I am working on small python scripts. Basically i am not a python programmer and very new to it. Recently i have been working on IOT protocol MQTT. I have installed a open source MQTT clinet based on python3 in my raspberypi board. And now i am facing a problem. I have python 2.7 and 3.2 installed.
My MQTT client work with Python3.x and i want to use pyserial library also which i am not able to , i am getting a error
Serial module not found
I goggled a bit and end up here.. Now it say that you need to install pip3 in order to install pyserial for python3.x.
I tried to install pip3 using this link , but end up installing pip2 using
pip install -U pip
I feel totally being messed up now. I just want to use pyserial while working with python3.x version.Can any one suggest me how?
Edit 1:
On Linux, Mac OS X and other POSIX systems, use the versioned Python commands in combination with the -m switch to run the appropriate copy of pip:
python2 -m pip install SomePackage # default Python 2
python2.7 -m pip install SomePackage # specifically Python 2.7
python3 -m pip install SomePackage # default Python 3
python3.4 -m pip install SomePackage # specifically Python 3.4
I recently came through this documentation given here . But it even give a error to me /usr/bin/python3 : NO module named pip. main : 'pip' is a package and cannot be installed directly.
Assuming you're using raspbian on your pi, you could install pip3 from the normal repositories:
apt-get install python3-pip
You can get the serial module the same way:
apt-get install python3-serial
I succeeded installing pyserial2.7 on a Mac running Yosemite and Python3.4
I entered the pyserial-x.y directory and run:
python3 setup.py install
I got lot of errors that I corrected one by one by editing the files containing the syntax errors. Only 2 types of errors are encountered:
- print needs ()
- except needs as instead of ,
So by correcting the dozen of errors with some patience, installation finish correctly.
I wonder why a syntactically correct version for Python3 is not ready!

I'm working on a Pyramid project that has to be deployed in a Debian 7 server.
The Debian 7 server has the python version 2.7.3 as from the archives repositories.
After creating a virtual environment with virtualenv command the pip version installed in this virtualenv is 1.1.
First thing noted: I can't upgrade pip with pip install --upgrade pip. The version is not updated and remains in 1.1 version.
After installing the OS packages needed to install the project I ran python setup.py install but I get the error:
Searching for zipp==0.5
Reading http://pypi.python.org/simple/zipp/
Couldn't find index page for 'zipp' (maybe misspelled?)
Scanning index of all packages (this may take a while)
Reading http://pypi.python.org/simple/
No local packages or download links found for zipp==0.5
error: Could not find suitable distribution for Requirement.parse('zipp==0.5')
So, the python setup.py install command could not recognize the zipp package.
I thought that this was related to the older version of pip (1.1). So I could update pip version successfully using the index-url option:
$ pip install --index-url https://pypi.python.org/simple --upgrade pip
That updated pip version from 1.1 to 20.3b1. Then I tried python setup.py install again, but the same error occurred.
What I could see is that, after updating pip version, the zipp==0.5.0 package is installed if I ran pip install zipp==0.5.
I'm new to Pyramid and the package installing using the setup.py module. I'm not understanding why I can install the zipp package with pip and can't with python setup.py install.
I'm not putting the content of setup.py here because I think it's not a problem of the setup.py script. With more recent versions of python and pip in an Ubuntu 18.04 machine the setup.py works like a charm.
Someone could explain how to solve this issue?
When you run python setup.py install directly, you are not using pip, so the version of pip you have installed is irrelevant. This command is antiquated, should not be used, etc, etc. The right answer is to use pip install . as a replacement for python setup.py install and to use pip install -e . as a replacement for python setup.py develop.
With respect to what you're seeing, when you run python setup.py install this using the version of easy_install bundled with setuptools to talk to PyPI and install dependencies. This should be avoided for a lot of reasons but just know that to override urls it uses they go in ~/.pydistutils.cfg and have nothing to do with pip. HTTPS is one problem that you looked at, another is that old versions of Python do not have the right CA trust store, nor support the minimum required TLS 1.2 to handshake with PyPI. So expect lots of problems using old tools - at the very least try to use pip instead of easy_install.
I'm following the directions from the Biopython website (http://biopython.org/wiki/Download) but I keep getting an error during installation. I have python 2.7 installed on my laptop.
python2.7 -m pip install biopython
I just get the error:
No module named pip
I looked up this error and tried something stack overflow suggested:
sudo apt-get install python-pip
But I just got another error:
sudo: apt-get: command not found
As long as you have Python 2.7.9 onwards this should automatically install pip for you:
python -m ensurepip
It would be useful to know what Operating System you have to help improve the instructions here.
Many dependency issues are solved here at Annaconda where you fetch python, lots of nice libs, etc.. Install it accordingly to your platform.. windows, Linux or Mac OS.
Biopython is installed by Annaconda by default (including matplotlib and other dependencies)... if I recall correctly. Otherwise its from commandline conda search biopython and or conda install pip. And then commandline pip install biopython.
I have 2 versions of Python installed on my PC (Windows 7, 64Bit).
Python 2.7 Version installed with Anaconda
Python 3.6 Version installed directly from python.org (the "regular IDLE")
Now, i would like to install the necessary packages on the 3.6 using pip, but anaconda keeps on hijacking the command.
For example, on typing in the cmd window:
pip install numpy
and i get:
Requirement already satisfied: numpy in
c:\users\georges\anaconda2\lib\site_packages
Which is the case for python2.7, but i was trying to install it for version 3.6 installed without Anaconda.
I tried re-installing pip hoping it would erase the hijacking by Anaconda2 ... failed.
I am contemplating to remove Anaconda2 altogether although i risk that in windows, removing a programme does not necessaraly remove the dependencies.
Any lead please ?
I think what you are looking for is pip3 install pip3 and you should be able install packages for python3
It should come as standard with python3 installation setup.
First check if it is there with
where pip3
For any further issues check this post
You don't need to uninstall anaconda2. Both python versions can co-exist and libraries different managed by different package installers pip for python 2 and pip3 for python 3 respectively.
Hope this answers your question.
Install it with pip3, because you want it for python 3:
pip3 install numpy
So I tried to install pip using the get-pip.py file, and when I ran the file, terminal told me I already had pip installed on 2.7. However, when I try to find the version of my pip, terminal tells me pip doesn't exist and points to a version of 3.5 I have installed. Clearly my issue is that I have pip installed on v2.7 but the pip command is linked to v3.5. Any clues on how to fix?
Here's a picture of my terminal output:
To install a package in a particular version of python, use the following commands always:
For python 2.x:
sudo python -m pip install [package]
For python 3.x:
sudo python3 -m pip install [package]
This should resolve the doubt of which python version is the given package getting installed for.
Note: This is assuming you have not created aliases for the python command
I'm fairly new to python. I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 and have both python 2.7.6 and python 3.4.0 installed. I was trying to install BeautifulSoup but couldn't because I get an error saying
The program 'pip' is currently not installed.
I found that it comes bundles with python 3.4. I tried to install pip using sudo easy_install pip as mentioned in another question on stackoverflow. But this gives an error sudo: easy_install: command not found.
What is the problem?
pip appears to have turned into python -m pip (in your case, python3 -m pip, as Ubuntu's keeping the 2.x line available as python) in Python 3.4.
easy_install for Python 2.7 comes as part of the python-setuptools package. Once installed, running easy_install pip would install pip for your Python 2.7 installation's use.
How aboutapt-get install python-pip? At least, Debian official repository has python-pip even from wheezy.
Unfortunately, effective as of April 2018, python-setuptools no longer ships with easy_install, as per Matthias's update:
https://ubuntu.pkgs.org/18.04/ubuntu-main-i386/python-setuptools_39.0.1-2_all.deb.html
However, you can still compile from the source code yourself, and it does work. I just tried it with sudo easy_install shodan, and it ran successfully.
git clone https://github.com/pypa/setuptools.git
cd ./setuptools
python3 bootstrap.py
sudo python3 setup.py install
Hope this helps.
