"Executable scripts from Python packages you install will be put in
/usr/local/share/python, make sure it's on your PATH." -
from .zshrc via oh-my-zsh:
Python modules have been installed and Homebrew's site-packages is not in your Python sys.path, so you will not be able to import the modules this formula installed. If you plan to develop with these modules, please run:
mkdir -p $HOME/Library/Python/2.7/lib/python/site-packagesecho 'import site; site.addsitedir("/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages")' > $HOME/Library/Python/2.7/lib/python/site-packages/homebrew.pthafter that do something like this ~ (all of these work with pip3 & python3 as well, if one doesn't work try the other)

This describes how to use .pth files to extend sys.path.

SWIM could make a fortune making a product for python that works exactly like nvm... pvm... I'm sure it already exists, but I refuse to look it up. $_$
