ImportError: No module named 'EventRegistry' - Python3

[grantgumina]

EventRegistry doesn't seem to work out of the box with Python3 like promised. Here are the steps I took:

From the terminal: pip3 install eventregistry

Then python3 test.py (source code is included below - it's literally just importing and referencing EventRegistry)

Which gives me the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "test.py", line 1, in <module>
    from eventregistry import *
  File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.5/lib/python3.5/site-packages/eventregistry/__init__.py", line 1, in <module>
    from EventRegistry import *
ImportError: No module named 'EventRegistry'

I can reproduce this behavior both on OSX 10.12.1 and Bash for Windows (although I'd expect the latter to be a bit buggy).

The test.py file is just the following:

from eventregistry import *

er = EventRegistry()

can I ask you to please the code in

/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.5/lib/python3.5/site-packages/eventregistry/init.py

from

from EventRegistry import *

to

from eventregistry import *

I think this is a leftover from old version where we used captialized folder name. Let me know if this works so that I commit the change (on Windows it works even as it is now).

Thanks Gregor. I did that, but now I'm getting the following:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "test.py", line 3, in <module>
    er = EventRegistry()
NameError: name 'EventRegistry' is not defined

Hi Grant, sorry, my bad - the problem was obviously somewhere else - on python 3, module imports don't work like in python 2 so I had to change the module to import like "from eventregistry.EventRegistry import *". I've uploaded the new version of the module so you can pull it from github or using pip.

Let me know if you have any more issues.

Best, Gregor

Yup that fixed it! Thanks for putting up with my noobishness, Gregor. Your library is excellent.

Hello, I have the same problem of grantgumina. But, I can't solve. I have this python version: python 3.7. My code is the following one: import csv, os from eventregistry import* import datetime

er = EventRegistry(apiKey="myapi")

q = QueryArticlesIter(keywords=QueryItems.AND(["Migranti", "Africa", "Italia"]), \ dateStart=datetime.date(2019, 8, 1), dateEnd=datetime.date(2019, 9, 26), \ isDuplicateFilter="skipDuplicates", \ lang="ita") print(q) But, I receive the following error: Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:/Users/mandf/Desktop/csvpython/eventregistry.py", line 3, in from eventregistry import* File "C:\Users\mandf\Desktop\csvpython\eventregistry.py", line 6, in er = EventRegistry(apiKey="myapi") NameError: name 'EventRegistry' is not defined

What should I do?

It seems that you don't have the package installed. If you have multiple versions of python then make sure that you install the package in the same version where you are trying to use it.
