AttributeError：模块“pytesseract.pytesseract”没有属性“pytesseract”。 你的意思是：'run_tesseract'？

Question

This is the code:

from PIL import Image
from pytesseract import pytesseract
pytesseract.pytesseract.tesseract_cmd = 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Tesseract-OCR\tesseract.exe'
im = Image.open(r"screenshot.png")
text = pytesseract.image_to_string(im)
print(text)

This is the error I get:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "c:\Users\mark\Documents\Scripts\screenshot.py", line 3, in <module>
    pytesseract.pytesseract.tesseract_cmd = 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Tesseract-OCR\tesseract.exe'
AttributeError: module 'pytesseract.pytesseract' has no attribute 'pytesseract'. Did you mean: 'run_tesseract'?

I've done almost everything that's recommended here: installing Tesseract-OCR, adding it to the environment variables, pip install, etc...

what am I missing?

from pytesseract import pytesseract

This import statement means that there is a module named pytesseract.pytesseract , and as a convenience, you're calling it simply pytesseract .

pytesseract.pytesseract.tesseract_cmd = '...'

In order for that line of code to work, there would have to be a module named pytesseract.pytesseract.pytesseract , which seems doubtful.
