OGS installation MacOS

#1

OGS newbie here.

Trying to install using pip
pip install --index-url Links for ogs ogs

Get the following errors:

ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement ogs (from versions: none)

ERROR: No matching distribution found for ogs

Using Python 3.9.12 (MacOS Catalina V10.15.7)

Any pointers appreciated - Thanks

Sorry - this should have had:

" pip install --index-url Links for ogs ogs "

https link replaced here with “Links for ogs”

#3

mmm…not sure how to handle this - keeps converting part of string to a link.

Used the pip instruction as per Introduction

#4

even tried this:

pip install ogs

ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement ogs (from versions: none)

ERROR: No matching distribution found for ogs

Think I am missing something… :frowning:

#5

Upgraded pip to pip-23.0.1 Same error messages.

#6

The pip packages are available only for macOS Monterey (version 12).

#7

ok…thanks…that probably explains things.

Is there an alternative installation route ? (for Catalina).

#8

Unfortunately not. You can try to build it yourself but that’s a pretty involved process… See the developer docs:

If you just want to play a bit with OGS you can also try to use it on BinderHub:

Thank you. Bit surprised that only Mac folk using Monterey are running OGS. Wil try Binder Hub…

Is someone going to build an OGS package for installation on MacOS Ventura ?
