How to fix "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'ns3'" error after executing the example python in ns3?

I have this error when I execute the python program in ns3:

Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "/home/alyaa/ns-allinone-3.40/ns-3.40/tes1.py", line 1, in <module>
  import ns3
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'ns3'
Command 'python3 tes1.py' returned non-zero exit status 1.

If you execute test.py via the ns3 script, it will inject /home/alyaa/ns-allinone-3.40/ns-3.40/build/bindings/python to the PYTHONPATH environment variable, which allows you to import ns3.

You can manually do this using

export PYTHONPATH=/home/alyaa/ns-allinone-3.40/ns-3.40/build/bindings/python python3 tes1.py

Or you can do like ThanavCh suggested, and install the pip-packaged release (which is out-of-date because I've been waiting for cppyy to fix an issue introduced in version 3).

Have you tried installing the module on your command line?

pip install ns3

Type that into command prompt on Windows / Terminal on Mac
