Problem Importing Python Twint Module to Jupyter Notebook - ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'twint'

Question

When I try to import the twint package (https://pypi.org/project/twint/) to Jupyter Notebook, I get an error message.

import twint

I've looked at Python "ImportError: No module named twint" on Atom trying to use twint (Python Module), and I know I don't have two versions of python installed.

How do I move forward? I'd like to use this or a similar module, and not the Twitter API.

Thanks!

Answer 1

import nest_asyncio nest_asyncio.apply() type this before importing twint

Answer 2

I had the same problem trying to start using twint this morning.
It seems that twint is only compatible with python 3.6, whereas I was using a more recent version. I downloaded python 3.6, and ran

python3.6 -m pip install twint

in the command line. Seems to work now.
