Python f5-sdk: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'icontrol'

Question

I was trying https://f5-sdk.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ when this problem occurred.

>>> from f5.bigip import ManagementRoot
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\f5_sdk-3.0.21-py3.6.egg\f5\bigip\__init__.py", line 20, in <module>
    from icontrol.session import iControlRESTSession
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'icontrol'
>>>

>>> import f5.bigip
Traceback (most recent call last):

What was the problem here and how to solve it?

What exactly you were trying? Where did you find the above code? Obviously you're missing a package named `icontrol` — Kostas Charitidis, Oct 17 '19 at 12:38

You'll need to install both of these modules using pip.

pip install f5-sdk
pip install f5-icontrol-rest
