I can use
source ~/code/parrot-groundsdk/./products/olympe/linux/env/shell
to setup and use python Olympe programs from the terminal. But when I try to run the same program after loading the python program into the IDLE IDE I get the error below. Any suggestion on how to use the source command with IDLE.
thanks

I am not familiar with IDLE but I think that your specific error is due to the fact that IDLE doesn’t run in the olympe python3 virtual environment.
Try to launch IDLE this way instead:
python -m idlelib.idle
Source:
After starting IDLE this way I’ve hit another error io.UnsupportedOperation:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#0>", line 1, in <module>

According to the top answer of this SO question “so... if you get this error, run the command from straight up Python instead” :
I’ve just commented this non-essential line of code (init.py:23) and managed to import olympe after that. Please note that I have absolutely no idea what other issue might arise further down with IDLE…
If you’re looking for an nice interactive Python console, you should have a look at ipython, we don’t have any issue with it.
