Python没有找到elasticsearch包

Question

I just installed with pip install elasticsearch the right package, but is not being found by my .py script.

I have this right now:

ls /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages

README                       pip-1.5.6-py2.7.egg          urllib3-1.8.3-py2.7.egg-info virtualenv.py                virtualenv_support
easy-install.pth             urllib3                      virtualenv-1.11.6.dist-info  virtualenv.pyc

ls /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/

easy-install.pth              elasticsearch-1.0.0.dist-info setuptools-4.0.1-py2.7.egg    sitecustomize.py
elasticsearch                 pip-1.5.6-py2.7.egg           setuptools.pth                sitecustomize.pyc

Now when I run my script myelastic.py:

import sys
print sys.path

from elasticsearch import Elasticsearch
es = Elasticsearch()

I have this:

['/Users/tati/Desktop/python', '/Applications/MAMP/Library/lib/python27.zip', '/Applications/MAMP/Library/lib/python2.7', '/Applications/MAMP/Library/lib/python2.7/plat-darwin', '/Applications/MAMP/Library/lib/python2.7/plat-mac', '/Applications/MAMP/Library/lib/python2.7/plat-mac/lib-scriptpackages', '/Applications/MAMP/Library/lib/python2.7/lib-tk', '/Applications/MAMP/Library/lib/python2.7/lib-old', '/Applications/MAMP/Library/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload', '/Applications/MAMP/Library/lib/python2.7/site-packages']
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "myelastic.py", line 5, in <module>
    from elasticsearch import Elasticsearch
ImportError: No module named elasticsearch

It's the first time I work with virtualenv, but I'm not sure how to work around this issue, thanks!

Answer 1

You have called your file the same name as the module:

File "/Users/tati/Desktop/python/elasticsearch.py" .

It is shadowing the module name so you are importing from your file not the elasticsearch module. Just rename your .py to something other than elasticsearch.py .

I had the same issue. I fixed it by adding to my .bash_profile :

export PYTHONPATH=/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages
