I am trying to install the typesafe activator (scala, AKKA, play framework, activator)
I have Yosemite OSX
My bash is Oh my ZSH
I already have JDK 1.7, installed and exported
I downloaded and unzipped the file "typesafe-activator-1.2.10-minimal". Finally I put the export path on my ~/.zshrc
but when I type activator on the terminal it prints that cant find the file
thank you
get HomeBrew.
play documentation says this :
Play install on mac
But there have been some changes to that. Now you have to do this.
Try this:
brew install typesafe-activator
And then use activator command to start it
I made a big mistake, In the ~/.zshrc where I should put
export PATH=$PATH:/relativePath/to/activator
I added the executable file to the path. I post this answer in case is helpful for someone else.
For people like me, who are reading this in 2019 (or later) and are unable to find activator recipee in homebrew, be informed that activator has been decommissioned
Good news is, it's fairly simple to create new projects (including templates for play, akka etc.) with sbt new command and Giter8 templates.
Open terminal and follow the below steps,
mkdir ~/bin
ln -s <path to your play home>/activator ~/bin
echo "export PATH=~/bin:$PATH" >> ~/.bashrc
. ~/.bashrc
These days, in 2020, it seems Activator isn't available from Homebrew anymore?
But old Activator releases remain downloadable, from e.g. https://downloads.typesafe.com/typesafe-activator/1.3.6/typesafe-activator-1.3.6.zip. (I assume other version numbers work as well.)
export PATH=$PATH:/Users/XXX/XXX/activator-dist-1.3.12/bin

Sorry if this is a stupid question. I use python/jupyter a lot and it's stopped working after updating from Mac OS High Sierra to Big Sur. I'm trying to figure out why, but I'm not great with command line stuff.
The problem. When I try python3, pip -v, conda, etc. it says "command not found". python still seems to run, but it's 2.7 and I know I had 3 (I probably had a few versions from untidy file systems). I want to avoid reinstalling all my packages and things again, because I know it's still there and I've done this a few times already.
Some clues. I know this OS upgrade moves me from bash to zsh. I've tried just switching back to bash with chsh -s /bin/zsh but it still says command not found. I also noticed the OS update creates a Mac HD (below System/Volumes) within my Mac HD, and in that second one seems to be still all my python3/conda/pip/etc. folders. Not sure if/how this matters. Or if this is just a path issue.
I just want to get Jupyter running again on my Mac without reinstalling all my myriad packages from square one. Any help appreciated!
After extreme toil and research, I finally found something that worked for me.
Find the location of your Anaconda3. For me it was in ~/opt/anaconda3
Open terminal and type source <location of anaconda3>/bin/activate and then in the next line, write conda init zsh
Close your terminal and open it again. You should see a prefix (base) when you open it again.
All in all, for me it was
rko3 ~ % source opt/anaconda3/bin/activate
rko3 ~ % conda init zsh
Let me know if this works for you!
PS. You may be tempted to change $PATH variables. Anaconda advises against that. Use this reference instead that suggests the above. https://docs.anaconda.com/anaconda/install/mac-os/
I've just resolved this exact issue on my machine after upgrading to Big Sur from Mojave.
The issue: MacOS, as of Catalina, no longer lets you use the system root folder. Anaconda used to install in this folder. After upgrading from Mojave to Big Sur, you'll likely find your anaconda3 folder, including all your environments and packages, located here: /System/Volumes/Data/anaconda3.
Here is what to do to fix it:
Open Terminal
Move the anaconda3 folder:
sudo mv /System/Volumes/Data/anaconda3 ~/
Download Anaconda's Conda Prefix Replacement (crp) tool:
curl -L https://repo.anaconda.com/pkgs/misc/cpr-exec/cpr-0.1.1-osx-64.exe -o cpr && chmod +x cpr
Run the CRP tool (this will take a few minutes):
./cpr rehome ~/anaconda3/
Source anacoda3
source ~/anaconda3/bin/activate
Initiate conda
conda init
Quit Terminal and open it again.
Edit: Someone didn't like that I ended this answer with "That's it! Enjoy". In the scenario described, the steps above were indeed all it took to resolve the issue. If you're experiencing the same issue, I hope this helps resolve it, so you can get back to enjoying your updated OS.
Seems like your environement is not activated. Zsh sources ~/.zshrc while bash sources ~/.bashrc.
You can copy lines related to conda from your ~/.bashrc to your ~/.zshrc.
AF
Open the Anaconda navigator and click on the Environments section. There you will see the base (root) and a green triangle next to it.
Click on the triangle and select Open Terminal.
Now, in the terminal you will be already in the necessary directory for anaconda and you can then update any packages.
For example, just by writing conda update --all you can update all packages available for updates.
I'm trying to install scala on my mac (Maverick).
I downloaded and unarchived it.
I then put myself from where it was unarchived and inside the /bin folder in the terminal.
But when I run "scala" or "scalac" I get :
-bash: scala: command not found
Why?
I always suggest that mac users install homebrew and use homebrew as their primary package installer to install software.
Installing scala is as simple as
brew install scala
Homebrew will also install/fix java dependencies for you and handle path issues (I believe)
I get the same issue and quickly I found everything is fine, if you write the correct path into your .bash_profile.
The only thing you need is to close current terminal and open a new one, on which Scala would work.
Hope this work for you.
do you have Java installed and available on your PATH http://sourabhbajaj.com/mac-setup/Java/README.html the same author also provides good Scala / SBT setup info http://sourabhbajaj.com/mac-setup/Java/README.html
The Version of Gedit on the gnome.org site does not seem to run on OSX Mavericks. Is there any way to fix this?
When I tried it, the problem was the version of libxml2 packaged with gedit.
Use the command "brew install libxml2"
then cp /usr/local/Cellar/libxml2/2.9.1/lib/libxml2.2.dylib /Applications/gedit.app/Contents/Resources/lib/.
In the current version of brew, the directory has changed to 2.9.2 so:
then cp /usr/local/Cellar/libxml2/2.9.2/lib/libxml2.2.dylib /Applications/gedit.app/Contents/Resources/lib/.
Having MacPorts installed and comments from above I was able to simply rm /Applications/gedit.app/Contents/Resources/lib/libxml2.2* and it used the system/macports library instead of the bundled one without error.
Just to Revise:
Having macports installed correctly. (If you just updated from e.g. OSX Lion you need to migrate macports to your new Maverics OSX System, https://trac.macports.org/wiki/Migration)
Downloading gedit-3.2.6-3
sudo port install libxml2
and rm /Applications/gedit.app/Contents/Resources/lib/libxml2.2*
Open gedit and start Coding!
For my 13-inch, Early 2011 Macbook pro it worked just fine.

If you want to use gedit from Terminal:
add
alias gedit="open -a gedit"
to
~/.bash_profile
Gedit 2.30.2 works.
But your own plugin won't work on Gedit 2.30.2.
I dont know what your goal is, but i found a easier way with another program. If installing all of this starts to get tiersome (that's what i figured out at least, since xcode needed downloading and tampering), i found sublime text 2 to work very nicely.
I found that the version of "libxml2.2.dylib", distributed with Gedit 3.2.6 is outdated.
Install "Xcode" from the App Store (if you have not already done so), then:
$ cp -p /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.9.sdk/usr/lib/libxml2.2.dylib /Applications/gedit.app/Contents/Resources/lib/libxml2.2.dylib
One solution (I'm still interested in others) is the following:
The latest version of Gedit (3.2.6-3)for OSX on the Gnome.org website crashes.
The older Gedit 2.30.2 still runs.
try version 2.26.3 of Gedit – it’s working for me on MOJAVE !

If I am guessing correctly, your aim is a GUI Text editor for convenience.
open /path/to/file
performs the same action as of double clicking on the file from Finder
Also if you want to use it with a specific application like sublime text
open -a 'Sublime Text' /path/to/file
I extensively use /usr/bin/emacs in Terminal.
I have Emacs 22 and I'd like to upgrade it to 23. I wonder how to do it.
Googling "emacs download mac" gives me Emacs.app which has its own window and user interface, but I don't want that.
I am not sure how I have /usr/bin/emacs in the first place, maybe it came with Mac OS?
You can run the Emacs.app version in a terminal like this:
/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs -nw
In my .cshrc file, I use an alias to make this easier to invoke:
alias enw '/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs -nw'
It is a standard editor included with OS X and a lot of other *nix systems along with vi/vim, and pico. Personally i wouldnt upgrade the pre-installed one. I would install from Macports, Fink, or Homebrew or compile from source myself to a different location (like /usr/local).
Install emacs from macports.
% sudo port install emacs
Then launch it from the terminal
Or you can install Emacs.app, follow the instructions here to create a ~/bin/emacs script and then launch as emacs -nw or any other options.
#!/bin/sh
exec /Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs "$#"
I was on this same search and ended up installing with Homebrew so I could get the latest version along with several libraries, as described in this answer at the Emacs Stack Exchange site:
Nowadays, I use just GNU Emacs snapshot builds. These have reasonably good OS X support, and are by far the easiest to install, and best supported by the community.
I used to get them from Emacs for Mac OS X, but now I use Homebrew, because it supports more libraries, notably GNU TLS for encrypted network connections.
All in all: Use brew install emacs --HEAD --use-git-head --with-cocoa --with-gnutls --with-rsvg --with-imagemagick :).
(Note that GNU Emacs is what comes preinstalled on Mac OS X, at least on mine as of 10.10.5)
This added a new Emacs binary at /usr/local/bin/emacs, leaving the existing installation and /usr/bin/emacs in place.
I created a symlink in /usr/local/bin pointing to the new version of emacs which was in Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/
For those who installed Emacs from source (or any other way that doesn't overwrite command line called emacs) and want to use this version in the command line, I suggest one of these two approaches:
ln -s ~/path/to/cloned/emacs/src/emacs /usr/local/bin/emacs
make sure /usr/local/bin is in your $PATH and located before /usr/bin, by executing echo $PATH
if it is not, add line export $PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH to the file ~/.bash_profile, then refresh $PATH by executing in the terminal source ~/.bash_profile
add ~/path/to/cloned/emacs/src to your $PATH.
for example, add line export $PATH=~/path/to/cloned/emacs/src:$PATH to the file ~/.bash_profile, then refresh $PATH by executing in the terminal source ~/.bash_profile
And yes, MacOS is shipped with many packages pre-installed. But, unfortunately, usually with outdated ones and no official package manager to easily upgrade those libraries. That's actually why we have Homebrew, Macports, maybe others: they serve us as MacOS package managers.
I found the following guide:
http://mark.reid.name/sap/setting-up-clojure.html
but it seems like a whole lot of manual steps, and I bet it is out of date already. Installing ClojureBox on Windows was a breeze. Does anyone know of a simple installer for it? Where can I download it, and what are the steps?
Thanks!
EDIT: Tried installing cake, got:
$ sudo gem install cake
Password:

Also tried installing using the script:
$ sudo ./cake_install.rb

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: Bad version number in .class file (ordered_set.clj:1)
EDIT 2: Now the Java version issues :) What version of Java do I need and where to download it?
$ sudo cake test
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: Bad version number in .class file (ordered_set.clj:1)
My Leopard software is up to date :(
Apple Computer supplies their own version of Java. Use the Software Update feature (available on the Apple menu) to check that you have the most up-to-date version of Java for your Mac. If you have problems with downloading, installing or using Java on Mac, please contact Apple Computer Technical Support.
EDIT: Hm ... I suspect that one of the suggestions I tried broke my ability to connect to the internet (both wired as well as wireless) on Apple :(
Clojure is also installable via Homebrew:
http://github.com/mxcl/homebrew
brew install clojure
If you just want to run clojure programs, then macports works. Bear in mind you're dependent upon the maintainer to update versions.
If you plan on writing clojure programs, then cake is a better starting point. Installation involves one of the following (your choice):
Using gem (easiest)
gem install cake
Standalone script
Download the script
Put it somewhere in your path and chmod +x cake to make it executable
Git repository
git clone git://github.com/ninjudd/cake.git
Symlink bin/cake into your path and make it executable
Cake is a full build system, but you can just use it to fire up the repl by running cake repl. There's also leiningen, but starting repls will feel faster in cake since it uses persistent JVMs.
I find Leiningen very easy to use. Just download the script, put it somewhere in your $PATH (/usr/bin/ for example) and make it executable: sudo chmod +x lein.
Now type lein repl and Leiningen will download all the files you need and create a REPL for you. It's that easy.
You may want to check CounterClockWise (an Eclipse plugin). There's a video on how to install it here. It'll give you a lot of features to play with - including a clojure REPL.
Just checked this will still work under Ubuntu. It should be the same for macs, except using whatever macs use instead of apt-get to install maven:
http://www.learningclojure.com/2010/08/clojure-emacs-swank-slime-maven-maven.html
You need to install maven, create a file, then you can just call mvn clojure:repl and everything should just work.
If you'd also like the whole emacs-swank-slime setup that's also easy now, and described there.
If you try it can you comment back here or on the blog to let me know if there are any changes I need to make for macs?
Install MacPorts and then run sudo port install clojure
I once created a package called ClojureX that was partly based on Mark's article. It's not actively maintained anymore (at least not by me), but there's no reason it wouldn't work:
