Whenever I try to import soundfile I get the error
ImportError: No module named soundfile
I installed pysoundfile seemingly without trouble:
$ sudo pip install pysoundfile

PySoundFile depends on the Python packages CFFI and NumPy, and the system library libsndfile.
To install the Python dependencies, I recommend using the Anaconda distribution of Python 3.
This will come with all dependencies pre-installed. To install the dependencies manually, you can use the conda package manager, which will install all dependencies using conda install cffi numpy (conda is also available independently of Anaconda with pip install conda).
With CFFI and NumPy installed, you can use pip install pysoundfile to download and install the latest release of PySoundFile. On Windows and OS X, this will also install the library libsndfile. On Linux, you need to install libsndfile using your distribution's package manager, for example sudo apt-get install libsndfile1.
I had the same problem, I guess the problem is with python versions. When I tried with Python 3.5.2
python3 file_name.py
ImportError: No module named 'soundfile'
Instead, I tried the same with Python 2.7.12
python file_name.py
It successfully imported it!
For Google Colab Research
copy paste this
!pip install soundfile
& then import it
import soundfile

I need to update offline a library in Python.
I have downloaded the library with pip download and then I try to update the library with the command:
pip install --no-index --user --find-links /tmp/pip/ --upgrade Werkzeug==0.15.5
which gives:
Ignoring indexes: https://...
Collecting Werkzeug==0.15.5
Installing collected packages: Werkzeug
Successfully installed Werkzeug-0.11.15
and then the library stays in the same version!
pip freeze | grep Wer
Werkzeug==0.11.15
Any ideas why this happens?
UPDATE: After the comment from #hoefling I rerun with the -vvv option and this is what I got:
pip install --no-index --user --find-links /tmp/pip2/ -vvv Werkzeug==0.15.5
Ignoring indexes: https://pypi:pypi#..../simple/

This behaviour can happen because pip by default works with system Python which is located in /usr/bin/ on Linux. When installing the package, by giving Python --user flag your package is installed in your user's version of Python, probably located somewhere in ~/.local/.
To solve the problem you can install the package to your system Python, which is generally not recommended without --user flag. Another option is to use virtual environments and have the distribution that is made specifically for your project. Currently the recommended way is using venv.
$ python -m venv env
$ source env/bin/activate
(env) $ pip install ... (packages you need to install without --user flag)
(env) $ pip freeze
# should give you the packages you installed
This can help you not only with this example, but it can always keep your system Python installation clean and if you mess something up, you will only mess the environment you are having for specific project.
I'm using Mac OS X 10.10. I want to use pip to install packages for my homebrew installed version of python (located in /usr/local/bin/python, which is an alias that points to /usr/local/Cellar/python/2.7.11/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin). It appears that site-packages for this version are here: /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/.
which python returns /usr/local/bin/python
which pip returns /usr/local/bin/pip
These seem correct to me.
Trying something like pip install pylzma returns:
Collecting pylzma
Installing collected packages: pylzma
Successfully installed pylzma
You are using pip version 8.0.2, however version 8.1.1 is available.
You should consider upgrading via the 'pip install --upgrade pip' command.
But then pip list does not show pylzma to be installed. It looks like pip installs the packages to /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages (the python that ships with Mac OS X).
How can I get pip to install to my homebrewed python?
I've tried a number of suggestions from similar questions:
I've tried export PATH=/usr/local/bin/python:${PATH}.
I've tried pip install --install-option="--prefix=/usr/local/lib/python2.7" pylzma.
I've tried changing the first line of the pip executable script to #!/usr/local/bin/python
I've tried /usr/local/bin/python -m pip install pylzma.
But none of these work. I also tried upgrading pip to 8.1.1, but that made pip break entirely. People recommend using virtualenv, but as far as I know, I can't install that without pip.
When I type python -m pip, it says:
Usage:
/usr/local/opt/python/bin/python2.7 -m pip <command> [options]
Could that be a problem?
My issue was that my /Users/<username>/.pydistutils.cfg contained the following:
[easy_install]
# set the default location to install packages
install_dir = /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages
[install]
install_lib = /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages
install_scripts = ~/bin
I changed this to:
[easy_install]
# set the default location to install packages
install_dir = /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages
[install]
install_lib = /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages
install_scripts = ~/bin
That seemed to have worked. pip install now installs packages to the desired location /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages.
However, I am have ongoing path issues.
import pylzma still gives me ImportError: No module named pylzma.
and running jupyter notebook in terminal gives -bash: jupyter: command not found. /Users/<username>/bin/jupyter notebook does execute, but I get ImportError: No module named markupsafe despite the fact that /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/MarkupSafe-0.23.dist-info exists.
EDIT: I got jupyter notebook working eventually. I had to install several packages from the source tarballs directly, including MarkupSafe, functools32, and jsonschema. Maybe Python is not looking in the correct folder or something.

No boto is listed. Nothing interesting in the pip log.
Any ideas?
Installing boto3 using below shows boto3 in the list.
sudo python -m pip install boto3
You are not installing it as part of your python installation. You are installing the package to a specific directory using the --target option.
Without the --target option, your package would be installed to the site-packages directory of your python installation.
You find your site-packages directory(s) like this:
~$ python
>>> import site
>>> site.getsitepackages()
['<path>', ...]
>>>
pip list shows the pip installed packages in site-packages.
In other words, your package boto is not "installed" at all, and you won't be able to do the following without getting an error:
~$ python
>>> import boto
>>>
Unless you happen to be in the /Users/me/Projects/myproject directory at the time.
I am trying to install waferslim (A python port of the fitnesse slim server and protocols) into my python environment. Waferslim is in the Python package library PyPI, however when I try to install it using pip it doesn't work, I get a package not found error:
(test) C:\Python27\VirtualEnvs\test\Scripts>pip install waferslim
Downloading/unpacking waferslim
Could not find any downloads that satisfy the requirement waferslim
Cleaning up...
No distributions at all found for waferslim
But if I try installing it with easy_install, it is installed correctly. Why does this happen? Is there a way I can install it using Pip instead of easy_install? I wrote a requirements.txt file that holds all the dependencies for my project, but running pip install -r requirements.txt fails because of waferslim.
I'm new to virtualenv (on windows). I'm trying to use pip (1.5) install a local wheel file, but it is failing.
The command is:
pip install --no-index -f C:/Users/<User>/Download openpyxl
In the pip.log, I can see where it finds the correct file, but then doesn't try to install it:
Skipping link file:///C:/Users/<User>/Download/openpyxl-1.7.0-py2.py3-none-any.whl; unknown archive format: .whl
I have wheel (version 0.22) install globally as well as in the virtual environment. Any idea how I can get .whl to be a recognized format?
It appears wheel support is disabled.
Make sure that you have setuptools version 0.8 or newer installed, and that the use-wheel option is not set to false in $HOME/.pip/pip.conf.
Upgrading setuptools is easy enough if pip is already working:
pip install --upgrade setuptools
but note that older virtualenv versions can depend on older setuptools versions; you'll need to make sure that virtualenv is also up to date.
I have bumped into the same problem with wheel when downloaded requirements with:
pip install --download /pip_mirror six django_debug_toolbar
dir2pi /pip_mirror/
and tried to install them with:
pip install six-1.7.3-py2.py3-none-any.whl
Even though there is no any config at $HOME/.pip/pip.conf and
$ easy_install --version
setuptools 5.4.1
I still get:
unknown archive format: .whl
I have managed to avoid the problem by adding --no-use-wheel like this, so got only tar.gz files (instead of .whl)
pip install --no-use-wheel --download /pip_mirror six django_debug_toolbar
dir2pi /pip_mirror/
After this pip install --index-url=file:///pip_mirror/simple/ six went without any problems
