Pip Installation Tool For Mac

All of this should work on Mac OS X 10.7 and 10.8. Install Xcode. Click preferences. On the window that pops up, go to the Downloads tab. Find 'command lines tools' and click the install button. Open Terminal. There are a few package managers that are specific to Python, and pip is the preferred one. Pip is a tool for easily installing and managing Python packages, that is recommended over easy_install. It is superior to easy_install in several ways, and is actively maintained. $ pip2 -V # pip pointing to the Homebrew installed Python 2 interpreter $ pip -V # pip pointing to the Homebrew installed Python 3 interpreter (if installed). Be cautious if you are using a Python install that is managed by your operating system or another package manager. Get-pip.py does not coordinate with those tools, and may leave your system in an inconsistent state.

Pip (recursive acronym for 'Pip Installs Packages' or 'Pip Installs Python') is a cross-platform package manager for installing and managing Python packages (which can be found in the Python Package Index (PyPI)) that comes with Python 2 >=2.7.9 or Python 3 >=3.4 binaries that are downloaded from python.org.

OS X (Mavericks) has Python 2.7 stock installed. But I do all my own personal Python stuff with 3.3. I just flushed my 3.3.2 install and installed the new 3.3.3. So I need to install pyserial again. I can do it the way I've done it before, which is:

  1. Download pyserial from pypi
  2. untar pyserial.tgz
  3. cd pyserial
  4. python3 setup.py install

But I'd like to do like the cool kids do, and just do something like pip3 install pyserial. But it's not clear how I get to that point. And just that point. Not interested (unless I have to be) in virtualenv yet.

The last step gives you some warnings and errors that you have to resolve. One of those will be to download and install the Mac OS X command-line tools.

  1. brew install python3
  2. create alias in your shell profile

    • eg. alias pip3='python3 -m pip' in my .zshrc

On Mac OS X Mojavepython stands for python of version 2.7 and python3 for python of version 3. The same is pip and pip3. So, to upgrade pip for python 3 do this:

Here is my simple solution:

If you have python2 and python3 both installed in your system, the pip upgrade will point to python2 by default. Hence, we must specify the version of python(python3) and use the below command:

This command will uninstall the previously installed pip and install the new version- upgrading your pip.

This will save memory and declutter your system.

For a fresh new Mac, you need to follow below steps:-

  1. Make sure you have installed Xcode
  2. sudo easy_install pip
  3. /usr/bin/ruby -e '$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)'
  4. brew doctor
  5. brew doctor
  6. brew install python3

And you are done, just type python3 on terminal and you will see python 3 installed.
