I am using kali linux and is trying to import a module called requests to run an exploit. (https://www.exploit-db.com/exploits/47138) if you want to know more about the exploit.
when i try to run the following command
sudo pip install requests
i kept getting this result
Requirement already satisfied: requests in /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages (2.23.0)
this cant work at all as i requires the Requests module to be in python2.
How can i get it installed?
pip install <package> -t <directory>
-t specifies the target directory where you want your package to be installed
So in your case you can do pip install requests -t "C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages" (This is where my site-packages folder is.)
You should use this command, it will ensure you are installing the module for python2:
python2 -m pip install --user --upgrade requests
You could use the following command:
sudo pip2.7 install requests
(Assuming that you have Python 2.7. If you have a different version, swap out the version number)
There are several versions of python on my mac OS X system.
I just installed beautiful soup4 on python2.7.6, but how can I install the same module on the version 3.4.3?
From the BeautifulSoup Official Documentation:
Beautiful Soup 4 is published through PyPi, so if you can’t install it
with the system packager, you can install it with easy_install or pip.
The package name is beautifulsoup4, and the same package works on
Python 2 and Python 3.
$ easy_install beautifulsoup4
$ pip install beautifulsoup4
You should always use a virtualenv. For each project, install the requirements you need inside that project's own virtualenv.
I have installed new system and time has come to install Python and modules I have lost..
I had no problems with BeautifulSoup but can't make Ghost.py into work!
Using Fedora 21 and Python-3.4.3.
I have tried pip install pyside and then pip install ghost but I guess it worked only for an old python 2.7. Also pip3 install.. respectively.
It would be awesome if any of you could help me install this module :)
You need to literally call the install for Ghost.py since the module isn't named ghost through PyPi.
Python2:
pip install Ghost.py
Python3:
python3.4 -m ensurepip
pip3.4 install Ghost.py
Note: You may need to use sudo to install pip.
Then you will be able to use Ghost:
from ghost import Ghost
ghost = Ghost()
Note: Do make sure that you have OpenSSL installed before any installation of Python where you intend to use Ghost.
See: Ghost.py.
I tried importing requests:
import requests
But I get an error:
ImportError: No module named requests
Requests is not a built in module (does not come with the default python installation), so you will have to install it:
OSX/Linux
Python 2: sudo pip install requests
Python 3: sudo pip3 install requests
if you have pip installed (pip is the package installer for python and should come by default with your python installation).
If pip is installed but not in your path you can use python -m pip install requests (or python3 -m pip install requests for python3)
Alternatively you can also use sudo easy_install -U requests if you have easy_install installed.
Linux
Alternatively you can use your systems package manager:
For centos: sudo yum install python-requests
For Debian/Ubuntu Python2: sudo apt-get install python-requests
For Debian/Ubuntu Python3: sudo apt-get install python3-requests
Windows
Use pip install requests (or pip3 install requests for python3) if you have pip installed and Pip.exe added to the Path Environment Variable. If pip is installed but not in your path you can use python -m pip install requests (or python3 -m pip install requests for python3)
Alternatively from a cmd prompt, use > Path\easy_install.exe requests, where Path is your Python*\Scripts folder, if it was installed. (For example: C:\Python32\Scripts)
If you manually want to add a library to a windows machine, you can download the compressed library, uncompress it, and then place it into the Lib\site-packages folder of your python path. (For example: C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages)
From Source (Universal)
For any missing library, the source is usually available at https://pypi.python.org/pypi/. You can download requests here: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/requests
On mac osx and windows, after downloading the source zip, uncompress it and from the termiminal/cmd run python setup.py install from the uncompressed dir.
(source)
It's not obvious to me which version of Python you are using.
If it's Python 3, a solution would be sudo pip3 install requests
To install requests module on Debian/Ubuntu for Python2:
$ sudo apt-get install python-requests
And for Python3 the command is:
$ sudo apt-get install python3-requests
Brew users can use reference below,
command to install requests:
python3 -m pip install requests
Homebrew and Python
pip is the package installer for Python and you need the package requests.
This may be a liittle bit too late but this command can be run even when pip path is not set. I am using Python 3.7 running on Windows 10 and this is the command
py -m pip install requests
and you can also replace 'requests' with any other uninstalled library
If you are using Ubuntu, there is need to install requests
run this command:
pip install requests
if you face permission denied error, use sudo before command:
sudo pip install requests
In my case requests was already installed, but needed an upgrade. The following command did the trick
$ sudo pip install requests --upgrade
On OSX, the command will depend on the flavour of python installation you have.
Python 2.x - Default
sudo pip install requests
Python 3.x
sudo pip3 install requests
On Windows Open Command Line
pip3 install requests
I had the same issue, so I copied the folder named "requests" from https://pypi.python.org/pypi/requests#downloadsrequests download to
"/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages".
Now when you use: import requests, it should work fine.
In the terminal/command-line:
pip install requests
then use it inside your Python script by:
import requests
or else if you want to use pycharm IDE to install a package:
go to setting from File in menu
next go to Python interpreter
click on pip
search for requests package and install it
Adding Third-party Packages to the Application
Follow this link
https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/python/tools/libraries27?hl=en#vendoring
step1 : Have a file by named a file named appengine_config.py in the root of your project, then add these lines:
from google.appengine.ext import vendor
Add any libraries installed in the "lib" folder.
vendor.add('lib')
Step 2: create a directory and name it "lib" under root directory of project.
step 3: use pip install -t lib requests
step 4 : deploy to app engine.
Try sudo apt-get install python-requests.
This worked for me.
If you are using anaconda as your python package manager, execute the following:
conda install -c anaconda requests
Installing requests through pip didn't help me.
The only thing that worked for me:
curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py -o get-pip.py
python get-pip.py
pip install requests
Facing the same issue but unable to fix it with the above solution, so I tried this way and it worked:-
curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/pip/2.7/get-pip.py --output get-pip.py
sudo python2 get-pip.py
python -m pip install requests
For windows just give path as cd and path to the "Scripts" of python and then execute the command easy_install.exe requests.Then try import requests...
I have had this issue a couple times in the past few months. I haven't seen a good solution for fedora systems posted, so here's yet another solution. I'm using RHEL7, and I discovered the following:
If you have urllib3 installed via pip, and requests installed via yum you will have issues, even if you have the correct packages installed. The same will apply if you have urllib3 installed via yum, and requests installed via pip. Here's what I did to fix the issue:
sudo pip uninstall requests
sudo pip uninstall urllib3
sudo yum remove python-urllib3
sudo yum remove python-requests
(confirm that all those libraries have been removed)
sudo yum install python-urllib3
sudo yum install python-requests
Just be aware that this will only work for systems that are running Fedora, Redhat, or CentOS.

Python Common installation issues
These commands are also useful if Homebrew screws up your path on macOS.
python -m pip install requests
or
python3 -m pip install requests
Multiple versions of Python installed in parallel?
You must make sure your requests module is not being installed in a more recent version of python.
When using python 3.7, run your python file like:
python3 myfile.py
or enter python interactive mode with:
python3
Yes, this works for me. Run your file like this: python3 file.py
I have installed python2.7 and python3.6
Open Command Line to ~/.bash_profile I find that #Setting PATH for Python 3.6 , So
I change the path to PATH="/usr/local/Cellar/python/2.7.13/bin:${PATH}" ,
(please make sure your python2.7's path) ,then save.
It works for me.
if you want request import on windows:
pip install request
then beautifulsoup4 for:
pip3 install beautifulsoup4
Please try the following. If one doesn't work, skip to the next method.
pip install requests
or...
pip3 install requests
or...
python -m pip install requests
or...
python3 -m pip install requests
or...
python -m pip3 install requests
If all of these don't work, please leave a comment!
How does this work? Depending on the operating system you currently use, the pip command may vary or not work on some. These are the commands you may try in order for a fix.
In case you hit pip install requests and had an output massage of Requirement already satisfied but yet you still get the error: ImportError: No module named requests.
This is likely to happen when you find yourself in a different interpreter/virtual environment.
You can copy and append the path of the module into your working environment.
Note: This path usually comes with the message Requirement already satisfied
Before import requests, you should import sys and then append the copied path.
Example:
Command Prompt:
pip install requests
Output:
Requirement already satisfied: requests in /usr/local/lib/python3.9/site-packages
import sys
sys.path.append("/usr/local/lib/python3.9/site-packages")
import requests
I solved this problem.You can try this method.
In this file '.bash_profile', Add codes like alias python=/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin/python2.7
Type this command in Command Prompt (Windows) or Terminal (Linux/macOS):
pip install requests
My answer is basically the same as #pi-k. In my case my program worked locally but failed to build on QA servers. (I suspect devops had older versions of the package blocked and my version must have been too out-of-date) I just decided to upgrade everything
$ pip install pip-review
$ pip-review --local --interactive
You get an import error because requests are not a built-in module instead, it is created by someone else and you need to install the requests.
use the following command on your terminal then it will work correctly.
pip install requests
Install python requests library and this error will be solved.
I found that my issue was VSCode was reading from the wrong Python Interpreter. This youtube tutorial solved it for me.
If you are using anaconda
step 1:
where python
step 2:
open anaconda prompt in administrator mode
step 3:
cd <python path>
step 4:
install the package in this location
