Use Python 2.7 in your app

Use environmental variables to make your app use Python 2.7 instead of Python 2.6.

This feature was introduced in IBM® QRadar® 7.3.0 Patch 2 (7.3.0.20170620100024) SFS.

Add the following environmental variables to the manifest file to instruct the app to use Python 2.7:

"environment_variables":[
      {
         "name":"PATHSTART",
         "value":"\/usr\/local\/bin"
      }
   ],

The following manifest file example includes the environment variables that make the app use Python 2.7.

{
   "environment_variables":[
      {
         "name":"PATHSTART",
         "value":"\/usr\/local\/bin"
      }
   ],
   "console_ip":"10.11.12.13",
   "configuration_pages":[
      {
         "required_capabilities":[
            "ADMIN"
         ],
         "description":"Application Development",
         "text":"Develop Applications",
         "url":"bootstrapper"
      }
   ],
   "name":"Application Development",
   "log_level":"debug",
   "description":"Application for installing other applications in Development-mode.",
   "resources":{
      "memory":200
   },
   "version":"1.0.2",
   "uuid":"ae1c83d0-be94-11e5-a837-0800200c9a66",
   "app_id":1006
}
