Does anyone else have this issue? For reference check this screenshot:
PIP is also up to date and I already tried reinstalling it but it didn't work neither. I'm using VS Code. It also worked just fine yesterday but today it didn't anymore for some reason.
Your mss package is installed locally, but you are using a virtual environment to run code.
Two solutions:
1. Switch the interpreter to the local interpreter, which is the c:\Users\Anwender\AppData\Local\.... in your picture
Ctrl+Shift+P to open the command palette, search for and select Python:Select Interpreter
Select the interpreter with the mss package installed
2. Install the mss package for your virtual environment
Select the virtual environment interpreter in the selection panel
Create a new terminal activation environment
Install mss package using command pip install mss
you can try installing mss outside of the venv and see if that works. also check that the venv you're using is the right one according to vscode
If you are using multiple versions of python or use any python version in appdata, without venv, you can try running "pip install mss" from elevated (administrator) cmd instance within python install directory/scripts, shown on the console image above. If it is not the right python version used in the project, same applies to any installed python version. If IDE is used check interpreter setting to determine which one is in play.
If you are using a virtual environment, you can install you package directly there. For windows:
py -m pip install mss

The other solution can be to add the path of your package to sys.path:
import sys
my_pkgs_path = r'/home/.../my_pkgs'
if my_pkgs_path in sys.path:
print('already in sys.path')
else:
print('not found in sys.path')
sys.path.append(my_pkgs_path)
print('Added to sys.path')
I'm having trouble with using 'requests' module on my Mac. I use python34 and I installed 'requests' module via pip. I can verify this via running installation again and it'll show me that module is already installed.
15:49:29|mymac [~]:pip install requests
Requirement already satisfied (use --upgrade to upgrade): requests in /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.4/lib/python3.4/site-packages
Although I can import 'requests' module via interactive Python interpreter, trying to execute 'import requests' in PyCharm yields error 'No module named requests'. I checked my PyCharm Python interpreter settings and (I believe) it's set to same python34 as used in my environment. However, I can't see 'requests' module listed in PyCharm either.
It's obvious that I'm missing something here. Can you guys advise where should I look or what should I fix in order to get this module working? I was living under impression that when I install module via pip in my environment, PyCharm will detect these changes. However, it seems something is broken on my side ...
In my case, using a pre-existing virtualenv did not work in the editor - all modules were marked as unresolved reference (running naturally works, as this is outside of the editor's config, just running an external process (not so easy for debugging)).
Turns out PyCharm did not add the site-packages directory... the fix is to manually add it.
On Pycharm professional 2022.3
Open File -> Settings -> Python Interpreter, open the drop-down and pick "Show All..." (to edit the config) (1), right click your interpreter (2), click "Show Interpreter Paths" (3).
In that screen, manually add the "site-packages" directory of the virtual environment [looks like .../venv/lib/python3.8/site-packages (4) (I've added the "Lib" also, for a good measure); once done and saved, they will turn up in the interpreter paths.
The other thing that won't hurt to do is select "Associate this virtual environment with the current project", in the interpreter's edit box.
If you are using PyCharms CE (Community Edition), then click on:
File->Default Settings->Project Interpreter
See the + sign at the bottom, click on it. It will open another dialog with a host of modules available. Select your package (e.g. requests) and PyCharm will do the rest.
This issue arises when the package you're using was installed outside of the environment (Anaconda or virtualenv, for example). In order to have PyCharm recognize packages installed outside of your particular environment, execute the following steps:
Go to
Preferences -> Project -> Project Interpreter -> 3 dots -> Show All ->
Select relevant interpreter -> click on tree icon Show paths for the selected interpreter
Now check what paths are available and add the path that points to the package installation directory outside of your environment to the interpreter paths.
To find a package location use:
$ pip show gym
Name: gym
Version: 0.13.0
Summary: The OpenAI Gym: A toolkit for developing and comparing your reinforcement learning agents.
Home-page: https://github.com/openai/gym
Author: OpenAI
Author-email: gym#openai.com
License: UNKNOWN
Location: /usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages
...
Add the path specified under Location to the interpreter paths, here
/usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages
Then, let indexing finish and perhaps additionally reopen your project.
Open python console of your pyCharm. Click on Rerun.
It will say something like following on the very first line
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin/python2.7 /Applications/PyCharm.app/Contents/helpers/pydev/pydevconsole.py 52631 52632
in this scenario pyCharm is using following interpretor
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin/python2.7
Now fire up console and run following command
sudo /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin/python2.7 -m pip install <name of the package>
This should install your package :)
Pycharm is unable to recognize installed local modules, since python interpreter selected is wrong. It should be the one, where your pip packages are installed i.e. virtual environment.
I had installed packages via pip in Windows. In Pycharm, they were neither detected nor any other Python interpreter was being shown (only python 3.6 is installed on my system).
I restarted the IDE. Now I was able to see python interpreter created in my virtual environment. Select that python interpreter and all your packages will be shown and detected. Enjoy!
Using dual python 2.7 and 3.4 with 2.7 as default, I've always used pip3 to install modules for the 3.4 interpreter, and pip to install modules for the 2.7 interpreter.
Try this:
pip3 install requests
This is because you have not selected two options while creating your project:-
** inherit global site packages
** make available to all projects
Now you need to create a new project and don't forget to tick these two options while selecting project interpreter.
The solution is easy (PyCharm 2021.2.3 Community Edition).
I'm on Windows but the user interface should be the same.
In the project tree, open External libraries > Python interpreter > venv > pyvenv.cfg.
Then change:
include-system-site-packages = false
to:
include-system-site-packages = true
Before going further, I want to point out how to configure a Python interpreter in PyCharm: [SO]: How to install Python using the "embeddable zip file" (#CristiFati's answer). Although the question is for Win, and has some particularities, configuring PyCharm is generic enough and should apply to any situation (with minor changes).
There are multiple possible reasons for this behavior.
1. Python instance mismatch
Happens when there are multiple Python instances (installed, VEnvs, Conda, custom built, ...) on a machine. Users think they're using one particular instance (with a set of properties (installed packages)), but in fact they are using another (with different properties), hence the confusion. It's harder to figure out things when the 2 instances have the same version (and somehow similar locations)
Happens mostly due to environmental configuration (whichever path comes 1st in ${PATH}, aliases (on Nix), ...)
It's not PyCharm specific (meaning that it's more generic, also happens outside it), but a typical PyCharm related example is different console interpreter and project interpreter, leading to confusion
The fix is to specify full paths (and pay attention to them) when using tools like Python, PIP, .... Check [SO]: How to install a package for a specific Python version on Windows 10? (#CristiFati's answer) for more details
This is precisely the reason why this question exists. There are 2 Python versions involved:
Project interpreter: /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.4
Interpreter having the Requests module: /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.4
well, assuming the 2 paths are not somehow related (SymLinked), but in latest OSX versions that I had the chance to check (Catalina, Big Sur, Monterey) this doesn't happen (by default)
When dealing with this kind of error, it always helps (most likely) displaying the following information (in a script or interpreter console):
import os
import sys
print(sys.executable)
print(sys.version)
print(os.getcwd())
print(getattr(os, "uname", lambda: None)())
print(sys.path)
2. Python's module search mechanism misunderstanding
According to [Python.Docs]: Modules - The Module Search Path:
When a module named spam is imported, the interpreter first searches for a built-in module with that name. These module names are listed in sys.builtin_module_names. If not found, it then searches for a file named spam.py in a list of directories given by the variable sys.path. sys.path is initialized from these locations:
The directory containing the input script (or the current directory when no file is specified).
PYTHONPATH (a list of directory names, with the same syntax as the shell variable PATH).
The installation-dependent default (by convention including a site-packages directory, handled by the site module).
A module might be located in the current dir, or its path might be added to ${PYTHONPATH}. That could trick users into making them believe that the module is actually installed in the current Python instance ('s site-packages). But, when running the current Python instance from a different dir (or with different ${PYTHONPATH}) the module would be missing, yielding lots of headaches
For a fix, check [SO]: How PyCharm imports differently than system command prompt (Windows) (#CristiFati's answer)
3. A PyCharm bug
Not very likely, but it could happen. An example (not related to this question): [SO]: PyCharm 2019.2 not showing Traceback on Exception (#CristiFati's answer)
To fix, follow one of the options from the above URL
4. A glitch
Not likely, but mentioning anyway. Due to some cause (e.g.: HW / SW failure), the system ended up in an inconsistent state, yielding all kinds of strange behaviors
Possible fixes:
Restart PyCharm
Restart the machine
Recreate the project (remove the .idea dir from the project)
Reset PyCharm settings: from menu select File -> Manage IDE Settings -> Restore Default Settings.... Check [JetBrains]: Configuring PyCharm settings or [JetBrains.IntelliJ-Support]: Changing IDE default directories used for config, plugins, and caches storage for more details
Reinstall PyCharm
Needless to say that the last 2 options should only be attempted as a last resort, and only by experts, as they might mess up other projects and not even fix the problem
Not directly related to the question, but posting:
[SO]: Run / Debug a Django application's UnitTests from the mouse right click context menu in PyCharm Community Edition? (a PyCharm related investigation from a while ago)
[SO]: ImportError: No module named win32com.client (#CristiFati's answer)
If you go to pycharm project interpreter -> clicked on one of the installed packages then hover -> you will see where pycharm is installing the packages. This is where you are supposed to have your package installed.
Now if you did sudo -H pip3 install <package>
pip3 installs it to different directory which is /usr/local/lib/site-packages
since it is different directory from what pycharm knows hence your package is not showing in pycharm.
Solution: just install the package using pycharm by going to File->Settings->Project->Project Interpreter -> click on (+) and search the package you want to install and just click ok.
-> you will be prompted package successfully installed and you will see it pycharm.
If any one faces the same problem that he/she installs the python packages but the PyCharm IDE doesn't shows these packages then following the following steps:
Go to the project in the left side of the PyCharm IDE then
Click on the venv library then
Open the pyvenv.cfg file in any editor then
Change this piece of code (include-system-site-packages = flase) from false to true
Then save it and close it and also close then pycharm then
Open PyCharm again and your problem is solved.
Thanks
This did my head in as well, and turns out, the only thing I needed to do is RESTART Pycharm. Sometimes after you've installed the pip, you can't load it into your project, even if the pip shows as installed in your Settings. Bummer.
For Anaconda:
Start Anaconda Navigator -> Enviroments -> "Your_Enviroment" -> Update Index -> Restart IDE.
Solved it for me.
After pip installing everything I needed. I went to the interpreter and re-pointed it back to where it was at already.
My case: python3.6 in /anaconda3/bin/python using virtualenv...
Additionally, before I hit the plus "+" sign to install a new package. I had to deselect the conda icon to the right of it. Seems like it would be the opposite, but only then did it recognize the packages I had/needed via query.
In my case the packages were installed via setup.py + easy_install, and the they ends up in *.egg directories in site_package dir, which can be recognized by python but not pycharm.
I removed them all then reinstalled with pip install and it works after that, luckily the project I was working on came up with a requirements.txt file, so the command for it was:
pip install -r ./requirement.txt
I just ran into this issue in a brand new install/project, but I'm using the Python plugin for IntelliJ IDEA. It's essentially the same as PyCharm but the project settings are a little different. For me, the project was pointing to the right Python virtual environment but not even built-in modules were being recognized.
It turns out the SDK classpath was empty. I added paths for venv/lib/python3.8 and venv/lib/python3.8/site-packages and the issue was resolved. File->Project Structure and under Platform Settings, click SDKs, select your Python SDK, and make sure the class paths are there.
pip install --user discord
above command solves my problem, just use the "--user" flag
I fixed my particular issue by installing directly to the interpreter. Go to settings and hit the "+" below the in-use interpreter then search for the package and install. I believe I'm having the issue in the first place because I didn't set up with my interpreter correctly with my venv (not exactly sure, but this fixed it).
I was having issues with djangorestframework-simplejwt because it was the first package I hadn't installed to this interpreter from previous projects before starting the current one, but should work for any other package that isn't showing as imported. To reiterate though I think this is a workaround that doesn't solve the setup issue causing this.
If you are having issues with the underlying (i.e. pycharm's languge server) mark everything as root and create a new project. See details: https://stackoverflow.com/a/73418320/1601580 this seems to happy to me only when I install packages as in editable mode with pip (i.e. pip install -e . or conda develop). Details: https://stackoverflow.com/a/73418320/1601580
--WINDOWS--
if using Pycharm GUI package installer works fine for installing packages for your virtual environment but you cannot do the same in the terminal,
this is because you did not setup virtual env in your terminal, instead, your terminal uses Power Shell which doesn't use your virtual env
there should be (venv) before you're command line as shown instead of (PS)
if you have (PS), this means your terminal is using Power Shell instead of cmd
to fix this, click on the down arrow and select the command prompt
select command prompt
now you will get (venv) and just type pip install #package name# and the package will be added to your virtual environment
On windows I had to cd into the venv folder and then cd into the scripts folder, then pip install module started to work
cd venv
cd scripts
pip install module
instead of running pip install in the terminal -> local use terminal -> command prompt
see below image
pycharm_command_prompt_image
In your pycharm terminal run pip/pip3 install package_name
I have requests module installed but it shows an error when running .py file from cmd prompt.
There are no errors when running the file from vscode.
It seems that requests is installed in your virtual enviroment "my_env" but you must execute your script using the intepreter of your virtual enviroment (It seems that windows keep using the base interpreter even if you activated the virtual env). Try calling it directly, for example
"Your_path_to_venv\Scripts\python.exe" main.py
This issue can be caused by multiple issues.
Wrong pip version is in path (Caused by installing a newer version of python, while an older version was already there.
This can be fixed by simply removing the old python from PATH and restarting the command line.
Try using pip3 instead of pip maybe pip installs libraries in a different dictionary than pip3 does
If that didn't work then use
python -m pip install “your library”
And if you were using python3 just do the same
python3 -m pip install ”your library”
If they did not work too, replace pip in the last two commands with pip3
And if it still does not work first see the path of the python site-packages files by running this python code
import os
import inspect
print(os.path.dirname(inspect.getfile(inspect))+"/site-packages")
a path will be printed, take it and add it as a parameter to your pip command
pip install -t “the printed path”
Ok, I see that you probably have a script called requests.py in your C:\Users\BokaBu>pyproj\my_env\Scripts\activate folder, but your question is how can C:\Users\BokaBu>pyproj\src\main.py find it.
The solution is to add C:\Users\BokaBu>pyproj\my_env\Scripts\activate to PYTHONPATH. The solution to the general version of your question can be found here:
Importing files from different folder - Stackoverflow
But in more detail, you may want to try this to your C:\Users\BokaBu>pyproj\src\main.py:
# In C:\Users\BokaBu>pyproj\src\main.py
import sys
# insert at 1, 0 is the script path (or '' in REPL)
sys.path.insert(1, 'C:\Users\BokaBu>pyproj\my_env\Scripts\activate')
import requests
Hope it helps~
I am trying to use Cantera on python. I downloaded Anaconda and followed the instructions on Cantera's website to install. Their website's tutorial says to write:
import cantera as ct
import numpy as np
When I run it, I get the error:
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'cantera'
I tried reinstalling everything.
The error ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'cantera' implies that you have not succesfully installed the 'cantera' module. You stated you downloaded anaconda then followed the install procedure here?
Can you please show me what the output was for this, if there was an error or admin block then cantera was never installed and that is why you can't import it.
You might not be activating your environment. Activate it first in the command prompt and then try to import the modules.
Without knowing the complete detail, my guess is that when you start a new project with Pycharm, it offers to create a new environment for you (See the image below).
An environment acts as an isolated container of packages and multiple environments can be setup (over simplification). By default, when creating a new environment it will only install the default packages with Anaconda and my guess is that Cantera is not a part of that list.
Now you've got two options:
Specifically install the package in the new environment you created:
Click on File -> Settings -> Project -> Project Interpreter
Click the + button on the right hand side of the package list and then look for the package you want to install. It should be installed to your specified environment.
Change the environment to the default anaconda env:
Click on File -> Settings -> Project -> Project Interpreter
In the Project Interpreter drop down, select the default anaconda interpreter. You can look at the packages installed in that env and find if your specific package is there or not. If the package is still not there, you could go ahead and install it using the previous method.
I have gone through a large amount of pain to eventually conclude that:
Cantera 2.4 will work only with Python 2.7, and a new Python 2.7 environment within Anaconda can be used to install it, though I didn't find this written clearly:Cantera Release Notes
To install and run Cantera 2.4:
Create and activate a Python 2.7 environment: Anaconda Documentation
Run the command: conda install -c cantera cantera (first iteration may fail to solve) - Anaconda Documentation
View your Python 2 environment packages in in Anaconda and you will see it listed.
I'm trying to debug some python code using VS code. I'm getting the following error about a module that I am sure is installed.
Exception has occurred: ModuleNotFoundError
No module named 'SimpleITK'
File "C:\Users\Mido\Desktop\ProstateX-project\src\01-preprocessing\03_resample_nifti.py", line 8, in <module>
import SimpleITK as sitk
I installed the module using
sudo pip install SimpleITK
I know that it was installed because I was getting a similar error when I ran the code through the command line, and it was fixed by doing the above. I don't understand why VS code does not recognize that
After installing a new module via pip reloading vscode may work if vscode doesn't recognize it. To do this, make sure that the module is installed inside the virtual environment by creating and activating a virtualenv:
python3 -m venv env
source env/bin/activate
Make sure to use the correct way of installing a module with pip:
python3 -m pip install {new_module}
Replace the string "{new_module}" with your module name. After that, make sure to reload vscode by clicking Ctrl+Shift+P, and selecting Reload window.
Now vscode will know the new module and autocompletion works.
sudo pip install is most likely installing globally into a Python interpreter that is different than the one that you have selected in VS Code. Please select the Python interpreter you want to use and then install explicitly using that interpreter (if you're not using a virtual environment then use something like /path/to/python -m pip install SimpleITK, although I strongly recommend using a virtual environment and to not install packages globally).
In Mac, correctly selecting the Python Interpreter worked for me:
From within VS Code, select a Python 3 interpreter by opening the Command Palette (⇧⌘P), start typing the Python: Select Interpreter command to search, then select the command. You can also use the Select Python Environment option on the Status Bar if available (it may already show a selected interpreter, too):
No interpreter selected
The command presents a list of available interpreters that VS Code can find automatically, including virtual environments. If you don't see the desired interpreter, see Configuring Python environments.
Source :VS Code Select Interpreter
This error: your vscode use other python version. This solution change vscode use current python.
In terminal find current python version:
py --version
In vscode Press Ctrl+Shift+P then type:
Python: Select Interpreter
Select current python version
I ran into this problem with VSCode and resolved it by setting my Python interpreter within VSCode to the same as the one in my system path (type "echo %PATH%" on Windows and look for Python) via the process here: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/python/python-tutorial#_select-a-python-interpreter
There are a lot of proposed answers that suggest changing the launch.json or the settings.json file. However, neither of these solutions worked for me.
My situation:
Is Python environment selected? yes
Does the Terminal recognize Python environment? yes
Can I run the Python code from the activated Terminal? yes
Does the code run w/o error when I use "Start Debugging"? yes
Does the code run when I click "Run Code"? no
The only solution that worked for me is to:
Open Windows Terminal (or cmd)
Activate environment: conda activate <environment_name>
Open Visual Studio Code from Terminal: code
Then, "Run Code" (#5) works without any issues.
Source:
"module not found error" in VS Code using Conda - l3d00m's answer
Faced similar issue and here is how I fixed it. Remember that there are multiple ways to run your code in VS code. And for each way you may end up with different interpreters and environments. For example:
1. Creating virtual env and installing libraries
In my case I opted into creating virtual environment and doing so outside of VS Code using command prompt:
python -m venv .plotting_test
Following that I activated it:
.plotting_test\Scripts\activate.bat
Following that I installed additional libraries:
python -m pip install matplotlib
Following that I made sure to see it was all installed ok:
python -m pip list
And I also checked where for current directory:
cd
2. Point VS Code & VS Code Code Runner to virtual environment
Opened vs code, closed previous workspaces, opened new folder, created test.py as I was starting new. Pressed ctrl + shift + p. Selected ```Python: Select Interpreter``:
Followed by + Enter interpreted path
Navigated to directory from last step from section 1. Found my virtual environment folder created in step one and pointed VS code to that version's python.exe in Scripts:
Verified I am pointed to such:
Saved as workspace so that I can create default workspace settings for this project:
In workspace settings files defined paths to my virtual environment created n step 1 for workspace interpreter & CODE RUNNER(!):
"settings": {
"python.defaultInterpreterPath": "C:/Users/yyguy/.plotting_test/Scripts/python.exe",
"code-runner.executorMap": {"python": "call C:/Users/yyguy/.plotting_test/Scripts/activate.bat && python -u"}
}
}
Reloaded window just to make sure (ctrl + shift + p) = "Developer: Reload Window"
Now run code and run python file should be execute under your specified envs:
Try running pip list in VS Code to check if the module is installed, next check if your python version is correct/supports that version of SimpleITK. It may be a problem with the python interpreter that you are using for VS Code (ie. the module may be installed on a different python instance than the one your VS Code is using)
Is Python environment selected?
Does the Terminal recognize the Python environment?
Can I run the Python code from the activated Terminal?
Does the code run w/o error when I use "Start Debugging"?
if the answer to the above is "yes."
Then,
Try running the Code using the option "Run python file in terminal" (in code runner extension). And assign a new shortcut for that for future use...
How to fix module not found error in Visual Studio code?
To Solve VSCode ModuleNotFoundError: No module named X Error Make sure you are running from the package folder (not from package/module ) if you want import module. calculations to work. You can also set the PYTHONPATH environment variable to the path to the package folder.
Once you have created a virtual environment, and installed your required packages in that environment, close VS code. For Windows platform, open command prompt and navigate to the folder where your virtual env folder is created. And then launch VS code from there using the command code .
For ex: My virtual env name is .imgenv, and its inside C:\py_stuff\projects
So, I navigate to C:\py_stuff\projects and then type code .
Now, your VS code should recognize the packages !
I just ran into the same issue. I found that if I selected all text before shift enter the script would compile as a file instead of as a single line.
I had the same problem. I bet you have a shebang statement at the top of your file.
If you do.
Visual Studios settings
Under "Code-runner->Code-runner: Respect Shebang" section or just do a search for "Code-runner: Respect Shebang"
Uncheck weather to respect Shebang to run code.
Now it will run under the virtual environment and find the modules that you installed using pip! :)
I struggled with this for a very long time, and had tried almost every other answer. I wasn't using pip, so that wasn't the issue. But still VS Code wasn't finding the modules that were installed in the Selected Interpreter.
Ultimately it came down to old conflicts that existed because I switched to miniconda, and VS Code was still looking for anaconda3.
I completely wiped VS Code and its associated files (cache, preference files, etc.) from my machine (some instructions), and installed a clean version.
This now syncs as expected with miniconda.
If you have different python versions installed, be sure you install module with right one.
python -m pip install <module>
or
python3 -m pip install <module>
Run your environment from a directory not in the users directory. I solved my problem running my environment from C:\Code\ProjectA\
I discovered my problem by running:
IMPORT os
Mycwd = os.getcwd()
PRINT(Mycwd)
.venv/Lib/SitePackages is the default directory where Vscode looks for Modules.
This directory is automatically created on creating .venv via the command Pallete.
External modules installed via pip are placed in this directory by default.
Place self created modules inside this folder manually.
For mac users
In the terminal check which python you are using by command which python. It will give you the path of the python interpreter path. After that type cmd shift P and type Python: Select interpreter.
After that select + Enter interpreter path and paste the path which you got after running the command which python.
