I did this:
sudo pip install azure azure-storage azure-servicebus azure-mgmt azure-servicemanagement-legacy from azure import * Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in ImportError: No module named azure
from azure.storage import BlobService Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in ImportError: No module named azure.storage
Python package installed thru cmd sudo pip install exists at the paths /usr/lib/python2.7, /usr/local/python2.7, etc and their sub-folder dist-packages.
You can code import sys and print sys.path in the Python Interpreter to show the completed path list for current python environment.
Iif you installed successfully some packages like azure & azure-storage, you can find these files relate to the package in the python library paths.
However, you got the error in Import Error: No module named <package-name> when you run the code import <package-name> or from <package-name> import <class or object name>. There are two scenes that would be cause the issue normally.
sys.path in python or PYTHONHOME in environment variables.So I think you can try to solve the issue thru three ways below.
sys.path thru the method sys.path.append('<package path>') in python code.PYTHONHOME whether or not set up. If set up PYTHONHOME, python will add package path based on PYTHONHOME into sys.path.sudo apt-get remove python python-pip, sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get install python python-pip on Ubuntu. It's a simple way.
BlobService belongs to azure.storage.blob rather than the azure.storage
it should rather be
from azure.storage.blob import BlobService Link - https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/storage-python-how-to-use-blob-storage/
If it still doesn't work for you, you might would like to use virtualEnv and do the pip install again while in virtualenv
I had very similar issue. There was a lot of confusion between python2 and python3 package versions as there was no virtual env used and I also had to ungrade pip to 18.
But anyway, this is is how I resolved the part in question.
Locate where the package was installed:
pip show azure The output will show the location of the package in the Location section:
Name: azure Version: 4.0.0 Summary: Microsoft Azure Client Libraries for Python Home-page: https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-python Author: Microsoft Corporation Author-email: [email protected] License: MIT License Location: /usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages Requires: azure-servicefabric, azure-cosmosdb-table, azure-datalake-store, azure-loganalytics, azure-eventgrid, azure-servicemanagement-legacy, azure-servicebus, azure-graphrbac, azure-storage-blob, azure-mgmt, azure-storage-file, azure-batch, azure-applicationinsights, azure-keyvault, azure-storage-queue Required-by: If you do:
python -c "import sys;print(sys.path)" You will see a list of pip package locations:
['/app', '/usr/lib/python36.zip', '/usr/lib/python3.6', '/usr/lib/python3.6/lib-dynload', '/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages', '/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages'] At the begining of my python file I added:
sys.path.insert( 0, '/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages' ) This will make sure this package location will be checked in the first place.
UPDATE
Thinking about it in the morning, things opened from a new perspective for me. I saw, that I had #!/usr/bin/python at the beginning of my python file, which says to use the wrong interpreter and look for pip packages in the wrong place.
azure metapackage is deprecated and azure-storage is not being maintained anymore
Please use azure-storage-blob >= 12.0
pip install azure-storage-blob from azure.storage.blob import BlobServiceClient PS: I write SDKs for azure
