maybe I'm running the script wrong

➜  craigslist-scraper git:(master) ✗ python clstates.py
Traceback (most recent call last):

    from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
ImportError: No module named bs4

Hey Marc - I think you're either running an older version of python or have not installed Beautiful Soup...

sudo pip install bs4

which bs4
bs4 not found
marclundgren commented 10 years ago

that's probably why

You should install bs4 using easy_install. I did it like so: sudo su easy_install BeautifulSoup4

The correct command to install Beautiful Soup 4 is pip install beautifulsoup4, not pip install bs4.
