python change configuration_使用Python持久更改环境变量(Change environment variables persistently with Python)...

I'm speaking for Linux here, not sure about Windows.

Environment variables don't work that way. They are a part of the process (which is what you modify by changing os.environ), and they will propagate to child processes of your process (and their children obviously). They are in-memory only, and there is no way to "set and persist" them directly.

There are however several configuration files which allow you to set the environment on a more granular basis. These are read by various processes, and can be system-wide, specific to a user, specific to a shell, to a particular type of process etc.

Some of them are:

/etc/environment for system-wide variables

/etc/profile for shells (and their children)

Several other shell-specific files in /etc

Various dot-files in a user's home directory such as .profile, .bashrc, .bash_profile, .tcshrc and so on. Read your shell's documentation.

I believe that there are also various ways to configure environment variables launched from GUIs (e.g. from the gnome panel or something like that).

Most of the time you'll want to set environment variables for the current user only. If you only care about shells, append them to ~/.profile in this format:

NAME="VALUE"
