Google Cloud SDK importError: no module named cloud.google

I am new to Linux and trying to run a Python script that needs the following: 'from google.cloud import pubsub'

I'm getting the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "file.py", line 2, in <module>
    from google.cloud import pubsub
ImportError: No module named google.cloud

How can I give access to this module? I have installed Google's Cloud SDK. I assume it has something to do with providing the path to this SDK "module" in some file?

If this only happened when you deployed to app engine, then considering the following solution (it worked for me):

1, in the same directory of your app engine project (usually where you put your **.py, **.yaml, and index.html), add a python file named "appengine_config.py"

2, put the following code into your appengine_config.py:

# appengine_config.py
from google.appengine.ext import vendor

# Add any libraries install in the "lib" folder.
vendor.add('lib')

3, make sure on that directory you also has a "lib" folder that contains your library import (check if google.cloud is there)

4, deploy it and that problem should be resolved.

If you want use pubsub in Python script, you should install via pip like this:

  • Install pip and virtualenv

    sudo apt-get install python-pip python-dev build-essential
sudo pip install virtualenv

  • Create new environment and activate that

    cd project-folder
virtualenv env
source env/bin/activate

  • Install pubsub module

    pip install google-cloud-pubsub
