I installed QGIS (KyngChaos) after installing Miniconda. When I would open QGIS, I'd get an error about MetaSearch not started because requests couldn't be found. How I got things working again
Alias system Python 2.7 (This may be optional)
`sudo alias python2=/usr/bin/python2.7`
Get a copy of [get-pip.py](https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py) and use it to install pip
`sudo /usr/bin/python2.7 /Users/maptastik/get-pip.py`
Install requests
`sudo /usr/bin/python2.7 -m pip install requests`
After reloading I got an error that jinja2 couldn't be found. So I installed jinja2
`sudo /usr/bin/python2.7 -m pip install jinja2`
I reloaded QGIS again and got another error about pygments being missing, so I installed pygments.
`sudo /usr/bin/python2.7 -m pip install pygments`
This time when I re-installed, no errors!
