Bash: kivy: command not found?

[NorwegianClassic]

Hi there!

I'm trying to install Beautiful Soup 4 to use in my kivy app for my rpi 3, but I can quite get it too work.

When I use

Code: Select all

kivy -m pip install bs4

it returns bash: kivy: command not found.
I have tried to set the PYTHONPATH.

I saw that /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/kivy doesn't exist, can this be a part of the problem?

Is kivy installed?

Try

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get -y install python-kivy

Yes I have. I tried the commands you posted just to be sure, and tried $kivy -m pip install bs4, but still no luck.

I can run the demos, so kivy works. But when I run my program that uses bs4, it returns:

Code: Select all

bs4.FeatureNotFound: Couldn't find a tree builder with the features you requested: lxml. Do you need to install a parser library?

[rpdom]

That message looks like you haven't got lxml installed (a quick google confirmed this)

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install python-lxml

Thank you, that solved it! I thought bs4 and lxml did the same thing, so I thought I didn't need it!
