Problem with flask on Mac - David763 - Dec-17-2023

Hi everyone I’m running Mac OS Ventura 13.2 and I’m trying to install flask-mysqldb library using pip on the terminal by running the code :
pip install flask-mysqldb
but I keep getting the following error :

% pip install flask-mysqldb

The first few lines of your output say

Output:
/bin/sh: pkg-config: command not found

Does pkg-config installed on MacOS, or do you have to install it from Homebrew or something?

How do I install it ?

RE: Problem with flask on Mac - ndc85430 - Dec-18-2023

Are you using Homebrew? brew install pkg-config should do it (see https://formulae.brew.sh/formula/pkg-config). If you're not using Homebrew, I'm not sure.

It says command not found,I even tried it with the $ sign as explained in the link you posted

RE: Problem with flask on Mac - ndc85430 - Dec-18-2023

You need to install Homebrew if you haven't already - see https://brew.sh/. No, you don't type the $. That's just an example of the shell prompt.

Didn’t fix it

You may be better off installing pymysql and using that. I'm on ubuntu linux and get the same install problem.

RE: Problem with flask on Mac - menator01 - Dec-19-2023

This link allowed me to install without errors

Now you are using Anaconda3 then most a environment be activated,(base) is the default one.
Are a environment activated?
It's best is to make new environment and not use (base) for this.
As you see here it goes over to a other version of Python that's not Anaconda.

This should of course not happen as you install to Anaconda,see the Path to Python 3.11 is different.

/Users/amirhosein/anaconda3/lib/python3.11/site-packages/pip

Example is i use Miniconda(work the same as Anaconda) and then first active a environment then it works.

G:\div_code
λ G:\miniconda3\Scripts\activate.bat tom_env

# When a environment it has (name_of_env) 
G:\div_code
(tom_env) λ pip install flask-mysqldb
