#### Some hints ####
# Currently kivy apps only work on monitor 1 (multiple monitor setup)
# You have to place the terminal which runs kivy on the monitor 1 or make the app fullscreen.

# Make sure you have the "command line tools" for mavericks installed!
# (xcode-select --install)

# Install brew
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/go/install)"

# Install requiered packages
brew install mercurial sdl sdl_image sdl_mixer sdl_ttf portmidi

# Install smpeg package via another brew tap
brew tap homebrew/headonly
brew install smpeg --HEAD

# Create virtualenv
sudo pip install virtualenv
virtualenv venv

# Install cython
export CFLAGS="-arch i386 -arch x86_64"
export FFLAGS="-m32 -m64"
export LDFLAGS="-Wall -undefined dynamic_lookup -bundle -arch i386 -arch x86_64"
export CC=gcc
export CXX="g++ -arch i386 -arch x86_64"
venv/bin/pip install cython==0.21.2
rm -rf cython

# Install pygame
hg clone https://bitbucket.org/pygame/pygame
cd pygame
../venv/bin/python setup.py build
../venv/bin/python setup.py install
cd ..
rm -rf pygame

# Install kivy
git clone https://github.com/kivy/kivy
cd kivy
../venv/bin/python setup.py install
cd ..
rm -rf kivy

@jacobvalenta thanks, I updated the gist. But make force was not necessary for me.

Thanks! This helped a lot

This could be a really dumb question, but why use rm -rf (remove symlinks) after installing cython, pygame and kivy? Also at L32 is there a need to specify a specific version of cython - why not let pip install the latest version? Other than these questions, thank you for this very handy set of instructions. Thanks for any answers.

@kkc15 -rf is for removing the hole directory (not symlinks). I just remove them as they are not needed anymore (as they are in the virtualenv now). Regarding the Cython version: I follow the general rule to specify a version of a package, if possible, as a further version may break the build process (you never know, but you know it worked with the one specified). Cython is a special case anyway as it behaves sometimes unpredictable...

Works Great! although it made me use Cython version 0.27.3 and used brew install smpeg instead of brew install smpeg --HEAD
