physica Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 (edited) I've come a fair way in python 3. I am having trouble installing modules on my mac. Poured hours into it and it's still not working, documentation on the internet that I have managed to find is vague at best. I've used pip and typed: sudo install XlsxWriter into the command line and got the following: usage: install [-bCcpSsv] [-B suffix] [-f flags] [-g group] [-m mode] [-o owner] file1 file2 install [-bCcpSsv] [-B suffix] [-f flags] [-g group] [-m mode] [-o owner] file1 ... fileN directory install -d [-v] [-g group] [-m mode] [-o owner] directory ... Then back to another command prompt... is it ready to use? I'm finding installing modules extremely frustrating Update: I tried running a script and it said ImportError: No module named 'xlsxwriter' Edited February 7, 2016 by physica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fiveworlds Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 (edited) Dunno worked fine for me on windows. I downloaded newest version of python inside is a folder called scripts with pip inside. On windows I had to copy the script to the main python folder with the python.exe file. Then I had to use command prompt cd folder python.exe pip.exe install XlsxWriter and it ran fine. So maybe try downloading from github or something. Edited February 7, 2016 by fiveworlds 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
physica Posted February 8, 2016 Author Share Posted February 8, 2016 Thanks for looking into this. It turns out I was installing it to pip as opposed to pip3. It now works Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
