ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'google'

Question

Once I am trying to use google search api it's showing me an error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\Maor Ben Lulu\Desktop\Maor\Python\google\google_Bot.py", line 1, in <module>
    from google import google
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'google'

My code :

from google import google
import urllib.request
import time
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

def google_scrape(url):
    thepage = urllib.request.urlopen(url)
    soup = BeautifulSoup(thepage, "html.parser")
#    print(soup.prettify())
    return soup.prettify()
### Rest of the code

I did:

pip install google

But still doesn't work.

I would like to advice you: if you are going to use google data, you have to use their API .. I tried everything before and nothing works or it works but they block your IP after small time, even if you use these informal packages – Blackjack

do you have two python versions installed? and are you sure you did "pip install" using an Administrative CMD window? – Bluebird

What do you get when you run pip list? – Virtues

How many versions of python have you got? Are oyu sure you did pip install on the right version? To check if you have the google module, you can run this command help('modules') To see all availaible modules. – Myotonia

@Virtues google 2.0.1 google-api-python-client 1.7.4 google-auth 1.5.1 google-auth-httplib2 0.0.3 google-cloud 0.34.0 google-search 1.0.2 – Spartan

Did pip install the libraries for the right interpretor? The best way to know is to run print(help('modules')) in your code – Myotonia

Answer 3

My problem was a virtual env and shebang: I used absolute path shebang on Debian 12, like #!/usr/bin/python3, and it ignored active virtualenv.
#!/usr/bin/env python worked, because it uses python from virtualenv, not systemwide.
