Install module in python locally

Question

I have a very basic question. I want to install a new module on my computer in order to use it in Python (via Spyder). When I install the package via pip everything seems to work fine. When I want to import the package in my script it says that there is no module by that name (see scrennshot below)

Any suggestions what might be the problem?

Thanks a lot :)

Answer 1

You're using pip3 to install.

Try installing using pip install nibabel .

Failing that, I would refer you to the following question: Which pip is with which python?

This is a common pitfall of using different versions of Python and pip.

Answer 2

Thanks for asking the question. Have tried conda install Since we are in anaconda dev env.

Answer 3

I think

/Applications/Spyder.app/Contents/MacOS/python -m pip install nibabel or /Applications/Spyder.app/Contents/MacOS/python -m pip3 install nibabel

will solve your problem
