No module named pathlib2

I've been working on getting Google Assistant working on my Raspberry Pi 3. It is working but I'm having problems getting this specific step to work: https://developers.google.com/assistant/sdk/guides/library/python/extend/handle-device-commands

This step covers sending an on/off command to the Pi to turn a LED bulb on or off. I have confirmed the Bread board and LED is setup correctly because I can turn the LED on or off via a python script.

However, after following the steps in that page and trying to run the following command "python hotword.py --device_model_id my-model" (which is actually: python hotword.py --device_model_id assistantraspi-1d671-pigooglev2-8n98u3) I get the following error: ImportError: No module named pathlib2

I am including a copy of that file (hotword.py)

Have you tried installing pathlib2 with pip or pip3? Please try

pip install pathlib2

if you're using Python2, and

pip3 install pathlib2

if you're using Python3. However, If pip is not found, then try installing it with

apt-get install python-pip python3-pip

This seemed to fix it: sudo apt-get install python-psutilPatsy

Thanks for the suggestions. Turns out the solution was pretty simple.

The solution is two fold: 1: I have to run the following command first:

source env/bin/activate

Then I could run the python script without getting an error

(env) pi@raspberrypi:~/assistant-sdk-python/google-assistant-sdk/googlesamples/assistant/library $ python hotword.py --device_model_id assistantraspi-1d671-pigooglev2-8n98u3

As I progressed through the articles, the source becomes deactivated per se and returns to a normal prompt with first starting with (env).
Trying to run the python script without first loading the source command was the problem.

I still haven't wrapped my head around how this all works but I'll keep plugging along and hopefully understand what running this command first does

source env/bin/activate

The source env/bin/activate is activating a virtual environment where pathlib2 is installed. pathlib2 is not installed in your default environment, but is in the virtual environment, which is why you're seeing this problem. Before and after running the source command, try calling python and when in python try running import pathlib2.Grazynagreabe

This is the command that the script uses.

sudo apt-get install python-psutil

Make sure that you are working inside the virtual environment.

If not enter into the virtual environment and give a try.

If you are still having trouble execute the following command inside the virtual environment and try again:

sudo pip3 install pathlib2

This worked for me

Why do you need to use sudo?Anonym
