There’s no need to specify that you want to install a wheel. Pip will install the appropriate wheel for Windows, Linux or macOS. Platform-specific wheels, which contain C extensions, and therefore must be precompiled as binary distributions for a specific Python version and operating system.These are typically distributed in a zip-style archive that contains all the files necessary for a typical package installation. Python wheels that contain just pure Python code.Universal wheels (any.whl), which support both Python2 and Python3.Pip will install all “flavors” of wheels, including: Additionally, most developers simply don’t have the right tooling and experience to build everything from source code themselves. According to the Python Packaging Authority (PyPA), wheels are the preferred way that pip installs Python modules from the Python Package Index (PyPI) because they’re smaller, faster to install, and more efficient than building the package from the source code contained in an sdist. Add the following lines: echo 'eval "$(pyenv init -path)"' > ~/.zprofileĮcho 'eval "$(pyenv init -)"' > ~/.Open source Python packages can be installed from Source Distributions (sdist) or Wheels (whl). Open Terminal, then type in: brew install openssl readline sqlite3 xz zlibįinally, update the shell profile configuration, i.e ~/.zshrc if your default shell is ZSH. To make pyenv work, install build dependencies through Homebrew.
The Homebrew Python documentation recommends pyenv to manage Python environments. You lose control over “site-packages” and all the PIP packages that you had installed might become inaccessible. For example, the "youtube-dl" package uses Python as its dependency, the Python package may get updated as and when needed. Many people prefer to use Homebrew to install software packages, but should you use it for Python development? The problem with using Homebrew Python is that it’s not in your control. If you’re working on multiple Python projects, the default location, which needs sudo privileges, creates hurdles.
