pyserial, ImportError: No module named serial

I know this question have been asked several times, but none of the solutions I saw solved my problem.

I have been trying to use the serial library from Sublime Text 2 in my mac.

import serial

Everytime I call this library, I get this message: 

  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/Users/andreapatri/Desktop/test.py", line 1, in <module>
      import serial
  ImportError: No module named serial
  [Finished in 0.0s with exit code 1]

I already installed python 3

brew install python3

and pyserial

sudo pip install pyserial

I am new using mac. Can you please tell me how to fix the error?

Try in anaconda command prompt as:

conda install -c anaconda pyserial

Make sure your relevant serial port is not already used by another program or process that has exclusive access to serial communication.

I hope this helps.😊

sudo python3 -m pip install pyserial did the trick for me on Mac OSx Catalina 10.15.6.

Use python3 for running your script. If you try to use python, you will get this error message.

python3 <scriptname>.py
