I am trying to install the python package us without admin privileges.
I have tried pip install us in Anaconda prompt to no avail.
I have also tried the suggestion listed here: Install python modules on windows without admin rights--didn't work.
I have now downloaded the files from the site https://pypi.org/project/us/ to my desktop and need to know how to install the package from here.
I am using the Spyder IDE and Python 3.7. Is there a way to do this?
Thanks.
I do this on the daily and if I understand what you are saying you are doing it right. If pip install us in command prompt or shell (if you are using Windows OS) doesn't work try py -m pip install us. Make sure you are using command prompt and not using your IDEz
As you can see it worked first try for me.
Since you have downloaded the files, Extract them in a folder and normally a setup.py file must be include, open command prompt in that folder and run :
python setup.py install
I'm trying to install matlab engine for python but doesn't work, I'm doing that from command line and doesn't display anything. These are my steps:
I have add python tho my environment path
than I found matlabroot and I get in with cd in command line
I have installed matlab kernel
than I run the code python setup.py install --prefix='C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3'
But doesn't work, and I have no message or error.
What should I do?
python setup.py install is what mathworks suggests.
Mathworks document here
Run python -V to check if you are running the version you want to use.
Well, now I know.
First, find matlabroot on matlab : C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2020a
Than, go to conda prompt
and get in the matlab directory : C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2020a\extern\engines\python
then type on conda prompt : python setup.py install
Make sure you have python add to the env path
I've just installed compiledb , OS: RHEL6
pip install --user compiledb
running it from the command line doesn't work:
$ compiledb
tells me that no compiledb command found.
I also tried
python comppiledb
the error was something like compiledb is not a script.
probably I should manually add user site-packages directory to some (?) path? what is a right way?
I know that's newbie question, but I couldn't find similar problem by googling.
and - yes, I don't know python just need (compildb) to convert makefile to compilation database, not more.
Let's look at the second case first. Try adding the -m flag when you run it with python:
python -m compiledb
To get it running as compiledb you probably need to add the pip user binary directory to your PATH. Let's see where pip install --user puts libraries on your machine. Run this on the command line:
python -c 'import site; print(site.USER_BASE)'
On my system this prints
/home/chris/.local
and binaries installed via pip install --user live in
/home/chris/.local/bin
Assuming you get similar output, you should be able to run compiledb as
/home/amigo421/.local/bin/compiledb
If that works you may want to add /home/amigo421/.local/bin to your PATH, e.g. by adding something like
export PATH="$PATH:/home/amigo421/.local/bin"
to your ~/.bash_profile then logging out and back in again. At that point you should be able to simply run
compiledb
I'm wanting to learn machine learning, but it requires that I use 'pip.' I'm still very new to a lot of this stuff. I've installed Python 3.4 64-bit and get-py.py.
When I run pip install sklearn I get 'pip' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
Here's a screenshot of my environmental variable PATH

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have checked out other posts where people had similar issues, but I tried various things and nothing worked.
Easiest solution is to just download a platform like Anaconda for example. It is Python with many libraries (sklearn, pandas, numpy, ...) and also with pip, all in a user-friendly Windows installer package, that takes care of everything for you.

If you really want to do it yourself, then
download get-pip.py (https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py)
make sure you have Python installed and in your PATH, for example by running python --version in command prompt
Navigate to the directory, where you downloaded get-pip.py (in command prompt using the command cd).
Run the command python get-pip.py from a command prompt with admin privileges (possibly not needed, but just to make sure).
This should be all. Close your command prompt, open it again and run pip --version to test it. If it doesn't work, then search your computer for a file named pip.exe (most likely in your Python directory) and if you find it, add its path to your PATH variable (given the screenshot, I assume you know how to do this).
I downloaded Python 3.6 and the pip was installed on my system.
I found pip at below location:
C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36\Scripts
Also, before I found pip I used below command on my command prompt to install pyperclip:
python -m pip install pyperclip
For anyone that might have installed Python using the MSI installer, and ticked the box to include pip, but still gets the error 'pip' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file:
It looks like that the pip executable is installed in the \Scripts subdirectory of the Python installation, but that directory does not get automatically added to PATH.
For me, since I had installed Python 2.7, the directory was C:\Python27\Scripts. After adding this path to the PATH environment variable, and open a new CMD window, pip was available as a command.
I've made a workaround that will help you, copy the batch script below and modify it as specified:
#"PATH to python.exe" "PATH to pip.exe" %*
For example like this:
#"C:\programming\bin\python374\python.exe" "C:\programming\bin\python374\Scripts\pip.exe" %*
Save this file as pip.bat on Desktop and then move it to C:\Windows\system32.
For Python 3.7 or higher at least (as today is October 4th 2019) in the installation window you need to check the box "add to PATH" when you first install Python.
I'm late now, but just add python to your environment variables.
It´s explained in this short video, how to set up python to your environment variables:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y2q_b4ugPWk
after that pip should work on your cmd prompt, without cd to
"C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36\Scripts"
This is late but in case anyone runs across this issue, pip installed for me as "pip3". Once I used pip3 as my command and not pip, it worked fine. Threw me for quite a loop since I've been using Python for years.
PIP Install and Upgrade
Ensure you are accessing the right location while accessing pip as shown in my link above. Starting Python 3.4, it is included by default with the Python binary installers.
Environment Variable
It is also a good idea to update the environment variable if the path is not accessible by default, once the installation is complete.
If it is specifically pip you want you could install python again making sure to tick the install pip box which it sounds like you failed to upon initial installation.
I just started learning Python, and successfully downloaded Python 3.5. I attempted to download/upgrade PIP 8.1.2 multiple times using get-pip.py, which I ran (successfully I think) but when I attempted to execute python get-pip.py
I got the error code:
File "<stdin>", line 1
python get-pip.py
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
I understand that pip is included in python but the pip website requires users to upgrade pip which I don't think I can since any pip commands lead to syntax errors, and do not produce the same output that most tutorial sites show. I have tried to find different ways to fix it, but I can't figure out whats wrong aside from pip not being on the computer in the first place or corrupted. Thank you for your assistance.
You won't need to upgrade pip if you just downloaded python 3.5, go to where you have your Python3.5 file and open the folder Scripts, you will find pip.exe. Open powershell and use the cd command to move to the folder containing pip.exe. From here you can use pip install to get modules.
Open Windows Powershell
PS C:Users\you> cd C:\path\to\scripts\folder\containing\pip
PS C:\path\to\scripts\folder\containing\pip> pip install module
Not sure what you are asking. If you want to run python get-pip.py do it in a windows command prompt, not in the python interpreter. But I do not know why you would want to do that.
You already have pip; there is no need to run get-pip. Upgrading can be done by pip itself.
But the reason you are getting errors is that all these commands, including pip itself, should be run at the command line, not in the Python interpreter.
