no module named cv2

I tried many versions of installing opencv using pip and python, according to their docs. None of them working. This is error in when running analysis file:

" hrishi@hrishi-Latitude-E5270:~/Dilawar_MB/MouseBehaviour/analysis$ python analyze_trial.py --datadir=/home/../../../ --outdir=/../../analysis

Traceback (most recent call last): File "analyze_trial.py", line 13, in import analyze_trial_video File "/home/hrishi/Dilawar_MB/MouseBehaviour/analysis/analyze_trial_video.py", line 17, in import cv2 ImportError: No module named cv2 "

Already tried updating scikit, numpy, and setuptools.

Some error while trying to install opencv : " Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip-build-moeln923/opencv-python/ "

It started when i tried to install ./requirements.txt in the analysis folder: " Collecting opencv-python (from -r ./requirements.txt (line 5)) Downloading https://files.pythonhosted.org/packages/77/f5/49f034f8d109efcf9b7e98fbc051878b83b2f02a1c73f92bbd37f317288e/opencv-python-4.4.0.42.tar.gz (88.9MB) 100% |████████████████████████████████| 88.9MB 12kB/s Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info: Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in File "/tmp/pip-build-lh0ewe0h/opencv-python/setup.py", line 9, in import skbuild ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'skbuild'

@dilawar the readme file is incomplete too.

Python3, python is probably python2 on 18.04.

I tried all the versions python and python3 commands, pip -m commands, still the issue is there

I figured the issue. Silly mistake.
