Installing python packages in nitrousio


I've just started trying to use Nitrous.io. I've made a box with python, and am trying to use pip to install a python package called praw.

It downloads all of the information fine, but on running the install script, I get an error stating that it could not create a file due to permission restrictions in the /usr directory. Is there any way to get around this as I need the package for my application to work properly.


Solution

  • You could try pip install --user praw
