Installing pip in virtualenv using easy_install, for TensorFlow - macos

I'm starting to experiment with TensorFlow and am following the TensorFlow guide to installing on Mac OS X, using virtualenv as recommended.
The instructions essentially boil down to the following:
sudo easy_install pip
sudo pip install --upgrade virtualenv
virtualenv --system-site-packages <mydirectory>
source ./<mydirectory>/bin/activate
easy_install -U pip
pip install --upgrade tensorflow
When I get to the easy_install -U pip step, I get the error:
"<mydirectory>/bin/easy_install: <mydirectory>/bin/python: bad interpreter: permission denied".
I can't understand what's going on here. My (usual) user has full permissions to <mydirectory>, where I believe everything should be running.
I assume running an older version of pip is not big deal, but something obviously goes wrong when I try the pip install --upgrade tensor flow step, because when I try running a Python script that uses TensorFlow I get the exception "import tensor flow as tf. Import error: no module named tensorflow".
Some help would be much appreciated please :)

Basemap install on mac without fink (I tried everything I can google)

I am a Python Noob. (Using Mac OS 10.12 & Python 3.7)
I'm trying to use mpl_toolkits.basemap
to execute the code
from mpl_toolkits.basemap import Basemap
I googled the way to get matplotlib and successfully installed it.
However, while it's possible to run "from mpl_toolkits.basemap import Basemap" in terminal on mac,
it fails to be loaded if I run the command within IDLE.
Then, I googled to figure out the issue and got the hint that
it could be resolved if I install Basemap properly.
To install Basemap, I think I need to go with "FINK".
However, Fink is only available up to 10.5 OS while mine is 10.12.
And FINK website says do not update OS before upgrading FINK.
However, it's too late for me.
Cause I updated my OS longtime ago and recently I started to learn Python Using Mac.
So I guess, if there is a way to install Basemap not using apt-get,
(the codes below is from "Python basemap module impossible to import")
sudo apt-get install libgeos-3.5.0
sudo apt-get install libgeos-dev
sudo pip install https://github.com/matplotlib/basemap/archive/master.zip
I think my issue could be cleared.
Since I'm really really noob, I'm not sure this is the reason for my failing in "from mpl_toolkits.basemap import Basemap".
What I tried so far is
1) brew install basemap
with the error of
Error: No available formula with the name "basemap"
==> Searching for a previously deleted formula (in the last month)... Warning: homebrew/core is shallow clone. To get complete history run:
git -C "$(brew --repo homebrew/core)" fetch --unshallow
2) pip install basemap
with the error of
Requirement already satisfied
3) sudo pip install https://github.com/matplotlib/basemap/archive/master.zip
with the error of
Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in
/private/tmp/pip-install-lux494o4/pyproj/
4) conda install basemap
with the following message of
All requested packages already installed.
5) conda install -c conda-forge basemap
with the following message
Preparing transaction: done Verifying transaction: done Executing
transaction: done
Can anyone help to install basemap properly so that I could run
"from mpl_toolkits.basemap import Basemap"
in my IDLe?
My IDLE Sheel keeps saying
Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in
from mpl_toolkits.basemap import Basemap ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'mpl_toolkits.basemap'
while my terminal doesn't have problem with running the code.
Appreciate it in advance.
any luck? I spent the day battling this as well. I had the most success when I tried downloading an older version of basemap.
I was using python 2.7 and this worked okay sudo -H pip2 install https://github.com/matplotlib/basemap/archive/v1.1.0.tar.gz
For python 3 try replacing pip2 with pip3 or pip.
Ran into this myself today my solution:
install libgeos on mac
brew install geos
then as you suggested use pip to install mpl_tools:
pip3 install -q https://github.com/matplotlib/basemap/archive/master.zip
This also may help:
missing libgeos_c.so on OSX
Firstly, I suggest you to set Anaconda up. Then follow below steps;
Create a new environment in anaconda.
Install Jupyter Notebook and launch it. If it works, turn it off.
Change your anaconda environment in your terminal.
Try installation commands below;
conda install ...
conda install forge ...
pip install ...

How can I install tensorflow on mac using pip?

I have been getting the same error in the picture below for the following commands: pip3 install tensorflow or pip3 install protobuf. How can I solve this problem? Thanks.
Use a virtual environment. Works most efficiently.
pip install virtualenv
virtualenv -p python3 myTestEnv
source myTestEnv/bin/activate
pip3 install --upgrade pip3
pip3 install tensorflow

Installing Tensorflow with Python 3.5 and Anaconda

I have Anaconda 3.19.3 with Python 3.5 on a Mac. Now, I would like to install TensorFlow via pip. The installation instructions here also include setup instructions for installing TensorFlow under Python 3.3+.
So, I have executed sudo easy_install --upgrade six, no problem. When I execute sudo pip3 install --upgrade https://storage.googleapis.com/tensorflow/mac/tensorflow-0.7.0-py3-none-any.whl, after downloading the necessary packages, I get the following:
Installing collected packages: setuptools, protobuf, tensorflow
Found existing installation: setuptools 19.6.2
Uninstalling setuptools-19.6.2:
Successfully uninstalled setuptools-19.6.2
Rolling back uninstall of setuptools
Exception:
...
AttributeError: _ep_map
During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:
...
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/Users/me/anaconda/lib/python3.5/site-packages/setuptools-19.6.2-py3.5.egg'
I have left out some of the error message to save space.
What is this and, more importantly, what can I do about it?
See the answer here:
Error setuptools when installing tensorflow
In particular, you could try adding the --ignore-installed tag to the end of your pip command.

Cannot install pip for python3 on mac

When I run
curl -O https://raw.github.com/pypa/pip/master/contrib/get-pip.py
sudo python3 get-pip.py
It gives me this error:

There is no problem:

Can anyone help please? Thanks!
This is a simple permissions issue. If you're installing to the system Python installation, you should need root, which is what sudo provides.
If you need to install stuff where you don't have root privileges, you need to look into Python virtual environments.

Distribute and Pip for use with Python 3.2

When installing modules with pip or distributes easy_install for python3, modules will instead install for python 2.7 or earlier. Im fairly new to both the mac operating system and python itself (4 months or so). I'd like to get distribute and pip installed and working for python 3.2.
When using easy_install or pip, things will work normally with installing for python 2.7. This is not what I wanted however and I tried to fix this by installing both pip and easy install with:
sudo curl https://raw.github.com/pypa/pip/master/contrib/get-pip.py | python3
as opposed to
sudo curl https://raw.github.com/pypa/pip/master/contrib/get-pip.py | python
This should accomplish what i wanted to do, however, after installing like that I get:
new-host-6:~ Eric$ pip install spynner
-bash: pip: command not found
If anyone has any experience with the above stated in getting pip and distributes easy_install to work for python3, help would be much appreciated.
