Unable to import barcode about python-barcode HOT 13 CLOSED

for me this was due to a name clash with this module.
Solution:

pip uninstall barcode
pip install python-barcode

from python-barcode.

I've no idea why that works for you or how your setup is laid out, but happy it works for you. I suspect you either have two pythons, or two different environment configurations somewhere.

Glad you figured it out.

this are not working. please help me

from python-barcode.

No idea what to say here. I haven't used any of the tools you mention, but it would seem they're using a different python.

I expect that you'll get this error for any library you install, right?

from python-barcode.

Can you do the following:

• On you editor, run this code and what does it output? import sys; sys.path
• On the same console you ran pip install, what does this output? python -c "import sys; print(sys.path)" And this? pip --version?

This should help figure out if they're using different pythons.

I got same problem.

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'barcode.writer'; 'barcode' is not a package

But it's working fine only on this folder: C:\Program Files\Python38\Lib\site-packages\tests
Can you help me fix this problem.

Folder: C:\Program Files\Python38\Lib\site-packages\barcode

pip 20.2b1 from c:\program files\python38\lib\site-packages\pip-20.2b1-py3.8.egg\pip (python 3.8)

I've no idea how Python works on windows, but it seems that when you ran print(sys.path), the list of directories where python searches for packages had an extra entry (the first one) compared to when you did python -c "import sys; print(sys.path)".

This indicates that the environment for both runs is different.

How did you run python when you ran print(sys.path)? Via an IDE? Is this where importing barcode does work?

I found a solution: copy Tests folder from here : C:\Program Files\Python38\Lib\site-packages\tests
And create new file .py on this folder: Barcode is working fine.

for me this was due to a name clash with this module. Solution:

pip uninstall barcode
pip install python-barcode

This worked miracles for me, thanks!

Intellij automatically installed the shorter named library for me. This fix worked for me as well.

Odd. The barcode package had been abandoned for years, hence this fork. Looks like there's a new package published under that name now.

this is absolutely working and hopefully it will resolve your issue
pip uninstall barcode
pip install python-barcode
