Where is pip installed to when using get-pip.py?

Question

I just installed pip on OS X using the get-pip.py script provided by the developers. The script said it ran successfully, but I cannot execute pip from the command

Answer 1

Do you know your python path? If yes, then look under the Scripts directory.

For me (Windows user), pip it is located in

C:\Python27\Scripts\pip.exe

Correspondingly for Linux, it should be inside

/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pip

Also, if you have Homebrew installed, pip installs with python:

brew install python

And, the fact that you have python & pip installed & cannot get pip but can get python from the command line (path), pip must have been misconfigured.

If you still can't find it, you can use locate pip for Linux, or a corresponding search method for other OSs. Also, in your case, it already seems to be in

/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.3/lib/python3.3/site-packages

as per the output message.
