在Mac上为IntelliJ IDEA / PyCharm安装Python 3.5

Question

I'm using a third-party Python package that supports Python 3.5, but not 3.6. I've got Python 2.7 installed from my OS vendor (it's a Mac), and Python 3.6 installed through homebrew .

What's the best way for me to install 3.5 and configure IntelliJ IDEA (using its Python plugin, so it's basically equivalent to PyCharm ) to use it?

Answer 1

You can install as many Python distributions as you want and they all located in /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions . However, pip3 will only be linked to the last python distribution you installed, not the latest. For example, in my case, my pip3 is the module in python3.5 because I installed it after 3.6. If you want to use a package for a specific version, run $ python3.x -m package . python3.6 -m pip install , for example.
