The instructions can be found in :ref:`from_pip`. If you are running macOS version 10.12 or older, then you should upgrade to the latest ``pip`` to connect to the Python Package Index securely. It should be noted that pip must be run as a module on macOS, and the linked ``pip`` instructions will show you how to do that.
If you are installing on macOS Mavericks (10.9), you may encounter some noise from your compiler. A workaround is to do the following::

Installing Ansible with ``pip``
--------------------------------
Ansible can be installed with ``pip``, the Python package manager. It should be noted that macOS requires a slightly different use of ``pip`` than ``*nix`` due to ``openssl`` requirements, therefore pip must be run as a module. If ``pip`` isn't already available on your system of Python, run the following commands to install it::
Ansible can be installed with ``pip``, the Python package manager. If ``pip`` isn't already available on your system of Python, run the following commands to install it::
$ curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py -o get-pip.py
$ python get-pip.py --user
Then install Ansible [1]_::
$ pip install --user ansible
For macOS, there is no need to use ``sudo`` or install additional fixes, simply access the Python module namespace for ``pip``::
$ python -m pip install --user ansible
Or if you are looking for the development version::
$ pip install --user git+https://github.com/ansible/ansible.git@devel
For macOS::
$ python -m pip install --user git+https://github.com/ansible/ansible.git@devel
If you are installing on macOS Mavericks (10.9), you may encounter some noise from your compiler. A workaround is to do the following::
$ CFLAGS=-Qunused-arguments CPPFLAGS=-Qunused-arguments pip install --user ansible
In order to use the ``paramiko`` connection plugin or modules that require ``paramiko``, install the required module [2]_::
$ pip install --user paramiko
For macOS::
$ python -m pip install --user paramiko
Ansible can also be installed inside a new or existing ``virtualenv``::
$ python -m virtualenv ansible # Create a virtualenv if one does not already exist
$ source ansible/bin/activate # Activate the virtual environment
$ pip install ansible
If you wish to install Ansible globally, run the following commands::
$ sudo python get-pip.py
$ sudo pip install ansible
$ sudo python -m pip install ansible

Please make sure you have the latest version of ``pip`` before installing Ansible.
If you have an older version of ``pip`` installed, you can upgrade by following `pip's upgrade instructions <https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installing/#upgrading-pip>`_ .

Installing the development version of Ansible
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
.. note::
You should only run Ansible from ``devel`` if you are modifying the Ansible engine, or trying out features under development. This is a rapidly changing source of code and can become unstable at any point.
The development version of Ansible can be directly installed from GitHub with pip::
$ python -m pip install --user https://github.com/ansible/ansible/archive/devel.tar.gz
Replace ``devel`` in the URL mentioned above, with any other branch or tag on GitHub to install that version::
$ python -m pip install --user https://github.com/ansible/ansible/archive/stable-2.9.tar.gz
See :ref:`from_source` for instructions on how to run Ansible directly from source, without the requirement of installation.
