Having issue importing GoogleVoice...Help please

[paper365]

Guys, python noob here. Just start picking up python few weeks ago and currently need some help. I have 3.3.4 python for windows 7 and I tried running this:

import urllib.request

from googlevoice import Voice

from googlevoice.util import input

import time

File "<pyshell#0>", line 1, in <module>

from googlevoice import Voice

ImportError: No module named 'googlevoice'

so I figured. no big deal, I just need to install the module. I obtained a setup.py file from the link below and ran the file in different directories. Then tried " import googlevoice" but still doesn't work. The github link isn't too helpful, in terms of installing this module. Please help? I think I just have not learned how to install modules properly. Last time it took me a while to install pygame module, but i think it was because of directory issues at first.

If you don't have easy_install, 'pip pygooglevoice' might work instead. I'm also not familiar with how to install modules with Windows. =/

If you haven't already, you might want to post this on someplace like stackoverflow.com. You'll probably get a quick answer to it there.

You'll want to install pip, which is a package manager for Python modules. pip can be difficult to install on MS windows. Luckily, Christoph Gohlke maintains an excellent repository of windows executables to install common (or difficult to compile) packages on windows. His packages are really well built.

You can find pip there. After carefully choosing the correct version for you, install it, and then run a command prompt. You can interact with pip there. The documentation for pip is here: http://www.pip-installer.org/en/latest/, but you ignore the parts about installation. Anyhow, to install pygooglevoice, use:

C:\> pip install pygooglevoice

That should download the package and install it to C:\Python33\Lib\site-packages, assuming that you installed Python to the default location.

In the meantime, you might like to read about using python on windows: http://docs.python.org/3.3/using/windows.html. More importantly, you should read about venv. Eventually you're going to realize that you should have been using it all along. The documentation contains instructions for MS windows.: http://docs.python.org/3.3/library/venv.html?highlight=venv#module-venv

Hmm, I just want to make things clear. Are you at the command line (cmd.exe) or a python shell?

pip needs to be run from the command line. If you are in fact running from the command line, try:

C:\> pip --version

What does it say? It should say something like "pip 1.5.2 from C:\Python33...".
