The Isaac Sim documentation for reinforcement learning suggests that I should be able to run python.sh train.sh out of the box, however if you do this in the Isaac Sim docker container, you get
root@ip-172-31-78-124:/isaac-sim# ./python.sh standalone_examples/api/omni.isaac.jetbot/stable_baselines_example/train.py
running as root
Omniverse System Monitor already running.
Traceback (most recent call last):

import gym
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'gym'
There was an error running python
This documentation link should reference the python environment documentation:
This documentation also has issues, ./python.sh -m pip install gym results in the error no such option: --allow-root.
Anyways, removing the offending line from python.sh (args="$args --allow-root") fixes the pip issue.
Too many layers of redirection can cause issues like this. Ideally I’d just run python -m pip install gym and python train.py, and docker or anaconda would load the python environment. Does the Isaac team have any plans to move Isaac Sim / Gym to NVIDIA Corporation · GitHub ? There’s a few issues like this that I’d rather submit a PR for than write a bug report on a discussion forum.
