Well, long strings in the command decorator of discord.py. in particular on commands with other decorators too it's ugly

sly sleet Oct 6, 2020, 4:04 PM

#

you can split them up using implicit string concatenation

I've made a script that downloads new USB drive contents to a backup folder when plugged in, but I'm having some issues with file permission and I'm starting to wonder if there is a better way to do this in general as I'm calling robocopy from Python:

import os
import string
from ctypes import windll
import time
from subprocess import check_output, CalledProcessError


def main():
    print(get_drives())
    before = set(get_drives())
    waitfordrive = input("Please insert USB drive now, then press ENTER: ")
    print("please wait...")
    time.sleep(5)
    after = set(get_drives())
    drive_diff = after - before
    delta = len(drive_diff)

    if delta != 0:
        for drive in drive_diff:
            if os.path.isdir(f"{drive}:"):
                newly_mounted = drive
                print("There were %d drives added: %s. Newly mounted drive letter is %s" % (
                    delta, drive_diff, newly_mounted))
                try:
                    check_output(
                        f"robocopy \"{newly_mounted}:\" \"C:\\Users\\Spencer-IT\\Desktop\\{newly_mounted}\" /mir /r:5 /w:15 /mt:32 /v /np /log:backup-py-{newly_mounted}.log", shell=True, timeout=None)
                except CalledProcessError as e:
                    print(e.output)

    else:
        print("Sorry, no new drive was detected.")


def get_drives():
    drives = []
    bitmask = windll.kernel32.GetLogicalDrives()
    for letter in string.ascii_uppercase:
        if bitmask & 1:
            drives.append(letter)
        bitmask >>= 1

agile lark Oct 7, 2020, 2:25 AM

I got the docs mostly swallowed down but there's the virtual environment part that bugs me on whether or not I'm doing the right thing

Does anyone have good advice on writing/generating nicely formatted docstrings automatically?

#

Right now I use SublimeText and I've looked at AutoDocstring but wasn't sure if maybe there is a better option

#

I do have access to PyCharm if that could help but I am in general pretty disinclined towards it as I find the idea of an IDE to be overkill and I don't want to run any code from my editor

spring quarry Oct 7, 2020, 11:18 AM

there are some packages that I nearly always have in a project (pytest/pip-tools/pandas/etc) , does anyone maintain their own cookiecutter sort of thing for creating new projects? or just copy from the last one
@topaz aspen I recently created a "project template" repository, and just fork it when starting a new project. Because it's a remote for git, I can always pull updates to the template. That's better than any cookiecutter 🙂

I think the python community prefers tox over nox

sly sleet Oct 7, 2020, 12:24 PM

#

i've heard it the other way around

tawdry needle Oct 7, 2020, 12:43 PM

#

@smoky compass how would an automated docstring even look?

#

You still need to physically write the descriptions of the parameters, the return value, and how it works

#

Or would you have it generate a template that you can fill in?

#

I think Pycharm can do that

smoky compass Oct 7, 2020, 12:44 PM

#

Well like autodocstring generates a template with attrs etc that can be Google, numpy, or Sphinx format

tawdry needle Oct 7, 2020, 12:44 PM

#

Ah yeah

#

Note that for attrs specifically, you can add a triple quoted string after the declaration and sphinx will figure it out

smoky compass Oct 7, 2020, 12:45 PM

#

But I haven’t found the templating to be particularly fantastic so looking for maybe some other options

#

One of the things I hate most is trying to decide what type to make things. I started using typehints so that would be automatically done but I found I end up with hideous long options when I’m passing lists of lists/dicts etc and just cop out

#

List[Dict[str, Union[Dict[str,str], int, str]]] for example is just so ugly and takes up so much space lol

tawdry needle Oct 7, 2020, 12:48 PM

#

MYCONST: Final[int] = 3
""" Magic number for vendor """

@attr.s(slots=True)
class Coordinate:
    """ Location in the game space """

    x: float = attr.ib()
    """ Left-right location """

    y: float = attr.ib()
    """ Up-down location """

    z: float = attr.ib()
    """ Depth, i.e. distance from viewport """

#

Sphinx handles this stuff properly

smoky compass Oct 7, 2020, 12:49 PM

#

Yucky yucky attrs

tawdry needle Oct 7, 2020, 12:49 PM

#

For a long type annotations usually I assign them to a separate variable with a descriptive name

smoky compass Oct 7, 2020, 12:49 PM

#

I meant attributes rather than that library ha

tawdry needle Oct 7, 2020, 12:49 PM

#

Oh, I thought you said you wanted to use attrs

#

Well, same idea

#

It's not a special extension, it's just that Sphinx can document things defined with = by looking for a string after it in the AST

#

That's quite a messy annotation though, I agree

#

UnitSpec = Union[Dict[str,str], int, str]
UnitMapping = Dict[str, UnitSpec]

def foo(items: Iterable[UnitMapping]):
    ...

#

To me, all the extra verbosity is worth it in the end

#

It might not be worth it to you, or you might find a few cases where it's just too complicated to bother with

#

That said, I also recommend using Mapping and MutableMapping when possible instead of Dict

#

I try to be as general as possible for parameters, and as specific as possible for return types

smoky compass Oct 7, 2020, 12:54 PM

#

Thing is I don’t even use or want to use a static checker like mypy

tawdry needle Oct 7, 2020, 12:54 PM

#

Oh. Then why bother at all? (And why not?)

smoky compass Oct 7, 2020, 12:54 PM

#

I think it’s just probably easier to document function inputs/outputs in the code this way

#

Because I don’t find I need it when I’m working on the code and it just adds overhead/is another thing you have to keep happy

#

But I do need to document the code and how it all works. And I figure doing that in the code makes sense

tawdry needle Oct 7, 2020, 12:55 PM

#

Ha, I feel the opposite. It does work for me that otherwise I would have to do myself in my brain

#

I don't wanna have to remember what the input types are for anything

#

I want my IDE to yell at me and I want my static checker to yell at me if I do something wrong

smoky compass Oct 7, 2020, 12:56 PM

#

I like the idea of typehinting but I find it to be a pain in reality

tawdry needle Oct 7, 2020, 12:56 PM

#

But yes, it makes sense for documentation purposes, I still see nothing wrong with assigning things to meaningful temporary variable names

#

Often I find out if something is hard to annotate it's because its functionality is complicated

#

The bad kind of complicated

smoky compass Oct 7, 2020, 12:57 PM

#

Yeah I feel that way sometimes

#

But often the “complex” inputs are out of my control

#

Things like user input JSON data

tawdry needle Oct 7, 2020, 12:57 PM

#

Yes, like Pandas APIs....

#

Yeah, in that case you just need runtime validation

smoky compass Oct 7, 2020, 12:58 PM

#

I just used marshmallow for some JSON validation stuff and I quite liked it

#

But boy was it tiresome building the scheme

tawdry needle Oct 7, 2020, 1:08 PM

#

Sometimes you just have to type a lot

#

Marshmallow is great

#

I think you can generate JSONSchema from Marshmallow classes too, or vice versa

#

But if you already have a jsonschema i would just use that

#

Instead of rewriting it all as marshmallow classes

Hello, I'm trying to split looong functions that use Fabric 2.5 (with with statements and the c.prefix function), but I don't know how to call a function that will run a prefix then return it in my "real" function.
Example:

def do_something(c):
    with c.prefix("cd .."):
        return c

def my_function(c):
    c.run("pwd")  # /home/user/a/folder
    c = do_something(c)
    c.run("pwd")  # /home/user/a

The thing here is that I'm trying to avoid having too much nested with statements, like this:

def my_function(c, things):
    with c.prefix("cd .."):
        c.run("do something")
        with c.prefix("cd another_folder"):
            c.run("do another thing")
            for thing in things:
                with c.prefix("cd " + thing):
                    c.run("do another another thing")

Any idea ?

is there an extension on vscode that allows u to navigate to each method by a click?
like a little menu on the side that shows all of the methods in the current file

leaden tartan Oct 12, 2020, 2:17 AM

#

@digital trout vscode has a built-in symbol explorer, and i think you can filter by variable or function name. Alternatively there's an extension called Bookmark which would do the same, but using keyboard shortcuts.

#

I have setup CI in my python package using Travis, so that every time I push to the main branch, it publishes my package to PyPI. It all works as expected.
However I am wondering if this is the correct way. I looked into a few source codes if I could find something similar, but couldn't find any. So my question is: should I push packages to PyPI manually from my development machine or do it via a CI?

If your code is too long to fit in a codeblock in discord, you can paste your code here:

After pasting your code, save it by clicking the floppy disk icon in the top right, or by typing ctrl + S. After doing that, the URL should change. Copy the URL and post it here so others can see it.

I hope this question is not in the wrong channel.
I want to install a tool from git (pyxelate) via pip3 on a Windows 10 machine (64 bit, fresh Python 3.9 install with Paths added)
I am using the command "pip3 install git+https://github.com/sedthh/pyxelate.git" in the cmd console executed in admin mode.

But I get a lot of errors... Sorry if it's trivial, I tried googling the problem but had no success with the results.

@digital trout i think someone might be able to answer it better, but yea there is.

What are the pros and cons of vscode vs pycharm?

#

I'm using vscode now but i'm thinking about switching to pycharm, but i dont wanna switch if I wont be getting any upgrades

finite fulcrum Oct 13, 2020, 11:11 PM

#

Pycharm comes with a lot of things built in whereas for vscode you need to get plugins but it's all about what suits you more

#

It can be heavier because of that and most of the features that may not be available for vscode at all are available in the pro version (for example the profiler)

@low charm .ipynb notebooks primarily store their data in json format. Take these words with a grain of salt but, .ipynb are just json files converted by jupyter to something you call a jupyter notebook. Thus jupyter can read only json files (and that too only when they have a specific structure defined by jupyter). txt files might be supported by plugins but I don't think jupyter has any reason to support them natively.

I might also be wrong so yeah, if I am somebody will correct me.

it's that i shouldn't have my static-files in my django-project, but instead i should use AWS or google-Cloud to have them there, so why is that? Would it make my project vulnereable ??

hmm, static files can be served using either at application level using Django or server level that is NGINX or Apache as per your preference, by referring to AWS or Google cloud if u mean their Storage services, then u generally use them for media uploads and not static files

Okay, so, this might be a little messy.
Important : Got three versions of python for some reason (and pip doesn't work, gotta use pip3 because I dunno)
I got Atom, and installed the package python-ide, which needs Pyls (Python Language Server)
But it doesn't start, so I tried to run the help command on it, but it only works when I do it with python3.8, not python3.9

My question is, how to get Pyls to work with Python3.9, instead of Python3.8

I'm trying to integrate black into my project as a pre-commit hook using pre-commit. My .pre-commit-config.yaml is as follow:```yaml
repos:

repo: https://github.com/psf/black
rev: 20.8b1
hooks:
- id: black
  language_version: python
```which is the same as black's README recommends.

I tested it out by deliberately writing code in such a way that black would definitely correct. After a standard git add and git commit I was expecting black to fix the styling, stage again then commit the files but what I got was

📎 unknown.png

#

Why am I getting the "Failed"?

dusty maple Oct 16, 2020, 11:28 AM

#

@agile lark The black hook typically checks whether your source has already been formatted properly or not

#

I mean it's what it does in general, but, with the way it's set up, if that step fails, it'll reformat the files, then you'd have to stage the changes

is it possible to work from a docker container using local tools? If i run a bash session within a container I have a v basic setup, i don't have my editor (neovim) settings and so on - I'd like to be able to edit the code using local tools, then run it within the container

#

not sure if that's a bit too vague - have only been messing about with docker a bit

leaden tartan Oct 17, 2020, 1:26 AM

#

@topaz aspen it's possible to develop on docker containers if that's what you mean

#

can you explain what you are asking A bit more?

topaz aspen Oct 17, 2020, 1:32 AM

#

@leaden tartan sure -

create a docker image, start it - edit files using my editor on my system ( not vim within the docker image ) , run the files within the docker image.

#

is that clear? if I'm still being vague let me know 👍

leaden tartan Oct 17, 2020, 1:32 AM

#

yeah it can be done

#

docker has a system of shared volumes

#

look into it

topaz aspen Oct 17, 2020, 1:33 AM

#

@leaden tartan https://docs.docker.com/storage/volumes/ ?

Docker Documentation

Use volumes

Using volumes

#

@leaden tartan not sure this is right actually, seems to be about mounting some local volume onto the docker container, which isn't really what i want

leaden tartan Oct 17, 2020, 1:41 AM

#

what do you need, then?

topaz aspen Oct 17, 2020, 1:43 AM

#

@leaden tartan what i said? I'm not sure what you don't understand about that

#

have an image, files on teh image, edit files within image using local editor settings, save in image / run in image etc

leaden tartan Oct 17, 2020, 1:45 AM

#

Volumes can do all this. Maybe you don't understand what they can do. https://nickjanetakis.com/blog/docker-tip-12-a-much-better-development-experience-with-volumes

Nick Janetakis

Docker Tip #12: A Much Better Development Experience with Volumes

If you're creating apps written in dynamic languages such as Ruby, Python or Node then you should be using volumes in development.

topaz aspen Oct 17, 2020, 1:47 AM

#

@leaden tartan right - so the code isn't in the container then

#

we can use volumes to mount in our app code directly into a running container

leaden tartan Oct 17, 2020, 1:52 AM

#

yeah the code lives inside the volume too

topaz aspen Oct 17, 2020, 1:52 AM

#

hrm - it seems as tho the workflow here is to edit the code locally then copy it into the container?

leaden tartan Oct 17, 2020, 1:52 AM

#

so basically if you drop into an interactive shell and then do ls you'll find all your code inside the container.

#

hrm - it seems as tho the workflow here is to edit the code locally then copy it into the container?
@topaz aspen you don't have to do it manually, Docker does that all for you. But yeah that's what it is.

#

I Don't really know if the code is actually being copied under the hood because docker is really complex to understand. But I do know that it works.

topaz aspen Oct 17, 2020, 1:54 AM

#

hrm ok - just the reason is that i wanted to have a mess about with the pandas docker container, so I wanted to edit the pandas source code, but I need to run it from docker and stuff

leaden tartan Oct 17, 2020, 1:55 AM

#

that can be done too

#

you don't have to get the code locally then

topaz aspen Oct 17, 2020, 1:55 AM

#

that's why i was wanting to edit it locally - but run from docker / have teh code in docker edited

#

yeah - the main thing is being able to use my editor and stuff locally really, rather than messing about setting one up inthe container

leaden tartan Oct 17, 2020, 1:56 AM

#

that's why i was wanting to edit it locally - but run from docker / have teh code in docker edited
@topaz aspen you have to clone the pandas source code, set up a volume and then continue

topaz aspen Oct 17, 2020, 1:56 AM

#

yeah i've done all that

leaden tartan Oct 17, 2020, 1:56 AM

#

imo using docker for a python only project is not worth it

topaz aspen Oct 17, 2020, 1:57 AM

#

there's some stuff to compile which is easier with docker tho

leaden tartan Oct 17, 2020, 2:02 AM

#

ah right I forgot that pandas is implemented in C

#

you're right then

#

docker would be easier

topaz aspen Oct 17, 2020, 2:02 AM

#

yeah, compiling the docker is fine - i just don't want to have to bother setting up tooling within it

Hey guys.
A bit of a stupid question but.....
I have been making my commits to my master branch. I want to move the full history to a new branch called alpha-bot whilest retaining the full history.
I've looked on google but people are suggesting on resetting the head. I don't want to lose my git history etc. Can someone help?

I have about 8 unpublished commits made to the master branch that I want moving to alpha-bot

doesn't git checkout -b alpha-bot work?

sturdy shore Oct 18, 2020, 2:05 AM

#

Well when I do that it moves the files over and it looks like it keeps the history but I was unsure if I do a publish if it would still publish it to master as they were committed to there.

#

Its 3am and I don't want fuck it up

leaden tartan Oct 18, 2020, 2:07 AM

#

that command will create an entirely new branch based off commits on master branch, create a new branch and check out it

#

there's absolutely no chance of losing any committed data

then after you confirmed everything is correct

you can reset master to 8 commits back

@atomic granite you can just install anaconda or conda 3.8 or something and

and similarly deactivate

So for example, after I do those steps, and I click Run Code in VSC, will it "choose" that environment to run the code in?

burnt thunder Oct 20, 2020, 10:26 PM

#

You need ahk installed for the ahk module to work

atomic granite Oct 20, 2020, 10:26 PM

#

Oh whoops I deleted my other message.

#

Yeah I used pip to install ahk to my conda environment. But it didn't get added to PATH.

#

Normally, I would use conda install ... but I couldn't find ahk on here.
https://anaconda.org/search?q=ahk

#

Perhaps I need to go to the autohotkey site and get AutoHotkey.exe...

#

idk tho

#

Or if I were to manually add it in my code with something like this

ahk = AHK(executable_path="C:\\Path\\To\\AutoHotkey.exe")

I don't know how to find the file path since I'm using a conda environment.

#

@burnt thunder What method do you think I should use?

burnt thunder Oct 20, 2020, 10:39 PM

#

Yes, you need to get autohotkey.exe

#

The python module is just a wrapper

atomic granite Oct 20, 2020, 10:39 PM

#

hmm

#

Okay. I've got AutoHotkey.exe now.
I just would like some help figuring out how to add it to PATH for my conda env, please.

atomic granite Oct 20, 2020, 11:09 PM

#

@burnt thunder I tried looking online for how to add new environment variables (PATH) to a conda env but most of them were just how to add conda to your system's PATH environment variables.

rich nymph Oct 21, 2020, 4:24 PM

#

Hmm, so when I was in windows I was able to do
code filename or foldername and it would open vs but i can't do it in mac. DOes anybody know why?

sly sleet Oct 21, 2020, 4:40 PM

#

How do you add an exe to PATH in a conda environment? I researched quite a bit online but I couldn't find anything. I'm wondering if it's even possible.

#

Im new to Python and especially vscode so how can i run my code?

proud trout Oct 21, 2020, 6:19 PM

#

alright first, you need to save that file

#

as a python file

heavy knot Oct 21, 2020, 6:19 PM

#

Hwo

proud trout Oct 21, 2020, 6:19 PM

#

ctrl + s

heavy knot Oct 21, 2020, 6:19 PM

#

Dun

proud trout Oct 21, 2020, 6:19 PM

#

what I like to do is, create a folder to keep all your python files and open that folder in vscode

#

and what is import python

heavy knot Oct 21, 2020, 6:20 PM

#

ignore that xD

#

I thought there was a python library we had to import

proud trout Oct 21, 2020, 6:20 PM

#

on you system, create a folder to keep your python scripts, I will tell you a neat trick

#

shortcut actually

heavy knot Oct 21, 2020, 6:20 PM

#

done

proud trout Oct 21, 2020, 6:21 PM

#

open your terminal and navigate to that folder

#

done?

heavy knot Oct 21, 2020, 6:23 PM

#

OH WAIT I DONT HAVE PYTHONG DOWNLOADED I JUST REALIZED LOL

proud trout Oct 21, 2020, 6:23 PM

#

F

#

heavy knot Oct 21, 2020, 6:23 PM

#

it must've been deleted when I changed my windows version

proud trout Oct 21, 2020, 6:27 PM

#

huh

#

type python in your cmd/terminal, what do you get

heavy knot Oct 21, 2020, 6:28 PM

#

YEAYAYEAY I did it

#

What is Pylint?

#

And guys Im so sorry Im annoying yall by asking the stupidest questions

proud trout Oct 21, 2020, 6:32 PM

#

pylint is a linter, so when you save your file, it will lint your python file, like removing spaces, ordering, etc

Hello friends

#

Strange problem here (Python 3.7.6. pyinstaller 4.0, Windows 10).

I have tried PyInstaller many times, testing from Hello World console programs to GUI programs. All of them runs fine with "python program.py". But no one worked with PyInstaller.

PyInstaller generates the .exe files without errors.

But when I try to run then (from cmd or powershell), they just exit with no message.

A perfect silent fail.

Typyig "test.exe [Enter]" is like typing "[Enter]" alone. The prompt cursor just jumps to the next line. No message is printed. Double-clicking on a PyInstaller generated .exe produces no effects, also.

#

I have tried to use the PyInstaller with the same console Hello World code (I've mentioned above) on Windows Subsystem for Linux and it worked fine

opaque kettle Oct 21, 2020, 8:47 PM

#

pyinstaller's never worked for me, I've used auto-py-to-exe instead

#

there's multiple others, but it's got a decent ui

atomic granite Oct 21, 2020, 9:30 PM

#

How can you add an exe to PATH in a conda venv?

sly sleet Oct 21, 2020, 11:27 PM

#

lmk if this is the wrong channel

#

does anyone know where the responses from the Github API are documented? The documentation only lists the endpoints and parameters, but not the actual responses

tawny temple Oct 21, 2020, 11:29 PM

#

docs.github.com has responses

#

Maybe not all endpoints have responses documented? Or you may be on their old docs website

sly sleet Oct 21, 2020, 11:33 PM

#

arent those just examples

#

even though many are self explanatory, some aren't, like for instance, idk what temp_clone_token is supposed to be under repos because its not documented anywhere

tawny temple Oct 21, 2020, 11:50 PM

#

Yes, I suppose they are examples. But I don't have reason to believe they arenät comprehensive or misrepresentative of what they'd be in practice

#

They don't document each key in the response, but I didn't understand you were asking for that, if that is the case.

hey so does anybody know why doesn't the command work??
if u could help me then pls ping me

sly sleet Oct 22, 2020, 4:26 AM

#

add it to PATH

#

find the folder where its installed

rich nymph Oct 22, 2020, 5:04 AM

#

hmm

#

ok

#

add it to PATH
@sly sleet add VSC to the path?

sly sleet Oct 22, 2020, 6:21 AM

#

Yes

Hey guys, is there a way of automatically formatting code to a style guide like pep8? either while writing and/or formatting the whole file. Linting works, but it only shows me the problems and I have to manually fix them

eternal flicker Oct 22, 2020, 9:08 AM

#

@pine otter There's https://github.com/psf/black, which should be easy to setup in most IDE/code editors

#

the term for the tool is code formatter, if you want to explore similar tools

pine otter Oct 22, 2020, 9:14 AM

#

thank you 🙂

#

I'm using VSCode, so any suggestions in that regard would be welcome too, but this already really helped, thx

rich nymph Oct 22, 2020, 10:28 AM

#

how would I add vsc to path?

pine otter Oct 22, 2020, 11:03 AM

#

Code formatting: autopep8 vs black vs yapf?

sly sleet Oct 22, 2020, 11:39 AM

#

it depends

#

autopep8 does the least formatting needed to satisfy pep8

pine otter Oct 22, 2020, 11:42 AM

#

what would you recommend?

sly sleet Oct 22, 2020, 11:42 AM

#

black is faster and less configurability(but that's a "feature")

#

yapf is pretty configurable

#

either black or yapf, probably black

pine otter Oct 22, 2020, 11:43 AM

#

thx 🙂

Your branch and 'origin/master' have diverged,
and have 2 and 3 different commits each, respectively.
  (use "git pull" to merge the remote branch into yours)

You have unmerged paths.
  (fix conflicts and run "git commit")
  (use "git merge --abort" to abort the merge)

#

could someone help with this

sly sleet Oct 22, 2020, 1:56 PM

#

git pull

#

wait nvm

#

git status

sand thistle Oct 22, 2020, 1:56 PM

@sly sleet

im assuming this

        both modified:   staffDashboard/templates/staffdashboard.xhtml```

civic hound Oct 22, 2020, 2:41 PM

#

yes

rich nymph Oct 22, 2020, 2:41 PM

#

yes what were u saying

#

and what is path?

civic hound Oct 22, 2020, 2:42 PM

#

to set the PATH on a mac you can use the terminal like on windows, but as you said, you could mess it up

rich nymph Oct 22, 2020, 2:42 PM

#

like i want to be able to use the code command and it should be able to open vsc

#

yes so is there a safer alternative?

civic hound Oct 22, 2020, 2:42 PM

#

editing your systems PATH is never safe. but you can do it safer

rich nymph Oct 22, 2020, 2:43 PM

#

hmm how ?

civic hound Oct 22, 2020, 2:43 PM

#

so, do you have a custom terminal for you mac?

rich nymph Oct 22, 2020, 2:43 PM

#

i don't

civic hound Oct 22, 2020, 2:43 PM

#

then ill assume your using bash

#

do you know your way around using the terminal app?

rich nymph Oct 22, 2020, 2:43 PM

#

This is my terminal

📎 unknown.png

civic hound Oct 22, 2020, 2:44 PM

#

do you know any editors for your terminal?

rich nymph Oct 22, 2020, 2:44 PM

#

wdym

#

like vsc?

civic hound Oct 22, 2020, 2:44 PM

#

the terminal app has a few editors for editing files

#

vi or nano

rich nymph Oct 22, 2020, 2:45 PM

#

oh i do not know about that

civic hound Oct 22, 2020, 2:45 PM

#

try to run nano and see if you have that installed

rich nymph Oct 22, 2020, 2:45 PM

#

ok

#

oh it opens up something

civic hound Oct 22, 2020, 2:45 PM

#

cool

#

exit it

#

cmd+X (i think)

rich nymph Oct 22, 2020, 2:45 PM

#

#

i think

rich nymph Oct 22, 2020, 2:46 PM

#

ok i exited it

civic hound Oct 22, 2020, 2:46 PM

#

and you should be back to the terminal

#

lets check if you have a bash profile script installed

rich nymph Oct 22, 2020, 2:47 PM

#

ok

civic hound Oct 22, 2020, 2:47 PM

#

are you in your home folder?

#

cd ~

rich nymph Oct 22, 2020, 2:47 PM

#

@civic hound I just want to say thankyou I really apprecieate it . And wdym by home folder

civic hound Oct 22, 2020, 2:47 PM

#

on a mac the home folder is the folder with your name on it

rich nymph Oct 22, 2020, 2:47 PM

#

right ok i am in it now

civic hound Oct 22, 2020, 2:47 PM

#

do a ls and see if you can see folders
