Python.

[Mitch619911]

CentOS comes preinstalled with Python2.6.6 (I'm guessing to use something it needs).
I have a script that runs on Python 3.5+ while I install Python 5.3.1 I can't install it as a main thingy I guess so I have to use altmake, boom Python 3.5.1 installed! YAY!
Then go run my script... says I need module request, pip install requests, boom installed requests... still says I need requests, at this point, I guess requests is being installed on Python 2.6.6 (main install).

I can't for the life of me install requests module on Python3.5, anyone have any idea?
 

 

Thankssss.

instead of typing python in the terminal, type python3

 

I have added an alias to my user so that when I type python, it will use python3.  If you intend on only using Python 3.x from now on, perhaps you should consider doing the same

[Mitch619911]

Yeah I have to run it by Python3.5 file.py

I just noticed that I didn't answer your question.  To install pip for Python 3.5 for centos, use

 

sudo yum install python35-setuptools
sudo easy_install pip

I have also just noticed that I have assumed that you haven't installed pip for 3.5.  Let me know if that isn't your problem

I have pip 7.1.0 (python 2.6)

That's just from

cd
pip --version

[Mitch619911]

That's just from

cd
pip --version

To run my script I have to:

cd /opt
cd Python-3.5.1
python3.5 file.py

and it returns

just add #!/usr/bin/python3.5 at the start then just run the scripts ./script.py

sudo apt install pip3

pip3 install requests

 

I'm pretty sure just running it with python3 should work the same.

Does nothing when added to the start?
-had to replace apt with yum.

Should I just install Debian or Ubuntu?

that's just giving in lol but sure if it doesn't matter what Linux you're using.

this just tells the termin where to find the interpreter you want to use, maybe its not /usr/bin like it is on ubuntu.

Your first command might be looking for the wrong package.  On Debian-based distros, at least, the package name for pip is python3-pip--not sure if it's the same in the CentOS repos, but look for something like that.  Also make sure you don't have a bash alias that points "pip3" at the Python 2.6 pip--it seems like that might be happening since when you type "pip3 install requests" it says it's looking in the Python 2.6 directories.

 

Also, after installing, run "pip install -U pip" to upgrade pip to the newest version (per the error message)--just to make sure you're using the newest version.  You can double-check what version of Python your pip install is configured for with "pip -V" (my output is pip 9.0.1 from /home/localuser/.local/lib/python3.5/site-packages (python 3.5), which tells me it's Python 3.5).  You can also try running pip explicitly through Python with "python3 -m pip [pip commands/options]".  That'll use your PATH variable to find the Python 3 executable, which should know where its corresponding version of pip is stored if you've installed it.
