Package Usage #155

Closed ross-kruse closed 5 years ago

ross-kruse commented 6 years ago

This has been very helpful to upload files, but I have been unable to use any packages.

All I am trying to do is run a package (I have tried both numpy and textblob) on my Python 3 lambda function and I cannot figure it out. I have a lambda_handler function inside my lambda_function.pyand otherwise have no other file needs.

I have tried installing the env in multiple different places but none of them seem to work. The error I keep getting is Unable to import module 'lambda_function': No module named 'textblob'

The lambda function runs perfectly if I comment out the import line but as soon as as I add it back, I get the error message again.

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. I am working on a Mac. I know I am likely doing something wrong but I can't figure out what. I made sure the handler is lambda_function.lambda_handler

Are you importing the textblob python package? If you are but are not telling the lambda-uploader to install it in the lambda package then it would explain that error.
