I'm having trouble importing a Python API from GitHub

Question

I'm trying to use this Python API in my project: https://github.com/Rami114/Stockfighter

I keep getting an ImportError: No module named Stockfighter.Api

My text editor is SublimeText 3, and my code looks like this:

from Stockfighter.Api import StockFighterApi

I also tried import it using sys:

import sys
sys.path.append('/Users/myname/Desktop/PythonGames/Stockfighter-master/Stockfighter')

from Stockfighter.Api import StockFighterApi

I download the api from github in terminal using this code:

$ python3 -m pip install git+https://github.com/Rami114/Stockfighter.git

This is the resulting out from that installation

Collecting git+https://github.com/Rami114/Stockfighter.git Cloning https://github.com/Rami114/Stockfighter.git to /var/folders/cg/2k70brh54y51hm65qh4dhwch0000gn/T/pip-w9ptx96u-build Requirement already satisfied (use --upgrade to upgrade): Stockfighter==0.1 from git+https://github.com/Rami114/Stockfighter.git in /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.5/lib/python3.5/site-packages/Stockfighter-0.1-py3.5.egg Requirement already satisfied (use --upgrade to upgrade): requests in /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.5/lib/python3.5/site-packages/requests-2.9.1-py3.5.egg (from Stockfighter==0.1) Requirement already satisfied (use --upgrade to upgrade): ws4py in /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.5/lib/python3.5/site-packages/ws4py-0.3.4-py3.5.egg (from Stockfighter==0.1)

I'm really new to both python and github, so any help is appreciated. Thank you!

i'm not sure if i'm doing this right, as i've never used a REPL before, but I used this site https://repl.it/ and tried the same import statements as above. I received the same error each time — user3353890, Apr 07 '16 at 00:46
The same error occurred. Should I get SublimeREPL in order to attempt this in the SublimeText Editor? — user3353890, Apr 07 '16 at 00:55
No. Doing it in the normal REPL is enough. And it shows that the module is not installed for that version of Python. — Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams, Apr 07 '16 at 01:06
ok, cool, thanks! Do you have any advice on how I might install the api since the "-m pip install" command doesn't appear to be working? — user3353890, Apr 07 '16 at 01:13
Looking above, you seem to have installed it under 3.x. Have you told your script to use 3.x as well? — Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams, Apr 07 '16 at 01:24
ohhhh, that's a good call. I'll figure out how to make sure it's running on Python3.x and report back. — user3353890, Apr 07 '16 at 01:48
Attempted this code, but it did not work - $alias python=python3 — user3353890, Apr 07 '16 at 01:53
I got it working! Awesome! Thank you so much for walking me through everything, I really appreciate your time and patience :) — user3353890, Apr 07 '16 at 02:03
