Installing Pydon on OSX

Sense/Stage: Installing on Mac from Sense/Stage on Vimeo.

Quick Installation

  • Download the source: Python client download (choose the zip option, or use this direct link)
  • Unpack the package. In Finder find the file you just downloaded and double-click it to unzip it.
  • Run the ./installation.sh script that is in the package.
    • Open up the Terminal application (you can find it in Applications/Utilities/ or do a Spotlight search for “Terminal”).
    • Once your terminal is open, type cd followed by a space, and drag the folder you just unzipped from your finder into the terminal window. Hit enter.
    • Now type sudo ./installation.sh into the terminal and hit enter.
    • The system will ask for your password. Enter your password and hit enter again (you won’t see it as you type, this is normal).

    The commands to type should be similar to these:

    cd ~/Downloads/ssdn_python-master
    sudo ./installation.sh
    Password: *

You can now start pydongui and pydoncli from anywhere on your system:

$ pydongui.py

or:

$ pydoncli.py
