How to install pip and a python package for self installed python?

If you install it from source you need to run:

/usr/local/bin/python2.7 -m ensurepip

This will actually install the pip application into /usr/local/bin.

Python 2.7.9 and later (on the python2 series), and Python 3.4 and later include pip by default 1, so you may have pip already.

To install pip, securely download get-pip.py
Then run the following (which may require administrator access):
python get-pip.py
