What directory is 'pythonbuild.py' located in and what was the working directory when you ran the CLI command?
If your command is 'python pythonbuild.py dev/Arduino/sample/sample.ino' then it must be executed in the directory that contains 'pythonbuild.py' since the path is given relative to the working directory (and so is 'dev/Arduino/sample/sample.ino' but we havn't gotten to it yet :).
Geany commands (by default) run with a working directory that is the directory of the current file displayed in the edit area, you can change this in the "working directory" column of the "set build commands" dialog to make it a fixed location such as the directory where 'pythonbuild.py' lives.

I tried that but I got "Invalid working directory" error. Without the %d/%f at least ran the python script but then errored since there wasn't a file to work on.
Thanks

Or just simply make the Geany build command THE SAME as the command line.

Thanks for your response Matthew. I think I will just run from the CLI. I am still getting errors when running cmds via Geany.
I did change it to an executable but that didn't work. Linux did not recognize it as a command when launched using only the file name, even with the 'shebang' in the script.
I tried your other idea about putting what works into the CLI into Geany but I still got "permission denied" error. Although I am not getting anything done, I am learning alot. : )
Well now on to see if I can get syntax highlighting working along with auto complete. Wish me luck. Thanks again.

Hello folks,I am using Linux mint with Geany 1.27
I get this error when running a command from Build->Set Build Commands/tmp/geany_run_script_KH9HJZ.sh: 7: /tmp/geany_run_script_KH9HJZ.sh: /home/joe/pythonbuild.py: Permission denied when i run from the command line it works. Here is what I put on the command line.python pythonbuild.py dev/Arduino/sample/sample.ino
The set Build Command in Geany is: /home/joe/pythonbuild.py I get the erro above when this is exectuted from Geany It looks like Geany runs a script from the tmp directory to run my py script. I just switched from windows to linux so that could be part of my problem. thanksJoe
Hi,
You probably have to mark the script executable and put a "shebang" in it. Unlike Windows, Linux doesn't go by file extension, a script has to be made executable (ex `chmod +x yourscript.py` or from your file manager) and the first line tells which interpreter to use (ex. `#!/usr/bin/env python`).
Alternatively, you could just change your build command in Geany to run the script using Python like what you ran on the command line, so it doesn't need to be executable or have a shebang line. Just put `python /home/joe/pythonbuild.py` in the build command.
