Ubuntu - How to install a Python module (BeautifulSoup) on Python 3.3 instead of Python 2.7?

Question

I have this code (as written in BS4 documentaion):

  from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

When I run the script (using python3) I get the error:

Answer 1

Use pip3

sudo pip3 install BeautifulSoup4

If you cannot run pip3 install it with the following:

sudo apt-get install python3-setuptools
sudo easy_install3 pip 


xxx@Ubuntu14:~/Desktop$ sudo pip3 install BeautifulSoup4
[sudo] password for xxx:
