Hey,

I installed boussole on my Ubuntu laptop and it works great, thanks so much!!!

However, this week I tried installing in on my Mac and unfortunately it doesn't seem to work. 😢

I've tried a simple pip install boussole and pip install boussole --user. It installs fine but when I try to run a command like boussole startproject I get an error command not found: boussole.

Somehow the command boussole doesn't seem to be in my path. Any ideas why this would be and how I can fix it?

Mmmh, did you installed your currently enabled Python version with pyenv or brew ? I know it can happen with pyenv if not correctly configured for MacOS, some "shims" can be unreachable. Also with Brew if you installed a different unsupported Python version, it possibly didn't have linked your Python version binaries.

SOLVED!

Well Python actually comes pre-installed on all new versions of Mac OS, so I didn't install it myself. I did a little digging on stackoverflow, see this answer/question, looks like this is an issue for any Python CLI app not just boussole. Turns out it was a path issue and the solution was to add export PATH="/Users/<user>/Library/Python/<version>/bin:$PATH" to my bash profile. Boussole is working great now, thanks again! 😃

Might be worth adding a line in the README to help Mac users.. up to you though.

I will make a release this spring to align tox tests with the last libsass-python and will try to remember to put a notice about it, probably just a short notice using your links, i don't want to write too much on it as it could explain to a whole book..

Until now i keep your issues opened so everyone can see your resolution. Thanks for the feedback.
