I am trying to use python in order to simulate social networks, this requires matplotlib.pyplot, networkx and xlrd. Everything works fine from terminal, IDLE or X11 but when I try to use TextMate import matplotlib.pyplot as plt and import xlrd throws up ImportError: No module named… however import networkx works fine!
I downloaded python via EPD and so matplotlib came ready baked in however I got xlrd and networkx with easy_install.
Anybody have an idea what might be going on?
You need to tell TextMate which Python to use. One way to do that is to define the shell variable
TM_PYTHONwith an absolute path to the Python interpreter you want to use. In the TextMate menu, selectPreferences, then theAdvancedtab, then theShell Variablestab, and click+to add the new variable. If you don’t know the absolute path to the EPD Python, typewhich python(or whatever you are using to start Python) in a Terminal shell window.
