Visual Studio Code – How do I install a script to path on Mac OS on VScode

Every time I install something using pip I get this warning message and the package I installed doesn’t work. I don’t understand what path is or how to fix it. I keep seeing solutions saying to simply change the files to the absolute path but fail to elaborate on how to do so. Other solutions I see seemingly only apply to windows and I’m a Mac user.

WARNING: The scripts pip, pip3 and pip3.8 are installed in '/Users/landonbragg/Library/Python/3.8/bin' which is not on PATH. Consider adding this directory to PATH or, if you prefer to suppress this warning, use --no-warn-script-location

For example of my problem, I’ve installed pytest but whenever I try to run it I get the error message…

zsh: command not found: pytest

    For the installation, try using this command python3 -m pip install <Module> instead of pip install <Module>

    Did you try to add this directory to your path?:

    /Users/landonbragg/Library/Python/3.8/bin
