Add Python installed by Homebrew to pyenv version management

Add Python installed by Homebrew to pyenv version management

1. Give the version a soft link to pyenv

   cd ~/.pyenv/versions
   ln -sfv "$(brew --prefix [email protected])" 3.9
   

2. include (the meaning is unknown and an error will be reported)

   cd "$(brew --prefix [email protected])"
   ln -sfv Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/include/python3.9 include
    include -> Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/include/python3.9
   

3. Continue to give soft links to executable files

   cd "$(brew --prefix [email protected])/bin"
   ln -sfv idle3 idle
   ln -sfv pip3 pip 
   ln -sfv python3 python
   ln -sfv wheel3 wheel
   

4. pyenv reindex

   pyenv rehash
   pyenv versions
   

   You can see that there is already a version installed by homebrew. ready to use:pyenv global 3.9

⚠️ If homebrew’s Python occupies the system (pyenv shows that it is using the system’s own system, but it which python3is actually the version of homebrew, and it pyenv globalis impossible to actually switch the version), you need:

brew unlink [email protected]
pyenv rehash

Then you try again pyenv globalto actually change the global Python version.
