Update Install Instructions for OS X #65

Closed ghost closed 8 years ago

ghost commented 8 years ago

Thanks for the great work on this kernel.

There are just a couple small tweaks required to make this run on OS X:

  1. Specify that Python version 2 is required and not version 3 since gyp and by extension node-gyp require Python version 2.
  2. Update last line with pip to pip install -U pyzmq jupyter.

Also, it would be safe to move the OS X instructions to the README since I have verified this on 2 computers now. Let me know if you would like me to create a Pull Request for this issue.

Also, just for diagnostic purposes:

  1. ijs --version -> 5.0.11-beta.0
  2. npm --version -> 3.7.3
  3. ipython --version -> 4.1.2
  4. sw_vers -productVersion -> 10.11.3

Best, Kshitij

Thanks for all this info. It comes at a perfect time, because I'm in the process of updating the documentation for v5.0.11.

I believe https://github.com/n-riesco/ijavascript/blob/dev/doc/install.md fixes this issue.
