Running the installer doesn't tell me how to set PATH for macOS, contrally to what README tells me

[ShunyaWatanabe]

1. Please specify the following:

• OS: [e.g. OS X, Ubuntu, Windows, etc.]: OS X

• Shell (Bash, PowerShell, Zsh, etc.): Zsh

• I have reviewed the troubleshooting tips described here and they do not solve my problem

2. Description

On README it says that 'On Linux and macOS, the output contains instructions to add the EB CLI (and Python) executable file to the shell's $PATH variable, if it isn't already in it.' but I don't get the instruction when running the installer. Below is what I get instead

~/dev ❯❯❯ python ./aws-elastic-beanstalk-cli-setup/scripts/ebcli_installer.py

Also ran into this with the same output as above.

After trying to debug the install script and getting nowhere, thought to maybe try it with python3 instead, which gave completely different output:

$ python3 scripts/ebcli_installer.py

6. Finishing up

Success!

    Note: To complete installation, ensure `eb` is in PATH. You can ensure this by executing:

    1. Bash:

       echo 'export PATH="/Users/mario/.ebcli-virtual-env/executables:$PATH"' >> ~/.bash_profile && source ~/.bash_profile

    2. Zsh:

       echo 'export PATH="/Users/mario/.ebcli-virtual-env/executables:$PATH"' >> ~/.zshenv && source ~/.zshenv

I don't know much about Python 2/3 differences to help further, but I hope this helps someone else in the interim.

NB: python3 was installed via brew install python3.

I had the same issue. Fixed by forcing python3 on macOS. Make sure your python3 directory is on the PATH. Install virtualenv using pip3.

Also check python3 --version to ensure > 3.5
