VS Code: Unable to install flask - python

I'm not using a virtual environment, & have tried selecting the appropriate python interpreter.
When I do a python3 -m pip install flask,
my terminal says Requirement already satisfied: MarkupSafe>=0.23 in /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.8/lib/python3.8/site-packages (from Jinja2>=2.10.1->flask) (1.1.1)
However, I receive this error message: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'flask' which traces back to VSCode being unable to import "flask" for some reason.
Would appreciate any help!

Jupyter packages

I am trying to import certain packages as I am working with Jupyter notebook files, and most of the packages seem to be missing, even though I have installed them. For example, when I do the command: from bs4 import BeautifulSoup or import requests
I get the error saying ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'bs4' for the first one and a similar one for importing requests as well. I have tried pip install requests and pip install bs4, but same issue persists. I have installed them on:
"(base) aminnazemzadeh#amins-MacBook-Pro ~ % " which seems to be my home directory, and I also have anaconda3 installed alongside python3. What is the issue that I cannot import these modules.
I am using visual studio if it makes any difference
Once I add :
!pip install requests
!pip install bs4
I get:
/Users/aminnazemzadeh/.zshenv:.:1: no such file or directory: /Users/aminnazemzadeh/.cargo/env

Thanks
probably you're installing the packages on an environment other than the one vs code is using. you can try installing the packages directly from your jupyter notebook by running the following code in a notebook cell. the current best practice to be running installs in the notebook is using the magic commands %pip or %conda:
%pip install requests beautifulsoup4
# or
%conda install requests beautifulsoup4
this should install the packages in the same environment that the notebook is running on.
note that you may need to restart the kernel to use the affected packages.

ps: thanks #wayne for the comments regarding the current best practices for installing on the current running environment.
If you're using conda, you should install via conda whenever possible. When you install via pip, conda loses some of its ability to manage dependency versions.
Try creating a new conda environment, install the needed packages via conda, then set the kernel to your new environment in vscode. Dedicate conda environments to specific projects. It is okay to have a default/generic environment for playing around but not for any significant work as you can easily create errors in your other work if a dependency changes to an incompatible version.
Conda cheet sheet for reference if you need it: https://docs.conda.io/projects/conda/en/4.6.0/_downloads/52a95608c49671267e40c689e0bc00ca/conda-cheatsheet.pdf
You will need the Jupyter extension in vscode if you do not already have it installed.
You will also need to install the corresponding jupyter package in your conda environment.

Can't use cx_Freeze on my Windows 10 Machine

I am building a python script that I want to compile to a .exe file for anyone to be able to run. I'm attempting to follow the guide on this other question, and I instantly ran into issues.
I'm currently developing on Windows 10 through the use of VSCode (I've also tried this through Pycharm to the same issue). I successfully have installed cx_Freeze to the point where when I try to install it again I get Requirement already satisfied:
PS E:\code\scorekeeper> py -m pip install cx_Freeze
Requirement already satisfied: cx_Freeze in c:\users\beau\appdata\local\programs\python\python39\lib\site-packages (6.8)
Requirement already satisfied: cx-logging>=3.0 in c:\users\beau\appdata\local\programs\python\python39\lib\site-packages (from cx_Freeze) (3.0)
Requirement already satisfied: importlib-metadata>=4.3.1 in c:\users\beau\appdata\local\programs\python\python39\lib\site-packages (from cx_Freeze) (4.8.1)
Requirement already satisfied: zipp>=0.5 in c:\users\beau\appdata\local\programs\python\python39\lib\site-packages (from importlib-metadata>=4.3.1->cx_Freeze) (3.5.1)
The issue is, the Pylance plugin I have in VSCode shows an error on the import saying that "Import "cx_Freeze" could not be resolved".
And as expected, when I try to run the script, I get this error:
PS E:\code\scorekeeper> & e:/code/scorekeeper/.venv/Scripts/python.exe e:/code/scorekeeper/setup.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "e:\code\scorekeeper\setup.py", line 1, in <module>
from cx_Freeze import setup, Executable
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'cx_Freeze'
Anyone have any ideas on what's going on here?
The problem was that I was not in an integrated terminal using the .venv file in the project, because windows had errored when it tried to set the .venv as the active terminal due to Execution policies. Once I gave the terminal permissions to run scripts and re ran the activate it was able to install the package.
It had installed the package to the python root PATH, but was using the interpreter in the .venv folder in the project.

installing doesn't resolve ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'mpl_finance'

The title says it all. Upon trying to run code related to this matplotlib candlestikck tutorial, I got the error:
ModuleNotFoundError Traceback (most recent call last)
<ipython-input-1-5aa61276079d> in <module>
2 import numpy as np
3 import yfinance
----> 4 from mpl_finance import candlestick_ohlc
5 import matplotlib.dates as mpl_dates
6 import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'mpl_finance'
So I installed it and restarted the kernel but still no dice. Next, I followed someone's advice on here and installed mplfinance and restarted the kernel, again no go. I rebooted, nil. I even tried installing "mlp_finance" as another answer on here suggested hoping it was some weird name clashing thing but again it didn't work. Why cannot I import mplfinance?
Addition 202007311328: this is a jupyter notebook; I can install and import fine on the command line. Installing mpl_finance from inside jupyter with "!pip3 install mpl_finance" produces no error:
Looking in indexes: https://pypi.org/simple, https://www.piwheels.org/simple

but the same error happens when I try to import it.
edit 2020071343 here's an image of my tying to install mplfinance and then use it. anything pop out at you?
solved, see https://github.com/jupyter/notebook/issues/3311
In my experience, unless the module has been misspelled (which doesn't appear to be the case based on your screenshot above), ModuleNotFoundError usually indicates that the install location is not within the search path for importing modules.
Since this is working for you under ipython, so have a simple way to find where your system installed mplfinance:
In [1]: import mplfinance as mpf
In [2]: mpf.__file__
To find out where your system is searching for modules
import sys
print(sys.path)
If you run the above for both ipython and in your jupyter notebook, I am guessing that you will find that sys.path is different for your ipython installation than it is for your jupyter notebook (and that the notebook's search path does not include the install location). This could be for various reasons such as environment variables, where jupyter is installed, whether you are running virtual and/or conda environments, etc. You can read more about the module search path here: https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/modules.html#the-module-search-path
Note that if you are using a virtual environment, or conda environment, you have to (1) activate the environment before installing mplfinance and (2) activate the environment before running jupyter notebook. It may also be necessary to have a separate install of jupyter notebook in the activated environment.
Let me know if the above gives you enough information to resolve the issue. If not, please provide the output from the above commands and I will do what I can to help further. All the best. --Daniel
This had happened to me once. In my case the problem was:
Usually pc had 2 versions of python installed - Python 2, Python3. If you run pip install.. . It just install that module to python2 or Python3 by own.
Solution :
If your program runs under python3
python3 -m pip install mpl_finance
If your program runs under python2
python2 -m pip install mpl_finance
Hope it solves your problem.

keep getting python ModuleNotFoundError: No module named

I am working on a raspberry pi python project and every time I import a package I get the same error ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ''. for example I am trying to add the ambient_api package
I followed the steps in their set up:
pip install ambient_api
Added the imports at the top of my file:
from ambient_api.ambientapi import AmbientAPI
api = AmbientAPI()
but I am getting the error:
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'ambient_api'
This is happening with all the imports I am trying to add and I cant figure out what I am missing.
when I was looking on google I came across __init__.py might be a solution but I am not sure how this works?
edit:
here is what was output when I installed:
Looking in indexes: https://pypi.org/simple, https://www.piwheels.org/simple
Requirement already satisfied: ambient_api in /home/pi/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages (1.5.2)
Requirement already satisfied: requests in /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages (from ambient_api) (2.21.0)
Requirement already satisfied: urllib3 in /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages (from ambient_api) (1.24.1)
version in my terminal:
pi#raspberrypi:~/Raspberry-Pi-Greenhouse $ python --version
Python 2.7.16
but it looks like the version in the shell in the ide when I run the program is saying:
Python 3.7.3 (/usr/bin/python3)
As explained by #JaFizz in Pytorch is installed but do not working ubuntu 18.04 it solved by giving an alias and installing correctly to desired python version (there were two pythons installed on the same machine)
First it was necessary to specify the location of the python, example:
alias python=/usr/local/bin/python3.6
Then install it:
python pip install <package name>

Cannot import name 'WordCloud'

I am using Jupyter Notebook and trying to build a wordcloud. Turns out there are some issues with the pillow package and the internet is full of talks around it. I was geetting the DLL error initially. I tried a lot of different things and not sure which one worked but right now, I am getting the 'cannot import name' error.
Some details from Anaconda Prompt-
>python -m pip --version
pip 18.0 from C:\Users\Kritika.Jalan\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\pip (python 3.6)
>python -m pip install wordcloud
Requirement already satisfied: wordcloud in c:\users\kritika.jalan\anaconda3\lib\site-packages (1.5.0)
Requirement already satisfied: numpy>=1.6.1 in c:\users\kritika.jalan\anaconda3\lib\site-packages (from wordcloud) (1.15.0)
Requirement already satisfied: pillow in c:\users\kritika.jalan\anaconda3\lib\site-packages (from wordcloud) (4.0.0)
Requirement already satisfied: olefile in c:\users\kritika.jalan\anaconda3\lib\site-packages (from pillow->wordcloud) (0.45.1)
Details from Jupyter Notebook -
from wordcloud import WordCloud
ImportError: cannot import name 'WordCloud'
import PIL
print(PIL.PILLOW_VERSION)
5.0.0
What am I doing wrong here?
Mostly, having a can not import name error even after successful library installation, is result of conflict with your local file name and python library name.
Do you have your own python file in your local named wordcloud.py ?
If yes, that is causing conflict with wordcloud.py in python library.
Simply rename your script.
Thanks
You just need to change your file name that is same to the library name
