Cannot install MySQL connector/python on mac for python 3

Question

I have done huge research and I still cant find way to install the mysql connector for my mac. I tried many solutions from stackoverflow that I found and still can't do it.

/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Resources/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/Python: can't open file 'setup.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory

It gives me this error when I try to install sudo python setup.py install

I also tried homebrew and cant find any way but after I installed the connector through the website, it said that the installation was successful.

import mysql.connector
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<pyshell#0>", line 1, in <module>
    import mysql.connector
ImportError: No module named 'mysql'

I also get the error above.

Try to use homebrew, virtualenv and pip instead of executing setup.py mannually — zyxue

I am using macOS High Sierra bit confusing because two python version is available python2 is already installed, python3 i have installed through brew.

python --version

Python 2.7.10

python3 --version

Python 3.7.0

which python

/usr/bin/python

which python3

/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.7/bin/python3

install mysql-connector

pip install mysql-connector-python
pip3 install mysql-connector-python

*if you getting any error like bellow *

Could not install packages due to an EnvironmentError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/_mysql_connector.so' Consider using the --user option or check the permissions.

Try this

pip install mysql-connector-python --user
pip3 install mysql-connector-python --user
