Use Python Github Repository in Google Colab

Question

I'm trying to clone a Github Repository in Colab and run it. The problem is that Colab says that it couldn't import tqdm.contrib, even if tqdm is contained in Colab.

import os

!git clone https://github.com/scorpion3013/checkolotl
os.chdir("checkolotl/")
!python3 main.py

main.py calls other .py files and it completely works on my PC.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "main.py", line 3, in <module>
    import checkolotl.proxy as proxychecker
  File "/content/checkolotl/checkolotl/proxy.py", line 3, in <module>
    from checkolotl.status import create_bar
  File "/content/checkolotl/checkolotl/status.py", line 4, in <module>
    from tqdm.contrib import DummyTqdmFile
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'tqdm.contrib'

tqdm (progress bars) has its own limitations.
In another project ( keras-team/autokeras ), tqdm was not working either ( issue 307 ) on Google Colab due to the lack of ipywidgets.

This was the PR done in that other project to resolve the issue.
Maybe it can be adapted here.
