I cannot install aws cli on mac os with pip - awscli: command not found

Question

I tried to follow this tutorial.

This is what I did in the console:

pip3 install --user --upgrade awscli

after that, when I write:

pip3 --version

I'm getting:

pip 9.0.1 from /Users/user/Library/Python/3.4/lib/python/site-packages (python 3.4)

then I wrote:

pip3 install --user --upgrade awscli

this command downloaded awscli and automatically added this:

# Setting PATH for Python 3.4

# The orginal version is saved in .profile.pysave

PATH="/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.4/bin:${PATH}"

export PATH

to my .profile

Later on, just to be sure, I wrote:

source ~/.profile

and then when I type:

user$ aws

-bash: aws: command not found

I restarted the terminal with no luck also.

What's the problem here?

Answer 1

For the official AWS version, use this:

brew install awscli

For Development version, use this:

brew install awscli --HEAD

Also, you can do this to install awscli:

$ curl "https://s3.amazonaws.com/aws-cli/awscli-bundle.zip" -o "awscli-bundle.zip"

$ unzip awscli-bundle.zip

$ sudo ./awscli-bundle/install -i /usr/local/aws -b /usr/local/bin/aws
