When I installed Neovim with homebrew, I was prompted to run the : CheckHealth command. When I try to run the command according to the instructions, I get some WARNING and ERROR. Some of them were about Python 2 provider and Python 3 provider. I want to fix this.
## Python 2 provider
- WARNING: No Python interpreter was found with the neovim module. Using the first available for diagnostics.
- WARNING: provider/pythonx: Could not load Python 2:
/usr/local/bin/python2 does not have the neovim module installed. See provider-python.
/usr/local/bin/python2.7 does not have the neovim module installed. See provider-python.
/usr/bin/python2.6 does not have the neovim module installed. See provider-python.
/usr/local/bin/python does not have the neovim module installed. See provider-python.

n client in each version/virtualenv.

I also installed pyenv and pyenv-virtualenv with homebrew, and the shell settings (such as ʻeval "$ (pyenv init-)" `) were already done. However, no environment other than system is installed. As pointed out in the above error that there is pyenv but python3 is missing.
I'm using pyenv and pyenv-virtualenv, so if it's not installed, install it first.
I installed the latest version of each as I checked with pyenv install --list.
pyenv install 2.7.13
pyenv install 3.6.1
I created a virtualenv called neovim-2, activated it, and installed the neovim package.
pyenv virtualenv 2.7.13 neovim-2 # 2.7.Neovim with 13-Create a virtualenv called 2
pyenv shell neovim-2 #Temporarily neovim-Enable 2
pip install neovim # neovim-Install neovim package on 2
I also made neovim-3
pyenv virtualenv 3.6.1 neovim-3
pyenv shell neovim-3
pip install neovim
As shown in the error message, I specified g: python_host_prog and g: python3_host_prog as follows. (Assuming that PYENV_ROOT = ~ / .pyenv is set)
init.vim
let g:python_host_prog=$PYENV_ROOT.'/versions/neovim-2/bin/python'
let g:python3_host_prog=$PYENV_ROOT.'/versions/neovim-3/bin/python'
: CheckHealthI restarted NeoVim and tried : CheckHealth again, and WARNING and ERROR disappeared.
... it was supposed to be, but when I tried it again, WARNING appeared: sweat_smile :. But it's not ERROR, so I'll ignore it
