  • 0

I’m using OS X with Sublime text build 2181, and I am having trouble using the Yaml module in a Sublime Text plugin.

I have installed PyYaml by doing python setup.py install. When I go to the python console, and try import yaml I have no problems. But when I try to save my Sublime Text plugin with the import yaml statement, I keep getting ImportError: No module name yaml

I’m using the pre-installed version of Python, version 2.7.

Last line of the install output:

Writing /Users/me/Developer/Cellar/python/2.7.2/lib/python2.7/site-packages/PyYAML-3.10-py2.7.egg-info

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    /Users/me/Developer/Cellar/python/2.7.2/lib/python2.7 doesn’t seem like a pre-installed version of Python on a Mac. Can you try to identify the system-wide Python installation and use the explicit path to the python executable to execute setup.py install? Then try the Sublime Text plug-in.

    The default Mac OS X Python should be located at /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/...
