sublimetext3 - Python 3.4 on Sublime Text 3

Question

I followed these steps to run Python 3 on Sublime Text 3.

Select the menu Tools > Build > New Build System and I entered the following:

{
"cmd": ["python3", "$file"]
, "selector": "source.python"
, "file_regex": "file "(...*?)", line ([0-9]+)"
}

After that, I saved it to the following (Mac-specific) directory: ~/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages/User

but I'm getting this error when I'm trying to run my code on Python 3 in Sublime:

[Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'python3'

You need to provide the full path to python3, since Sublime Text does not read your ~/.bash_profile file. Open up Terminal, type which python3, and use that full path:

{
  "cmd": ["path/to/python3", "$file"], 
  "selector": "source.python", 
  "file_regex": "file "(...*?)", line ([0-9]+)"
}
