$ pip3 install neovim-remote
On most systems this will install to /usr/local/bin, which is usually in $PATH
already. You're done.
If you get a permission denied error, e.g. because it tried to install to
/usr/bin, do not use sudo to force it!
Use this instead:
$ pip3 install --user neovim-remote
This will install to ~/.local/bin (Linux) or ~/Library/Python/3.x/bin
(macOS) which needs to be added to $PATH.
This will give you the correct location:
$ python3 -c 'import site; print(site.USER_BASE)'
If nvr is not in your path and you installed Python with asdf, you might need
to reshim:
$ pip3 install neovim-remote
$ asdf reshim python
If you want to test your own changes, it makes sense to put your local repo into develop mode. That way your Python environment will use the repo directly and you don't have to reinstall the package after each change:
$ git clone https://github.com/mhinz/neovim-remote
$ cd neovim-remote
$ pip3 install -e .
Now, pip3 list will show the path to the local repo after the package version.
Download the zipped
sources and install
install them with either pip3 install master.zip or by running python3 setup.py install in the unzipped directory.
