Question

Trying to install AlchemyAPI.py-2.5

Can’t get example running.

Debian 6.0

python example/sentiment.py:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "example/sentiment.py", line 4, in <module>
    import AlchemyAPI
ImportError: No module named AlchemyAPI

How do I install that module?
in README it says:

To install this module, copy the desired AlchemyAPI.py file into your desired
Python import directory.

What is my desired directory if I’m running on debian ?

Very confusing, any help appreciated.

Answer 1

You need to rename AlchemyAPI.py-2.5 to AlchemyAPI.py for it to be importable, and add it to the PYTHONPATH (which includes the Python package directories and the working dir).

In your example you can copy the file to: example/AlchemyAPI.py.
