外部库上pydev的DistributionNotFound错误

Question

I am trying to do my first python program using an external Ckan library . I added the library and it seems to be working because the command import ckanap does not give me no errors. BUT when i try to run the program, i get this error

pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: ckanapi

the full error message (if needed) is this

Finding files... done.

OK

I have search the internet about it, but the error is not much helpfull, let alone that i am complete newbie to python.

by the way, i get this error even with no commands at all, just with the import statement

Edit
Output of command python -c "import sys ; print( '\\n'.join(sorted(sys.path)))"

I think this is an installation issue with ckanapi...

It seems it has many dependencies: https://github.com/ckan/ckanapi/blob/master/requirements.txt

How did you install it? Have you tried pip install ckanapi?
