ModuleNotFoundError: No Module Named openai

import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
import openai 

#write each line of nuclear.txt to a list
with open('nuclear.txt', 'r') as f:
    lines = f.readlines()

#remove the newline character from each line
lines = [line.rstrip() for line in lines]

#gather the text from each website and add it to a new txt file
for line in lines:
    r = requests.get(line)
    soup = BeautifulSoup(r.text, 'html.parser')
    text = soup.get_text()
    with open('nuclear_text.txt', 'a') as f:
        f.write(text)

I'm trying to import openai, however it keeps throwing the error module not found. I have done pip install openai and it downloads, but it appears to be the wrong version of python. How do I select the correct one for pip to install to? I am using VSCode

pip install openai

Oct 2024 - Ubuntu 24 - For me, I was using the virtual environment. But when I was using gunicorn command in venv, it was using gunicorn installed outside of venv.

I had to uninstall the gunicorn with apt remove python3-gunicorn and after that it worked fine.

I had the same issue but I discovered that the package was being installed into a older python version's path. I installed the module by explicitly specifying the python version and that resolved the issue:

!pip3.11 install langchain

instead of

!pip3 install langchain

I had the same issue, when using the embeddings library from openAI. I kept adding the missing modules, and it worked until sklearn. What worked for me was:

pip install scikit-learn

The answer of JialeDu worked for me, but after I added the right path to my pip setting in the Environment Variables from windows

If you’d rather run pip (or other tools) from any location, you’ll need to add the directory in which it’s installed as a PATH environment variable by doing the following:

1 - Open up the Control Panel and navigate to System and Security > System 2 -Click on the Advanced system settings link on the left panel 3 -Click Environment Variables. 4 -Under System Variables, double-click the variable PATH. 5 -Click New, and add the directory where pip is installed, e.g. C:Python33Scripts, and select OK.

Follow the steps below to install the openai package for the current interpreter
  1. run the following code

    import sys
    print(sys.executable)
    
  2. get the current interpreter path

    enter image description here

  3. Copy the path and install openai using the following command in the terminal

    C:\WorkSpace\pytest10\.venv\Scripts\python.exe -m pip install openai
    

    Modify the path in the above command to the interpreter path you got.

Try using pip3 install openai, as it installs openai for python3, not python2 (if you have it installed). If you only have python3, pip and pip3 are basically the same thing (I think).
