[vtkusers] vtkpython on mac os?

[Tom Parker]

To share my results, I never got this completely working on my mac El Capitan, but these environment variables work for me on W10, VTK 7 and VS 2015 Community Edition.

VTK Python environment variables
C:\Python27\
C:\Python27\Scripts
C:\Software\VTK-7.0.0.rc2\bin\bin\Debug
C:\Software\VTK-7.0.0.rc2\bin\lib\Debug

PYTHONPATH

C:\Python27\lib
C:\Software\VTK-7.0.0.rc2\bin\bin\Debug
C:\Software\VTK-7.0.0.rc2\bin\lib\Debug
C:\Software\VTK-7.0.0.rc2\bin\Wrapping\Python
C:\Software\VTK-7.0.0.rc2\bin\Wrapping\Python\vtk

Now I can run python.exe and successfully import vtk.

And run all the python examples I've tested so far.

Regards,
Tom

Thank you! I'll test it and let everyone know if it works for me.

This is what I am using in my ~./bash_profile, you may not need all of it, but it worked once and I just never changed it.

export VTK=~/VTK
export PATH=$PATH:$VTK/bin
export PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:$VTK/lib/python2.7/site-packages
export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH:$VTK/lib

Hello All,
I've download the latest vtkpython-7.0.0.rc2-Darwin-64bit.dmg to my mac with El Capitan and I've fought with it for hours.
I can run the examples successfully, but only from the /Applications/vtkpython/bin folder, if I try from any other folder I get the message "ImportError: No module named vtk"
After reading the docs, googling and reading the mailing lists I've tried every combination of PYTHONHOME, PYTHONPATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH and DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH I can imagine with no joy.
I have gotten it working on my linux systems before so I can't imagine what I'm doing wrong.
Can anyone share a set of working path and environment variables with me?
Thank you,
Tom
