ImportError: No module named 'decouple' while deploying on Heroku
I was trying to deploy my django project on heroku from heroku cli. So I created an app and then I ran git push heroku master from the project directory. Then I got the errors:
remote: -----> $ python manage.py collectstatic --noinput
remote: Traceback (most recent call last):

remote: ImportError: No module named 'decouple'
remote:
remote: ! Error while running '$ python manage.py collectstatic --noinput'.
remote: See traceback above for details.
remote:
remote: You may need to update application code to resolve this error.
remote: Or, you can disable collectstatic for this application: remote:
remote: $ heroku config:set DISABLE_COLLECTSTATIC=1
remote:
remote: https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/django-assets
remote: ! Push rejected, failed to compile Python app.
remote:
remote: ! Push failed
So as it is mentioned, I ran heroku config:set DISABLE_COLLECTSTATIC=1.
Then the codes were pushed in the repository. Then I ran heroku run python3 manage.py migrate. But still I got the same error saying:
File "/app/funderpreneur/settings.py", line 15, in
from decouple import Csv, config ImportError: No module named 'decouple'
But I have python-decouple installed locally for both python 2 and 3. And also the whole project is running on django version 2 and python version 3.5.2. But in the runtime.txt I have set python-3.6.4. I have requirements.txt where decouple is already there.
In my settings.py I had
import django_heroku
django_heroku.settings(locals())
But I was getting errors so I commented them. Still getting error.
What is wrong or what am I doing wrong?
Edit
My requirements.txt:
dj-database-url
django
gunicorn
psycopg2
whitenoise
dj-static
Unipath
python-decouple
Pillow
Markdown
bleach
python-decouple
django-material
raven
django-debug-toolbar
django-tables2
django-phonenumber-field
django-guardian
django-notifications-hq
djangorestframework
matplotlib
numpy
seaborn
pandas
django-heroku

Answer
I also had this problem, but by adding
python-decouple==3.1
into the requirements.txt file, I was able to get past it!
