问题
I'm trying to install couchapp, which uses easy_install - and is quite explicit in stating a particular version of easy_install/setuptools is needed: 0.6c6. I seem to have easy_install already on my Mac, but there's no command-line arguments to check the version. Instead of just installing a new version over the top, I'd like to see whether it's necessary first.
So: Any pointers on how I can see what version of setuptools/easy_install I have installed on my machine?
I'm not a Python developer, so I'm assuming this is a simple question. However, I've not found anything via Google or here on SOF.
回答1:
One way would be to look at the actual source file for easy_install. Do
which easy_install
to see where it's located, and then use that path in
less path/to/easy_install
The second line in my easy_install script says:
# EASY-INSTALL-ENTRY-SCRIPT: 'setuptools==0.6c11','console_scripts','easy_install'
which suggests that I have easy_install version 0.6c11.

This seems to get a lot of hits from google, so I thought I'd update for those folks. I was able to do:
easy_install --version
which produced the output
setuptools 3.4.3
I believe this only works for some (newer?) versions of setuptools

On Windows, where Python is in the Path:
python -m easy_install --version
For me, I get setuptools 7.0 as the response.
