Need to create symlink in OSX for this to work. matlab command should be accessible. about python-matlab-bridge HOT 1 CLOSED

Thanks for checking this out and for your suggestion! Another way to do
this is to start the matlab object explicitly pointing to your matlab
executable:

import pymatbridge as pymat
matlab =

pymat.Matlab(matlab='/Applications/MATLAB_R2012b.app/bin/matlab')
matlab.start()

Or for the ipython magic:

ip = get_ipython()
pymat.load_ipython_extension(ip,

matlab='/Applications/MATLAB_R2012b.app/bin/matlab')

But I will also add this way (the symlink) to the Readme.

test.py and the ipython notebook magic don't work unless the matlab
command can be accessed from the shell (that wasn't the case in my MATLAB
instalation).

In order to make it work, create a symlink to the matlab executable.

For my MATLAB version, I had to do:

sudo ln -s /Applications/MATLAB_R2012b.app/bin/matlab
/Users/username/bin/matlab

Then everything worked perfectly.
You may want to add this to the README file.

Thanks for the good work.
