没有名为 soundfile 的模块

Question

Whenever I try to import soundfile I get the error

ImportError: No module named soundfile

I installed pysoundfile seemingly without trouble:

$ sudo pip install pysoundfile
The directory '/Users/theonlygusti/Library/Caches/pip/http' or its parent directory is not owned by the current user and the cache has been disabled. Please check the permissions and owner of that directory. If executing pip with sudo, you may want sudo's -H flag.

so what's causing this problem?

Answer 1

Check if it is installed in a test environment

Example Ways

$ pip install virtualenv
$ python -m virtualenv venv
$ source venv/bin/activate
$ pip install pysoundfile
$ python
>>> import soundfile

Answer 2

PySoundFile depends on the Python packages CFFI and NumPy, and the system library libsndfile.

To install the Python dependencies, I recommend using the Anaconda distribution of Python 3.

This will come with all dependencies pre-installed. To install the dependencies manually, you can use the conda package manager, which will install all dependencies using conda install cffi numpy (conda is also available independently of Anaconda with pip install conda ).

With CFFI and NumPy installed, you can use pip install pysoundfile to download and install the latest release of PySoundFile. On Windows and OS X, this will also install the library libsndfile. On Linux, you need to install libsndfile using your distribution's package manager, for example sudo apt-get install libsndfile1 .

Answer 3

I had the same problem, I guess the problem is with python versions. When I tried with Python 3.5.2

python3 file_name.py
ImportError: No module named 'soundfile'

Instead, I tried the same with Python 2.7.12

python file_name.py

It successfully imported it!
