Very weird. Have you made edits to your python implementation? As it is odd that it can't find the command "import" - it is a standard python method.

@Dom1n1c - think the shebang was broken.

Try again now

Fixed with https://github.com/PiSupply/PaPiRus/commit/069da25dd11dbc9e8e6cf5fc534b8b56bb6d062c

Great, that's it. Is there a way to import the required modules when installing PaPiRus? For papirus-twitter, this would be twython.

I implemented a routine for my mqtt dashboard, to install pip and paho-mqtt

[shawaj]

Do you mean you don't haven't twython installed by standard and had to install it?

On Raspbian?

[3DJupp]

Exactly. It's just a suggestion to make the installation easier. Is there a way to check, if pip is installed or a module brought by pip? Installing them is possible, but it takes a few moments.

[shawaj]

That's a good idea - and/or add documentation for it.

Can you submit that as a new issue?
