I am trying to install the ChartDirector module for python. I downloaded, expanded it and put it in /Users/MyName/anaconda/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ChartDirector along with all the other modules I use.
However when I try and call the module I get the following error:
File "Zones.py", line 1, in <module>
from pychartdir import *
ImportError: No module named pychartdir
I have changed my Python Path to include the exact name of the module:
import sys
sys.path.append("/Users/paulbaranowski/anaconda/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ChartDirector")
print(sys.path)
But I am still getting the same error. Do you have any advice as to how to get this to work?
The ChartDirector for Python library is in the "ChartDirector/lib" subdirectory. You would need to copy everything in "ChartDirector/lib" to the Python module directory. Try something like:
cp -r ChartDirector/lib /Users/paulbaranowski/anaconda/lib/python2.7/site-packages
Another method is to simply copy everything in "ChartDirector/lib" to the directory that contains your "Zones.py" script.
