I am new to Yahoo! Pipes, and I have created a pipe which slightly alters yahoo rss feeds. I wanted to make this dynamic and perform this pipe on 2000 RSS feeds, and thus stumbled upon pipe2py (https://github.com/ggaughan/pipe2py). However, I do not understand the instructions to creating an environment to use pipe2py. I understand that I have to import a module for pipe2py, but everytime I follow the directions I am told "No module named pipe2py"
Has anyone encountered this problem, or now how to get around it?
I've recently added a setup.py file for pipe2py, so you should be able to:
python setup.py install
to install it into your Python environment.
Alternatively, you can download and install it directly using:
pip install pipe2py

I'm trying to import https://github.com/chrisconlan/algorithmic-trading-with-python in my code. I've never imported anything from GitHub before and have looked at various other questions that have been asked on Stack Overflow regarding this problem but it just doesn't work. When I try to run the 'portfolio.py' code for example I keep getting a ModuleNotFound error for 'pypm'. What exactly is the correct way to import such a module or the whole GitHub directory?
I'm working with Visual Studio Code on Windows.
You will need to pip install the module. In your case the command you would need to run is python -m pip install -U git+https://github.com/chrisconlan/algorithmic-trading-with-python. Once you have done that you need to find the name of the module. You can do this with pip list. Find the name of the module you just installed.
Then you just stick import <module name> at the top of your code with the rest of your imports.
What i used to do in this is to clone the repository on the folder where are installed the python's packages. This is useful when you do not want to use the pip cmd tool, keeping the pip's cache memory under control.
I'm trying make sense of XML messages in Python with the use of PyXB.
However, when I install PyXB, I'm getting an error when trying to use the pyxbgen command: "'pxbgen' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file."
I'm using Anaconda to manage packages and I'm running Windows 10.
For context, I've been trying to follow this GitHub readme, but I'm stuck on generating classes:
https://github.com/openraildata/stomp-client-python
I've tried installing from pip as well as through conda-forge but the result is the same (and I also can't locate the pyxbgen file). I've also tried using setup.py manually, after which I found the pyxbgen file but still cannot use it.
I have seen the issue appearing on the internet but no real solution. Any advice on how to solve/diagnose the issue?
First, you need pyxbgen, not pxbgen. If it's not found ask pip where it's installed:
pip show --files pyxb
Second, a year ago the author announced End-of-Life. You can try a little bit updated fork:
pip install git+https://github.com/jonfoster/pyxb.git#egg=pyxb
Once I sent a few fixes and they were accepted.
You may also try to look at generateDS. It's still being actively developed.
PS. I've tried both products but my XML Schema is so big and complex both failed to handle it. Do not be disappointed and not expect too much from them.
I found this script (tutorial) on GitHub (https://github.com/amyoshino/Dash_Tutorial_Series/blob/master/ex4.py) and I am trying to run in my local machine.
Unfortunately I am having and Error
I would really appreciate if anyone can help me to run this script.
Perhaps this is something easy but I am new in coding.
Thank you!
You probably just need to pip install the dash-core-components library!
Take a look at the Dash Installation documentation. It currently recommends running these commands:
pip install dash==0.38.0 # The core dash backend
pip install dash-html-components==0.13.5 # HTML components
pip install dash-core-components==0.43.1 # Supercharged components
pip install dash-table==3.5.0 # Interactive DataTable component (new!)
pip install dash-daq==0.1.0 # DAQ components (newly open-sourced!)
For more info on using pip to install Python packages, see: Installing Packages.
If you have run those commands, and Flask still throws that error, you may be having a path/environment issue, and should provide more info in your question about your Python setup.
Also, just to give you a sense of how to interpret this error message:
It's often easiest to start at the bottom and work your way up.
Here, the bottommost message is a FileNotFound error.
The program is looking for the file in your Python37/lib/site-packages folder. That tells you it's looking for a Python package. That is the directory to which Python packages get installed when you use a tool like pip.
Okay, so, I'm actually a beginner in programming Python, and I only found out yesterday how you were supposed to encode pip install ModuleName in the Python command line and not in the interactive shell. I'm trying to download a lot of modules, such as the Send2Trash module, Pyperclip, Requests, Beautiful Soup, and Selenium.
Before I checked the forums about installing modules, I found out how we needed to have the pip tool. I'm a Windows user, but for some reason, I didn't have the 'Scripts' folder installed when I downloaded Python. I didn't know we needed it, so I used raw scripts from GitHub, setup.py, and copy pasted the script into the File Editor in Python, ran it in the interactive shell, and tried to import the module I needed. It worked for the Pyperclip and the Requests module; no errors popped up after I imported them using import pyperclip or import requests, but when I tried the same procedure for the rest of the modules I needed, there were some errors.
Also, when I tried to download the modules on pypi.python.org, I tried to open it using the interactive shell, but then something pops up, 'The file's encoding is invalid for Python3.x...', and when I click 'OK', it's going to say 'Failed to Decode', and close everything.
So, after reading forum after forum, I found out how to download pip, and was also able to download setuptools and wheel. I'm not sure if it's really already downloaded, but I was able to get the 'Scripts' folder that wasn't there before, so I guess so. I also already went into my PATH using the edit environment for your account thing, and I edited the Path variable so its value would lead to my 'Scripts' folder. Please do tell me if I did the right thing here.
So, following the advice of the forums, I tried to install the modules I needed by typing pip install ModuleName in the Python command line instead of the interactive shell, but it still gave me a Syntax Error. I also tried it in Command Prompt, typing the same code pip install ModuleName, but when I clicked Enter, nothing happens; no errors or anything. It seemed like my install was accepted, but when I tried importing the module in the interactive shell, it still gave an Import Error.
Please tell me what I did wrong throughout my process, and how to properly install the modules I need. I would include pictures into this, but it seems I can only add two before my reputation becomes 10, and I'm pretty new here, so... If there's anything I need to elaborate on about my problem, don't hesitate to ask, and I'll try my best.
You say you use windows so you need to understand pip.
pip is a program that installs python modules. You can even use easy_install instead of pip.
some pip commands
pip list -- lists out already installed modules.
pip search <module name> -- searches new modules.
pip -h -- more pip commands you want.
pip installs modules from CMD prompt not from python shell.
Even after installing modules some modules doesn't run as import module
they need to be imported as from module import function.
refer the pip help command and install modules.
DO NOT SAVE SCRIPT FILES IN PYTHON ROOT FOLDER YOU MAY FACE SOME PROBLEMS
Happy Programming!!!
After a whole lot of searching and trying out, I found the solution to my problem. For future Python users who encounter the same thing: always install your modules in the root folder.
In my case, my Command Prompt was automatically inside the C:\Users folder, which caused some problems because I couldn't download my module in there. Once I typed in cd C:\Python34, which was my root folder, I could successfully download the modules I needed using pip install ModuleName.
I would like to use scheduler in my python program however I haven't been able to install it.
I tried with Easy_Install and PIP (neither of which I've used before) and I can't find a link for another method. I'm using Python 2.7 on Windows Vista
Since I've never used PIP before I had to install that first. After installing pip I went to command prompt, changed to the directory with pip and typed:
C:\Python27\Scripts>pip install apscheduler
It didn't come up with an error so I assumed it installed, however when I run my python program, which includes the line: from apscheduler.scheduler import Scheduler
it states:
ImportError: No module named apscheduler.scheduler
and when I look at the list of installed modules in Idle it's not there.
It's probably something obvious since I don't have a lot of experience in programming yet.
Help would be much appreciated!

Hi again,
I got it working finally, in the end I didn't use PIP, in case other people need help this is what I did:
Downloaded the apscheduler tar.gz file
Downloaded 7-zip, since this can extract tar.gz files on Windows.
Extracted the tar.gz file using 7-zip, I had to do this twice since the first time I clicked extract it extracted to a .tar file (APScheduler-2.1.2.tar), it was necessary to extract this file as well.
Added C:python27\ to the windows path (this is in control panel->system & maintenance->system->advanced system settings->environment variables)
(I also added C:python27\scripts\ to the path, but not sure whether this makes a difference.
Opened command prompt and moved to the folder containing the extracted APScheduler files including the file named setup.py
In my case this was- C:\Python27\APScheduler\APScheduler-2.1.2\APScheduler-2.1.2\
In command prompt typed> python setup.py install
Hopefully this was everything, perhaps one day I'll delete everything and try again to check, but it took quite sometime to get it going so right now I think I'll leave it as is.
