OSX Instructions

[agzam]

Can someone please share how they do it on a Mac? I have to use a Mac (not by choice) and with every update something Python-related breaks in the system. This time it was the latest Sonoma patch. I can never get the notmuch2 bindings installed properly. I would appreciate it if someone shared their workaround for Mac. Thanks.

I generally recommended miniforge. Make a separate notmuch environment.

[paralin]

notmuch.h is not available on MacOS, not sure how to get the dev header installed.

[rhstanton]

I had the same problem. Then I tried uninstalling the MacPorts version of notmuch and installing the Homebrew version instead (brew install notmuch) and lieer installed fine.

[rhstanton]

Here are step-by-step instructions. Note that the default Python installation is now 3.12, which doesn't seem to work with leeir, so I specify 3.10 below:

• brew install notmuch
• conda create -n mail python=3.10
• conda activate mail
• pip install google-api-python-client google_auth_oauthlib
• git clone git@github.com:gauteh/lieer.git
• cd lieer
• git checkout v1.3
• pip install .

And you should be done!

Could you provide some explicit instructions about making this work?

[gauteh]

I usually recommend this guide which has specific instructions for each platform: https://mamba.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation/micromamba-installation.html

You want micromamba.

@gauteh Thanks. I actually got lucky and realized that lieer is already packaged in Nixpkgs https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/nixos-23.11/pkgs/applications/networking/lieer/default.nix#L34 so I just installed that on OSX (e.g., nix-env -iA nixpkgs.lieer) and it's working. Cheers

[gauteh]

Glad to hear it!

I am also having trouble with this on MacOS. By checking out v1.3, I was able to install lieer, however I was unable to pull in email due to an error at the 2FA step with Google. Trying to install the latest version produces the same error for me as in agzam's original message here. I'm not familiar with the python / conda / mamba ecosystem or virtual environments in general, and thus my attempts at figuring it out on my own have been unsuccessful. Any assistance would be very appreciated - thanks!
