How to Install Packman on macOS

Packman is a package manager and virtual environment manager for Python. It allows you to easily install and manage dependencies for your Python project.

Here's how to install Packman on your macOS machine:

  1. Open your terminal.

  2. Install Homebrew if you don't already have it by running the following command:

    /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
    
  3. Once Homebrew is installed, run the following command to install Python 3:

    brew install python
    
  4. Next, install virtualenv and pip, which are required for Packman:

    pip3 install virtualenv pip
    
  5. Finally, install Packman by running:

    pip3 install packman
    
  6. You're now ready to use Packman! Start by creating a new virtual environment for your project. This can be done by running the following command:

    packman create myenv
    

    Replace myenv with the name you want to give your virtual environment.

That's it! You now have Packman installed on your macOS machine and can use it to easily manage your Python packages and virtual environments.

If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!

Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
