make python3.5 as default in AWS?
Solution 1
alternatives --set python /usr/bin/python3.5
and then back if you want to
alternatives --set python /usr/bin/python2.7
If you want to see what it currently points to
alternatives --display python
This is a system-wide setting not just for the current user. The system settings are stored in /etc/alternatives
Solution 2
A simple safe way would be to use an alias
. Place this into ~/.bashrc
or ~/.bash_aliases
file:
alias python=python3
Example
$ python --version
Python 2.7.6
$ python3 --version
Python 3.4.3
$ alias python=python3
$ python --version
Python 3.4.3
Solution 3
By default, the awscli-bundle install script runs under the system default version of Python. To answer your question you will need to know the path of Python version to use. Then run:
$ sudo /path/to/python/version awscli-bundle/install -i /usr/local/aws -b /usr/local/bin/aws
In my case I would run:
$ sudo /usr/local/bin/python3.7 awscli-bundle/install -i /usr/local/aws -b /usr/local/bin/aws
