1852217 - glean.js should support the GLEAN_PYTHON env variable

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Data Platform and Tools :: Glean: SDK, defect, P2)

Description

[Alessio Placitelli [:Dexter]]

We support overriding the binary name in the other SDKs. However, in Glean.js, we do not provide this capability, making it hard to use Glean.js in environments in which the Python 3 binary is called "python" and not "python3".

We should:

• Implement the same logic in glean.js
• Improve the docs by making the use of this environment variable more discoverable

@Bruno, can you take this one?
