Update command line tools mac terminal. Oct 31, 2012 Python pip: Upgrade Packages Command Under Unix or Linux last updated October 31, 2012 in Categories Linux, Python, UNIX. Jan 15, 2019 With the manual plan, before you know it, you’re on Python 2.7.10 (currently the Mac default) and the rest of the world has moved on. Here we’re going to use Homebrew to automate updates.
RIDE runs only on the regular Python, not on Jython nor IronPython. Python 2.7 is the minimum version. but RIDE 1.7.4 is the last version supporting Python 2.7. Please consider upgrading to Python 3.6 or 3.7. Python 3.8 WILL ONLY BE SUPPORTED ON FUTURE RIDE 2.0.
Most other operating systems than Windows have a recent enough Python installed by default. You can find Windows installers and plenty of other information from http://python.org.
RIDE's GUI is implemented using wxPython toolkit.
When installing wxPython, there are a series of requirements that should be installed automatically, but in some cases is better to install them before. For example, numpy under Python 2.7, requires version 1.16.1, and it can be installed before installing RIDE:
On Linux is better to install wxPython before installing RIDE. This is because the correct package should be downloaded or installed directly from wxPython. Otherwise, the system will try to build the installation package and this takes time and not allways succeeds.For example, for Ubuntu 18.0.4 with Python 3.7 and GTK3, you could use:
If RIDE is used only to edit test cases, Robot Framework does not need toinstalled at all (but we have it on the requirements file). However, the Test runner plugin requires Robot Frameworkto be separately installed.
Note
Directories added to PATH as part of the Robot Framework installation mustnot contain quotes. Otherwise RIDE may not be able to execute tests due toa bug in Python (this may not be true any longer, but still is good practice).
RIDE is no longer distributed as separate installation packages for Windows and for other platforms. We want to install with an universal method and that is using pip
.However the zip package with source code is available from the download page.
tar xzvf robotframework-ride-<version>.tar.gz
on Linux or OS X.python setup.py install
. Notice that on Linux or OS X you typically need to prefix the command with sudo
.RIDE can also be installed with pip (only pip
is the recommended method), or easy_install using either of these commands:
Go to Manage Your Content and Devices. Select the Settings tab, and then scroll down to Personal Document Settings. Under Personal Document Archiving, select Edit Archive Settings. Uncheck the box next to Enable personal document archiving to my Kindle library and click Update. Maybe you have an Amazon Kindle, or you run the Kindle app on a PC, Mac, smartphone, or tablet.

Controls that allow you to manage the syncing of your books. You to categorize and organize your Kindle library in ways very.
This installs the current released version of RIDE. You can install other versions in pre-release
mode by using:
This installation approach works on all operating systems but obviously requires you to have pip
or easy_install
installed. Notice that you may need to prefix the above commands with sudo
on unixy machines.
You can install the current development version with:
There are many options to pip
like adding a -U
when upgrading, or selecting a specific version, like in:
After a successful installation RIDE can be started from the command line by running ride.py
. Alternatively you can specify a file or directory to open as an argument like ride.py path/to/tests
.Starting from RIDE 0.54, you can also create a desktop shortcut during installation on Windows.
On Windows running ride.py
requires having <PythonInstallationDir>Scripts
on PATH. If robot command to run tests with Robot Framework works you should be fine. If it does not, seeRobot Framework installation instructions for more information about setting PATH.
If you use Cygwin on Windows, you may need to fix the shebang line in ride.py manually before running it.
To test the latest enhancements or fixes, you can easily checkout the latest RIDE sources from its version control system and run it directly from there. As a precondition you need to have Git and Invoke installed. After that, just run the following commands to clone RIDE's repository and start the latest version:
To update your clone, run git pull
in the RIDE directory.
You may see what options invoke provides with:
These are the possible tasks for our RIDE project:
Current version of invoke is:
