[PYTHON] When I try to use pip, SSL module is not available.

Conclusion first

1. Reinstall python.

$pyenv install <The version of python you want to use>

2. Reinstall pip.

$ curl -kL https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py | python

environment

macOS 10.14.6 pyenv

Background

After a long time, I was able to use python on mac. Which module should I use with pip?

Occurrence

First of all, I searched for it.

$ pip search blurblur
Exception:

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Ouch ...

trial and error

For the time being, I will ask the teacher. It's common sense. https://qiita.com/akashixi/items/14d05ddf0a3d1176956c https://www.unknownengineer.net/entry/2018/06/20/191011 https://www.secat-blog.net/wordpress/python3-cannot-install-numpy-by-pip-fix/ Everyone is installing python3.8.0 and updating openSSL.

I imitated it, put 3.8.0 and pip it, but it didn't throw SSLError. However, when I set it to 3.6.1, the SSL Error is still the same. I also updated openssl and switched from default.

$brew install openssl
$echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/[email protected]/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bash_profile

Still, SSLError is not cured.

Solution

Reinstall python.

$ pyenv install 3.6.1

Reinstall pip as well.

$ curl -kL https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py | python

So, when I try using pip ...
