ImportError: No module named google.cloud

Question

I am unable to import google.cloud.speech

from google.cloud import speech

I have installed it using :

pip install --upgrade google-cloud-speech -t dir-name

It is giving me below error while importing it from dir-name

ImportError: No module named google.cloud

google package with all the sub package is present over there but without __init__.py in every sub packages as well.

How can I import this packages without adding __init__.py in package folder?

PS : I have also tried from __future__ import absolute_import, but its not working.

I also have the same error - creating dedicated virtual environment helped. — Khozzy, Jun 23 '17 at 21:48
`pip install --upgrade google-cloud-speech` and `from __future__ import absolute_import` worked for me. Thanks. — Ryan, Aug 06 '18 at 16:35

The instructions on the "Cloud Speech API Client Libraries" documentation page are now valid and the install is successful, as desired.

I installed the library for Python on my Debian machine using the command:

pip install --upgrade google-cloud-speech

Right answer. You need to tweak the command to install other google-cloud package. For example for me it was `pip install google-cloud-storage` – Astariul Jun 17 '20 at 08:03

I used sudo python -m pip install google-cloud instead and it worked.

"No module named google.cloud" you need a python environment for google cloud.

pip install virtualenv
virtualenv <your-env>
source <your-env>/bin/activate
<your-env>/bin/pip install <google-cloud>

<google-cloud> replace this with required library. e.g: google-cloud-vision or google-cloud-storage, etc

<your-env> is a folder name, which is going to be store all python environment related things inside your project.

After many hours with the same problem, I discovered the solution: Import the library "get_messages" before importing something from "google.cloud". This worked in Python 3:

from google.api_core.protobuf_helpers import get_messages
from google.cloud import speech

After you install google-api-python-client, you have to specify what exact google cloud product you want to install.

So for pubsub it is:

$pip3 install --upgrade google-cloud-pubsub

I struggled with the same problem recently. 2 things solved it for me:

Installing the following packages

google-api-core==1.22.1 
google-auth==1.20.1
google-cloud-texttospeech==2.2.0
googleapis-common-protos==1.52.0
graphviz==0.13.2
greenlet==0.4.16
grpcio==1.31.0
gTTS==2.1.1
gTTS-token==1.1.3

If this doesn't work, try switching to Python 3.7

I ran into the same problem just recently. My error was caused because I hadn't enabled the Cloud Speech-to-Text API. I was able to do that in cloud console and the error was resolved.

None of the installs mentioned here helped me. Then I did the following and it worked:

This problem disappeared for me when I used a virtual env. My fix looks like this:

-#!/usr/bin/python3
+#!/usr/bin/env python3

FYI I'm using Python 3.8.3 on a MacBook. I didn't see this error with the same code on Ubuntu.
