No Module named Slugify in Odoo 12

Question

I came across a module from GitHub and I went through the steps to install, but I am getting this error:

Unable to install module because an external dependency is not met: No module named slugify

However, Slugify is installed:

Requirement already satisfied: python-slugify in c:\program files (x86)\python37-32\lib\site-packages (from -r requirements.txt (line 1)) (3.0.3)
Requirement already satisfied: text-unidecode==1.2 in c:\program files (x86)\python37-32\lib\site-packages (from python-slugify->-r requirements.txt (line 1)) (1.2)

I am using the following parameters for testing:

OS: Windows 10 Pro 64 Bit
Odoo 12.0-20181022 (Community Edition)

Can anyone please advise me where I failed?

Thanks in advance for your help.

are you using source code, or executable ? – Charif DZ Sep 05 '19 at 11:37 — Charif DZ, Sep 05 '19 at 11:37
Slugify was installed via 'pip3 install python-slugify' – Elite Solutions Sep 05 '19 at 12:30 — Elite Solutions, Sep 05 '19 at 12:30
I mean Odoo, how do you run it – Charif DZ Sep 05 '19 at 12:39 — Charif DZ, Sep 05 '19 at 12:39

Open the same python virtual environment that Odoo uses and run:

try:
    import slugify
except ModuleNotFoundError:
    import sys
    print("Module not found under the following directories: %s"%sys.path)

You are right. the error was that I installed slugify for another python environment. Now it's working fine. Many Thanks. – Elite Solutions Sep 06 '19 at 04:38
