide the selection of compatible libraries, resulting in a consistent ``PYTHON_LIBRARIES`` value. .. note:: A call to ``find_package(PythonInterp ${V})`` for Python version ``V`` may find a ``python`` executable with no version suffix. In this case no attempt is made to avoid Python executables from other versions. Use :module:`FindPython3`, :module:`FindPython2`, or :module:`FindPython` instead. Result Variables ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ This module defines the following variables: ``PythonInterp_FOUND`` Boolean indicating whether the (requested version of) Python executable is found. For backward compatibility, the ``PYTHONINTERP_FOUND`` variable is also set to the same value. ``PYTHON_VERSION_STRING`` Python version found (e.g., ``2.5.2``). ``PYTHON_VERSION_MAJOR`` Python major version found (e.g., ``2``). ``PYTHON_VERSION_MINOR`` Python minor version found (e.g., ``5``). ``PYTHON_VERSION_PATCH`` Python patch version found (e.g., ``2``). Cache Variables ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ The following cache variables may also be set: ``PYTHON_EXECUTABLE`` The path to the Python interpreter. Hints ^^^^^ This module accepts the following variables before calling ``find_package(PythonInterp)``: ``Python_ADDITIONAL_VERSIONS`` This variable can be used to specify a list of version numbers that should be taken into account when searching for Python. Examples ^^^^^^^^ Finding the Python interpreter in earlier versions of CMake: .. code-block:: cmake find_package(PythonInterp) execute_process(COMMAND ${PYTHON_EXECUTABLE} --help) Starting with CMake 3.12, the Python interpreter can be found using the :module:`FindPython` module. The equivalent example using the modern approach is: .. code-block:: cmake find_package(Python) execute_process(COMMAND ${Python_EXECUTABLE} --help) #]=======================================================================] cmake_policy(GET CMP0148 _FindPythonInterp_CMP0148) if(_FindPythonInterp_CMP0148 STREQUAL "NEW") message(FATAL_ERROR "The FindPythonInterp module has been removed by policy CMP0148.") endif() if(_FindPythonInterp_testing) set(_FindPythonInterp_included TRUE) return() endif() unset(_Python_NAMES) set(_PYTHON1_VERSIONS 1.6 1.5) set(_PYTHON2_VERSIONS 2.7 2.6 2.5 2.4 2.3 2.2 2.1 2.0) set(_PYTHON3_VERSIONS 3.14 3.13 3.12 3.11 3.10 3.9 3.8 3.7 3.6 3.5 3.4 3.3 3.2 3.1 3.0) if(PythonInterp_FIND_VERSION) if(PythonInterp_FIND_VERSION_COUNT GREATER 1) set(_PYTHON_FIND_MAJ_MIN "${PythonInterp_FIND_VERSION_MAJOR}.${PythonInterp_FIND_VERSION_MINOR}") list(APPEND _Python_NAMES python${_PYTHON_FIND_MAJ_MIN} python${PythonInterp_FIND_VERSION_MAJOR}) unset(_PYTHON_FIND_OTHER_VERSIONS) if(NOT PythonInterp_FIND_VERSION_EXACT) foreach(_PYTHON_V ${_PYTHON${PythonInterp_FIND_VERSION_MAJOR}_VERSIONS}) if(NOT _PYTHON_V VERSION_LESS _PYTHON_FIND_MAJ_MIN) list(APPEND _PYTHON_FIND_OTHER_VERSIONS ${_PYTHON_V}) endif() endforeach() endif() unset(_PYTHON_FIND_MAJ_MIN) else() list(APPEND _Python_NAMES python${PythonInterp_FIND_VERSION_MAJOR}) set(_PYTHON_FIND_OTHER_VERSIONS ${_PYTHON${PythonInterp_FIND_VERSION_MAJOR}_VERSIONS}) endif() else() set(_PYTHON_FIND_OTHER_VERSIONS ${_PYTHON3_VERSIONS} ${_PYTHON2_VERSIONS} ${_PYTHON1_VERSIONS}) endif() find_program(PYTHON_EXECUTABLE NAMES ${_Python_NAMES}) # Set up the versions we know about, in the order we will search.
