Getting this error: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘crypto.PublicKey’ even after installing crypto

Question

I downloaded PyCharm today and installed Crypto, but it says that it's missing, I tried almost all the solutions here.

I'm using a Mac and I should be using pip3 to install any package.

Also, take a look at this screenshot, the screenshot shows the result when I search for crypto. Maybe this could be the problem:

Here is my code:

from firebase import firebase

firebase = firebase.FirebaseApplication("https://smallworld-89f21.firebaseio.com/")
data = {
    "Name" : "Abdullah",
    "Age" : 20
}

result = firebase.post("smallworld-89f21/hellYeah", data)
print(result)

This is the error I'm getting:

1) What is the actual import code you're using? 2) What is that a screenshot _of_? Please [edit] your question to include a little more detail — G. Anderson, Nov 04 '19 at 20:36
@G.Anderson I have edited the question, hope it's clear now :) — Abdullah Ajmal, Nov 04 '19 at 20:42
Try `from Crypto.PublicKey import RSA`. Python imports are case-sensitive, and the docs suggest it's capitalized. — Mihai Chelaru, Nov 04 '19 at 20:49
Ensure that you've installed the library in the same interpreter you're using in PyCharm. How is your Python interpreter configured? It's possible you've installed it into a different Python installation. You've not showed how you installed the package and how you set up PyCharm. — Mihai Chelaru, Nov 04 '19 at 21:24
I downloaded the crypto from PyCharm itself, I’m sure that it has not been installed into a different python version — Abdullah Ajmal, Nov 04 '19 at 21:27

cannot import name 'PublicKey' from 'crypto' (/Users/ajmal/PycharmProjects/Main/venv/lib/python3.8/site-packages/crypto/__init__.py) – Abdullah Ajmal Nov 05 '19 at 05:01
the module Crypto is there but PublicKey isn’t there, is there any way to download PublicKey? – Abdullah Ajmal Nov 05 '19 at 05:06
I installed it,and it seems like, it's a app, go to crypto's file, you may see ```app.py```, try to run it – okie Nov 05 '19 at 05:07
It seems like it will use with a command prompt which inputs what it need for work, but it's working weird tho. – okie Nov 05 '19 at 05:16
There was an error in app.py, it was a spelling mistake, it should Crypto not crypto, but it still hasn’t fixed the error, it’s just that the PublicKey is missing – Abdullah Ajmal Nov 05 '19 at 08:16
you need to change the file name into Crypto. – okie Nov 05 '19 at 09:04
look into [it](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/31485110/no-module-named-crypto-cipher/31485157), maybe this will help you. – okie Nov 05 '19 at 09:05
and also you may try install ```pycrypto``` – okie Nov 05 '19 at 09:07
I commented out the from Crypto... line and now it works, is it okay if I just leave it at that? Or...? – Abdullah Ajmal Nov 05 '19 at 09:08
Tried installing pycrypto too, no luck – Abdullah Ajmal Nov 05 '19 at 09:08
I don't think that will last long... You could change file name to match the package – okie Nov 05 '19 at 09:10

Let me try to help you. The correct package to install is pycrypto. And I think you didn't install it through pip that is why it is giving error.

pip install pycrypto

Hey, some of the answers in some other question said the same thing, but it didn’t work for me – Abdullah Ajmal Nov 05 '19 at 06:33
How did you install crypto? – Adam Strauss Nov 05 '19 at 06:42
I first installed from the terminal but I got the same error, and the. I downloaded PyCharm and installed it from there and I still got the same error – Abdullah Ajmal Nov 05 '19 at 06:57
if you are using python3 try pip3 install pycrypto – Adam Strauss Nov 05 '19 at 07:03
Tried that too, I’m still getting that error, it’s just that the PublicKey is missing, anyway I could download that? – Abdullah Ajmal Nov 05 '19 at 08:10
