Can not import google.cloud module in python script

Question

I am following this article trying to make my Python script read labels related to an image using Google Cloud Vision API . The problem is that I am getting this error when trying to include a reference to vision from google.cloud module.

import io
from google.cloud import vision
from google.cloud.vision import types

The error that I am getting says:

ImportError: No module named 'google.cloud'

This is weird because when I do:

$ pip show google-cloud

I can see it is there and its files are located at:

/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/google_cloud-0.34.0.dist-info/*

Except for that, when I do pip freeze in my working folder I can see them both that I need available:

google-cloud==0.34.0
google-cloud-vision==0.33.0

I am now wondering what could be the reason for not being able to see include this module in my Python script.

Answer 1

不推荐使用google-cloud软件包，您应该卸载它并安装google-cloud-vision 。

Answer 2

This link might provide some assistance:

Edited

upon looking into it further, I was able to do the following:

pip install google-cloud-vision

and import everything with:

import io
import os
from google.cloud import vision
from google.cloud.vision import types

Maybe try uninstalling the package through pip and reinstalling it with the above?
