MOPUp is the macOS Python.org Updater.
If you prefer to use the binary installers from python.org, it's easy to forget
to update them. This is a program that does that; it updates them. Just pip
install mopup into a virtualenv using the Python you are using, run mopup update
and provide your password when prompted. An administrator password is required,
because the python.org binary installers require admin privileges.
Normally, it does this using a CLI in the background, but if you'd prefer, you
can run it with mopup update --interactive=true for it to launch the usual macOS GUI
Installer app.
You can also uninstall Python versions with mopup uninstall <version> (e.g.,
mopup uninstall 3.14). Use --dry-run=true to see what would be removed
without actually removing anything.
You can install MOPUp via pip from PyPI:
$ pip install mopup
Please see the Command-line Reference for details.
