Including httplib2

13,746

As the link you posted to states httplib2 is not a standard library that comes with Python you have to install it first.

To install httplib2 in Python 3 you can use (Ubuntu):

sudo apt-get install python3-httplib2

or pip

pip install httplib2

Then make sure it's on your PYTHONPATH.

Then just include it:

import httplib

    So I was having the usual problem with importing httplib2, I came across this and similar answers. But now I must be bold, and ask a dumb question, how do I include/link the modual into my project?

    I'm on a mac with python3, sorry, but you were partially right. pip didnt work for what ever reason but I followed your link used python setup.py install to install it. But how do I include it in my PYTHONPATH, I'm working in Eclipse so I know right click properties and what not but I'm not sure there httplib2 ends up after the install.
