I have just installed pandas_datareader using pip install pandas-datareader which ran successfully.
Now I am trying to use it for a tutorial and I am getting this error when I try to import.
import pandas_datareader as pdr
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pandas_datareader'
This is the link to the tutorial.
Any ideas?

Type into Terminal:
pip install pandas_datareader
That's it
Ok the following steps resolved the "No module named 'pandas_datareader" issue for me. To be clear, my situation was such that I had already installed pandas_datareader via pip install pandas_datareader but the "No module named 'pandas_datareader" error still kept popping up whenever I ran a .py code that imports pandas_datareader.
If you are in the same situation as I was (on Mac), this may help you.
Step 1: Uninstall the pandas_datareader package first:
- via terminal, type
pip uninstall pandas_datareader - it will prompt you asking for a y/n answer to proceed with the uninstallation
- type 'y'
Step 2: Restart your IDE if you were using one
- in my case, I was using MS VSC (Visual Studio Code)
Step 3:: re-install pandas_datareader package
again via terminal, type
pip install pandas_datareaderyour terminal may show you a bunch of "pre-installed" pandas_datareader package with message "Requirement already satisfied..."
ignore those.
Step 4: Run your python code again
- the "No module named 'pandas_datareader" error should be gone this time round.
Hope this helps.
In your Anaconda Prompt, do this : pip install pandas_datareader
All the other methods didn't work for me.
In command prompt:
conda install -c delichon pandas_datareader
This is working fine on 22nd sept 2019 make sure to update pip.
For me, Import pandas_datareader worked from the command prompt while using python but did not work in jupyter.
From inside jupyter in a cell, I ran pip install pandas_datareader
I got a whole host of "Requirement already satisfied" messages
But at the very end, I was given this very important message. Successfully installed pandas-datareader-0.8.1 Note: you may need to restart the kernel to use updated packages In Jupyter notebook.
There is a kernel menu command sitting between cell and widgets. The restart command is in that drop-down menu option. In my case, this restarting of the kernel was the solution to my " No module named 'pandas_datareader' " all along.
Had the same issue. This resolved it for me:
after activating the env, run:
pip install pip --upgrade
pip install pandas-datareader
pip install jupyter (as i was using a jupyter notebook)
However, if you are running anaconda, use:
conda install -c anaconda pandas-datareader
I had the same problem. I tried pip install pandas_datareader in my Anaconda Prompt and the problem was solved. For some reason, it didn't work in command prompt.
Got this error even though I had pandas_datareader installed. Running on Windows. py -3 -m pip install pandas_datareader in the command prompt didn't work. Same in anaconda prompt didn't work. pip uninstall pandas_datareader followed by pip install pandas_datareader and a reboot finally fixed my problem.
TLDR if running on a Windows machine, uninstall pandas_datareader if you have it (pip uninstall pandas_datareader) and then reinstall with 'pip install pandas_datareader'.
You may consider upgrading your pandas with:
pip3 install --upgrade pandas
I had the same issue installing through my terminal. Since I'm using Anaconda Navigator, I tried the CMD.exe Prompt and inputted "conda install -c conda-forge pandas-datareader".
Jupyter notebook now works like a charm.
I was having this same issue in Jupyter Notebook, where it wasnt recognizing pandas_datareader, even though it said that it was installed successfully in anaconda prompt.
I figured out that my jupyter notebook wasnt opening up in my environment. I activated my environment in Anaconda Prompt and then did conda install nb_conda_kernels. When I opened up Jupyter notebook and checked my env, I was in the correct one, and it recognized my pandas_datareader import. You can check your environment using:
import sys
print(sys.prefix)
This is a SO thread that helped me: Conda environments not showing up in Jupyter Notebook
Go to C:\Users\[UserName]\AppData\Roaming\jupyter\kernels\python3 and open up kernel.json. Check the first argument is pointing to a Python 3 environment/the environment you installed pandas_datareader to.
If you are facing this issue in Jupyter Notebook, just restart the kernel within the IDE. -Make sure u have installed pandas_datareader with "pip install pandas_datareader" -Click on the tab named 'kernel' -Click Restart
Your Problem will be resolved
