I am trying to install and use the Evernote module (https://github.com/evernote/evernote-sdk-python) . I ran pip install evernote
and it says that the installation worked.
I can confirm that the evernote module exists in /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages
. However, when I try to run python -c "import evernote"
I get the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named evernote
This is the contents of my .bash-profile
:
[[ -s "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" ]] && source "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" # Load RVM into a shell session *as a function*
# Setting PATH for Python 3.3
# The orginal version is saved in .bash_profile.pysave
PATH="/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.3/bin:${PATH}"
export PATH
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin/
I am having this same problem with other modules installed with pip
. Help?
EDIT: I am a super newbie and have not edited that .bash-profile
file.
EDIT: python -c 'import sys; print "\n".join(sys.path)'
Outputs the following:
/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/setuptools-1.3.2-py2.7.egg
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python27.zip

EDIT: I seemed to have made progress towards a solution by adding export PYTHONPATH=“/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages”
to my .bash_profile
file. However, now when I run python -c 'from evernote.api.client import EvernoteClient'
it tries to import oauth2, which fails with the same error. The ouath2 module is present in the module directory.
/usr/bin/python
is the executable for the python that comes with OS X. /usr/local/lib
is a location for user-installed programs only, possibly from Python.org or Homebrew. So you're mixing different Python installs, and changing the python path is only a partial workaround for different packages being installed for different installations.
In order to make sure you use the pip
associated with a particular python, you can run python -m pip install <pkg>
, or go look at what the pip
on your path is, or is symlinked to.
