Path not set

Hi, trying the use this wrapper and I am getting the error

OSError: `LIBFM_PATH` is not set. Please install libFM and set the path variable (https://github.com/jfloff/pywFM#installing).

I followed the install instructions exactly, specifically making sure I did the export path part correctly. What might be going wrong here?

environmental varibales can be setup from Jupyter via following

import sys,os,os.path

os.environ[‘LIBFM_PATH’]=os.path.expanduser(‘your bin path’)

Well, that’s environment vars 101: if you want to set you variables permanently you have to set them in the appropriate .profile file

Cheers!
