What if you set the environment variables in the Python function? I don't speak Python, but I guess you can set environment variables in this language. Other than that, it would be interesting to know which operating system you are using and how you start the server. On Linux for example, it works quite fine to export a variable and then start the server with "pg_ctl start".
