Tabula-py - ImportError: No module named tabula

I am trying to use Tabula-py to read a pdf. I installed tabula-py through pip install tabula-py

I have also installed the required dependencies

requests
pandas
pytest
flake8

My code is currently as follows:

import tabula
import pandas as pd

df = tabula.read_pdf("report.pdf", pages=2)
print(df)

I am getting the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "tabula_pdf_reader.py", line 1, in <module>
  import tabula
ImportError: No module named tabula

Any inputs to what I am missing here?

I had this problem in Azure ML studio. I solved the issue by changing the python interpreter to Python 3.8 - AzureML (might be different for you, try different ones or maybe the interpreter can be deducted from the path below). Then include the path to the installed packages with:

import sys
sys.path.append('/anaconda/envs/azureml_py38/lib/python3.8/site-packages')

Change the path to whatever you get when you run:

from distutils.sysconfig import get_python_lib
print(get_python_lib())

hopefully it helps someone :)

For macOS users - an update to Monterey operating system will solve the problem.

I got the same issue here when executing on Terminal. However, after I ran by starting with 'ipython3' instead of 'ipython', it worked perfectly. You have to make sure that tabula-py module is installed in python3 directory, not python2

I faced this same issue in Ubuntu.

First, check the version of the JDK and JRE that are installed on your machine by running java --version and javac --version. Each should have a version greater than 7.

Then use pip3 to install tabula.
