How to install matplotlib, scipy, numpy, scikit learn and ipython notebook on Mountain Lion

By Austin G. Davis-Richardson

Get Homebrew and Pythonbrew

(Use their installation instructions)

Install gfortran, libpng

brew install gfortran
brew install libpng

Install Python 2.7

pythonbrew install 2.7
pythonbrew use 2.7

Clone matplotlib, scipy, numpy, sklearn and ipythonotebook from fucking master

(I'm downloading master.zip because some of the repos are quite huge)

curl -L https://github.com/numpy/numpy/archive/master.zip > numpy.zip
curl -L https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/archive/master.zip > matplotlib.zip
curl -L https://github.com/scipy/scipy/archive/master.zip > scipy.zip
curl -L https://github.com/scikit-learn/scikit-learn/archive/master.zip > sklearn.zip

Unzip and install

cd into each directory and python setup.py install

Install tornado and pyzmq

(IPython needs this for the Notebook)

pip install tornado
pip install pyzmq

That should work. Let me know if I forgot something.
