import error; no module named Quandl

Question

I am am trying to run the Quandl module on a virtualenv which I have uninstalled packages only pandas and then Quandl,

I am running Python 2.7.10 - I have uninstalled all other python versions, but its still giving me the issue of 'ImportError: No module named Quandl'. Do you know what might be wrong? Thanks

Answer 1

Try with lower case, import is case sensitive and it's as below:

import quandl

Did you install with pip? If so ensure quandl is among the listed installed modules with

pip list

Otherwise try

help('modules')

To make sure it was installed properly. If you don't see quandl listed , try to reinstall.

Answer 2

Use below syntax all in lower case

import quandl

Answer 3

If the solutions above is not working for you (it means you are using python 3), do the following (on Linux);

sudo apt install python3-pip

Then do ;

pip3 install quandl

you should be able tto i,port and use quandl now

Answer 4

I am following a Youtube tutorial where they use 'Quandl'. It should be quandl. Change it and it won't throw error.

Answer 5

I'm having a related issue with the capitalisation of "Q" in Pycharm IDE (Quandl 3.0.1):

import quandl as q

The above will correctly import however auto-completion will not function.

import Quandl as q

The above will not import but will allow auto-completion.

My solution is to use autocomplete when working and then comment out the second import for running.

import quandl as q
#import Quandl as q

Answer 6

Solved the issue by installing the below one:

conda install -c dhirschfeld quandl=3.0.1

Answer 7

1. install quandl for version 3.1.0
2. Check package path where you installed, make sure it's name is quandl not Quandl (my previous name is Quandl, so when I use import quandl, it always said "no module named quandl")
3. If your package's name is Quandl, delete it and reinstall it. (I use anaconda to install my package, it's covenient!)

Answer 8

With Anaconda\Jupyter notebook go to the install directory (C:\Users\<USER_NAME>\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda3) where <USER_NAME> is your logged in Username. Then execute in command prompt:

1. python -m pip install Quandl
2. import quandl

Answer 9

If someone running Jupyter image on docker and facing the same issue, you can open terminal in Jupyter

and then type

pip install quandl

it will install the quandl where jupyter kernelspec list points. then import as

import quandl  

(q lowercase)

I did not find this solution anywhere else hence mentioned this

Answer 10

Finally got to make it work. Installed quandl through Anaconda Powershell Prompt (not the regular Anaconda Prompt). It depreciated some of my libraries, but finally it is working! Spent 1.5 days to fix this!! Thanks. Original post: Quandl not working in Jupyter Notebook (but working at command-prompt)

Answer 11

Sometimes the quandl module is present with "Quandl" in following location C:\Program Files (x86)\Anaconda\lib\site-packages\Quandl.

But the scripts from Quandl refer to quandl in import statements. So, renaming folder Quandl to quandl worked for me.

New path: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Anaconda\lib\site-packages**quandl**".
