Install Python, Virtualenv, Virtualenvwrapper on OS X using Homebrew: The world's easiest guide
The world's simplest instructions in the world for installing Python, virtualenv, virtualenvwrapper on OS X using Homebrew for Apache and MySQL.
1) Apache: Use OS X's Apache installation. To run and test apache :
sudo apachectl start
sudo apachectl stop
5) Upgrade the distribution:
pip install --upgrade distribute
6) Upgrade install pip:
pip install --upgrade pip
7) Install virtualenv:
1) Apache: Use OS X's Apache installation. To run and test apache :
sudo apachectl start
sudo apachectl stop
sudo apachectl restart
2) Bashrc/Bash_Profile: If you don't have ~/.bashrc or ~/.bash_profile create them using.
2) Bashrc/Bash_Profile: If you don't have ~/.bashrc or ~/.bash_profile create them using.
touch ~/.bashrc
touch ~/.bash_profile
(unlike other terminal apps in the Linux/Unix world OS X terminal.app runs .bash_profile every time you open a new terminal window. See this excellent piece on the topic. We will come back to these files in a minute)
3) Installing Homebrew:
Then run:
brew doctor
4) Install Python. OS X comes with Python, but you want to install the latest 2.x version using Homebrew.
brew install python
4) Install Python. OS X comes with Python, but you want to install the latest 2.x version using Homebrew.
brew install python
5) Upgrade the distribution:
pip install --upgrade distribute
6) Upgrade install pip:
pip install --upgrade pip
7) Install virtualenv:
pip install virtualenv
8) Install virtualenvwrapper:
pip install virtualenvwrapper
9) Install MySQL:
brew install mysql
(to start/stop or restart MySQL type: mysql.server start/stop/restart)
10) Install MySQL-python, needed for python to talk to MySQL:
pip install MySQL-python
11) Your Path:
8) Install virtualenvwrapper:
pip install virtualenvwrapper
9) Install MySQL:
brew install mysql
(to start/stop or restart MySQL type: mysql.server start/stop/restart)
10) Install MySQL-python, needed for python to talk to MySQL:
pip install MySQL-python
11) Your Path:
sudo nano /etc/paths
make sure /usr/local/bin comes before /usr/bin. Mine looks like this:
/usr/local/bin
/usr/bin
/bin
/usr/sbin
/sbin
12) Environment Variables: Set your .bashrc and .bash_profile to include these entries respectively:
export VIRTUALENVWRAPPER_PYTHON=/usr/local/bin/python
export VIRTUALENVWRAPPER_VIRTUALENV=/usr/local/bin/virtualenv
export WORKON_HOME=$HOME/.virtualenvs
source /usr/local/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh
export VIRTUALENVWRAPPER_VIRTUALENV=/usr/local/bin/virtualenv
export WORKON_HOME=$HOME/.virtualenvs
source /usr/local/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh
(this is for .bashrc)
source ~/.bashrc
(This is for .bash_profile. Basically, .bash_profile runs every time you create a terminal window and it calls .bashrc which in os x only runs when you log in to a terminal window)
also run:
source ~/.bash_profile
source ~/.bashrc
(to execute these changes)
13) Get started. Some basic commands:
Create a new project:
mkvirtualenv MyProject (the project files are in ~/.virtualenvs)
Work on the project:
workon MyProject
Install stuff:
pip install django
Get out of there:
deactivate
Remove it:
rmvirtualenv MyProject
It's that simple! Enjoy. (Thanx Josh)
