Question

I’m trying to use django-sendsms based on this documentation

I downloaded the package,copied it’s folder in c: and ran this command in shell

c:
cd django-sendsms
python setup.py install

these commands installed django-sms in sitepackages folder.then based on the documentation I added this backend to settings.py:

SENDSMS_BACKEND = 'sendsms.backends.console.SmsBackend'

and in views.py :

from sendsms import api
api.send_sms(body='I can haz txt', from_phone='[phone]', to=['[phone]'])

but I get this error:

No module named importlib

every thing is based on the documentation,I don’t know what’s wrong with it!

Answer 1

Which version of Python are you using? It seems that module (in sendsms/util.py) will import the library called importlib which only exists in Python 2.7. If you are using Python 2.6 or lower, that library do not exist.
