So I'm new in pythoneverywhere. I was trying to install a custom python module (dryscrape) for myself but failed. I did not load it into my file system in pythonanywhere. I use python 2.6 So, what's wrong/missing:
~ $ pip2.6 install --igorsavinkin dryscrape
Usage:
pip install [options] <requirement specifier> [package-index-options] ...
pip install [options] -r <requirements file> [package-index-options] ...
pip install [options] [-e] <vcs project url> ...
pip install [options] [-e] <local project path> ...
pip install [options] <archive url/path> ...
no such option: --igorsavinkin
~ $ pip2.6 install dryscrape

Should i download it to file system first?
Note that dryscrape is written for Python 2.7+ I successfully installed dryscrape in pythonanywhere:
git clone https://github.com/niklasb/dryscrape.git dryscrape
cd dryscrape
#try this in virtualenv
virtualenv env
source env/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
Then install dryscrape
python setup.py install
