Hey, I found a solution. Although it looks like the error is stating there's an issue with this program's file, it's a symlink issue!
I ran python in the terminal and saw bash: python: command not found
I noticed that python didn't have a specified path by running whereis python and receiving python:
Therefore, I knew there was an issue with my env variable PATH.
I fixed the issue by installing pyenv, which is built exactly for this type of issue. The steps are quite complicated. So, I've outlined everything in regard to preparing for installation and subsequently using the program to solve our issue, with solutions to problems that may arise as well:
- Installation as listed on page
brew updatebrew install pyenv - Check which shell config file you need to edit (bash or zsh)
echo $0If you get zsh, you need to edit.zshrc. Otherwise, if you get bash,.bashrccd ~ls -aSearch for file.bashrcor.zshrc. - For
.bashrcfile
echo 'export PYENV_ROOT="$HOME/.pyenv"' >> ~/.bashrc
echo 'command -v pyenv >/dev/null || export PATH="$PYENV_ROOT/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bashrc
echo 'eval "$(pyenv init -)"' >> ~/.bashrc
Check the existence of ~/.profile, ~/.bash_profile or ~/.bash_login by usingcd ~ then ls -a and searching for them.
if you have any of these, then execute the three commands above, but replace the specified config file with the relevant profile file. for example, if you have ~/.profile,
echo 'export PYENV_ROOT="$HOME/.pyenv"' >> ~/.profile
echo 'command -v pyenv >/dev/null || export PATH="$PYENV_ROOT/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.profile
echo 'eval "$(pyenv init -)"' >> ~/.profile
if you have none of these files, confirm you are in the home directory by typing cd ~ and using the bash shell using the method described in step 2. If you lack the file, usetouch .profile as well as echo export BASH_SILENCE_DEPRECATION_WARNING=1 > .profile and run the above set of commands. It's highly recommended by pyenv to add these to a profile file for Bash, due to the wide array of Bash startup files.
4. Commands for altering .zshrc file
These commands allow you to edit the .zshrc file to use the pyenv command without using vim, nano, etc. to edit the config files.
echo 'export PYENV_ROOT="$HOME/.pyenv"' >> ~/.zshrc
echo 'command -v pyenv >/dev/null || export PATH="$PYENV_ROOT/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.zshrc
echo 'eval "$(pyenv init -)"' >> ~/.zshrc
For noninteractive login shells, check the existence of ~/.zprofile or ~/.zlogin and add the commands there. Discover them using the steps outlined in the Bash steps above. However, this step is not encouraged like it is with Bash, it's simply up to you.
6. Directly from pyenv:
"OPTIONAL. To fix brew doctor's warning ""config" scripts exist outside your system or Homebrew directories"
For this issue, use command: alias brew='env PATH="${PATH//$(pyenv root)\/shims:/}" brew'
7. Restart shell
exec "$SHELL"
8. Install dependencies for python
If you haven't, install Xcode Command Line Tools using xcode-select --install and Homebrew using /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
Then you can install all of the dependencies for Python using brew install openssl readline sqlite3 xz zlib tcl-tk
9. Install!
Check all current versions of python available for installation using pyenv install -l. At the time of writing, the latest stable release is 3.11.2. You will want to change your global python version to python3, or else you will run into issues with a lot of applications
pyenv install 3.11.2
pyenv global 3.11.2
These two commands install the 3.11.2 version of python, to be used globally across your user account (as opposed to a single session or directory).
However, if you try to use Python3 with brigadier, you'll run into an issue...
File "/Users/[USERNAME]/Downloads/brigadier-main/./brigadier", line 26
print "%s\n" % msg
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
SyntaxError: Missing parentheses in call to 'print'. Did you mean print(...)?
Quotes for a print statement are the issue as Python 2.7 and before uses print "statement" instead of print("statement"). Therefore, you will want to install python 2.7 and configure it locally (specific to a single directory). Considering that you will run into issues using python 2.7 instead of python 3, it's important that you do not configure it globally. Navigate to the directory containing the brigadier executable (the program file), which should be something like brigadier-main, and execute the following:
pyenv install 2.7
pyenv local 2.7
These two commands will ensure you use python 2.7 within the brigadier file.
10. run pyenv versions
You should get a result with an asterisk next to 2.7 and your current location (in the brigadier file). If so, you did everything right!
10. Test by using command python
If the problem is fixed, the interactive shell will initiate. You can then type exit() to leave.
12. Attempt to run, requests module error
If you run the program, you may get this error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./brigadier", line 14, in <module>
import requests
ImportError: No module named requests
I found a solution and it's simple, just run pip install requests from the terminal.
13. Attempt to run again...
and... Awesome! Brigadier works!
I still don't understand.... can you make a video about this? Thanks
I still don't understand.... can you make a video about this? Thanks
Okay, sure. I'll share it here once I make it.
