Notes on successfully building the Retriever on OSX.
I just successfully built the Retriever on OSX 10.9 using the following process. The notes are going to be comprehensive for the moment since we've had difficulty with this in the past. I am also keeping the exact order even though it probably doesn't matter.
- Install Homebrew
- Install Xcode
- Install Python
brew install python
- Install the Xcode command line tools
xcode-select --install
- Install wxPython using Homebrew
brew install --python wxmac --devel
. - Make brew's Python the default
echo export PATH='usr/local/bin:$PATH' >> ~/.bash_profile
- Install xlrd via pip
pip install xlrd
. Nosudo
is necessary since we're using brew. - Install py2app via pip
pip install py2app
. - Clone the Retriever
git clone git@github.com:weecology/retriever.git
- Switch directories
cd retriever
- Standard install
python setup.py install
