Nodebox Python

Posted by Elventear on Feb 06, 2008

Hi,

I am running Leopard and would to run Nodebox directly in the console but it seems that my options are limited. The Python that comes stock with Leopard uses PyObjc 2.0 and from what I understood NodeBox does not support it yet.

I use Python build from Fink too, but it is not a framework version so I don not know if the Console package will work. Also there is no PyObjc working in Leopard within Fink.

Any ideas?

I would like to install other modules within Nodebox as well, like Numpy and Scipy. But it has been hard for me to compile for it, specially since the Python distribution that comes in the Nodebox bundle is stripped down. Could a fully python distribution come with Nodebox, so we could compile directly against it?

Thanks!

I compiled the NodeBox app from source on Leopard, using the built-in Python, and it works great. I can import the new libraries from PyObjC 2.0 too.

If you need the version I built, let me know at delza@livingcode.org and I can upload it somewhere you can get it.
