how to use pip in python

I'm trying to use python-telegram-bot. (The version of python is 3) I installed it using pip install python-telegram-bot

I run a file with the next code:

from telegram import Updater

And I get the next error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "pyStart.py", line 1, in <module>
from telegram import Updater
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'telegram'

Even when using from python-telegram-bot, I get an error

File "pyStart.py", line 1
from python-telegram-bot import Updater
           ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

What causes the error?

Try installing it with pip3:

pip3 install python-telegram-bot

If that's not working:

python3 -m pip install python-telegram-bot

If you don't have pip3, you can install it with this command:

sudo apt update && sudo apt install python3-pip -y

Alternatively, you can build from source:

git clone https://github.com/python-telegram-bot/python-telegram-bot

python setup.py install

git submodule update --init --recursive

I think you installed your package in Python2 packages. Try using: pip3 install python-telegram-bot for Python 3 environment.
