ImportError: No module named django_filters
My pip version was old, really old. 1.5.6 When I installed my virtual environment it just worked, so I didn't question. Lesson learned! Here is what I did in case it helps someone else...
In the virtual environment, I installed pip as described in the docs:https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installing.htmlpython get-pip.py
This upgraded me to pip 6.1.1
pip install django-filterpip freeze > requirements.txt
Reading requirements.txt showed I had
django-filter==0.9.2django-filters==0.1.0
So I uninstalled the older version with pip uninstall django-filters
notice the s on the older version but not on the new one
Really basic stuff but it really tripped me up. Thanks to anyone who took time to look into this!
I also had the same issue. Even after installing django-filters
I couldn't import it
ImportError: No module named django_filters
The Django version I'm using is 1.8 and python version is 2.7.x
Solution is to install djangorestframework-filters
pip install djangorestframework-filters
The names are very confusing.
However django-rest-framework-filters
is an extension to Django REST framework and Django filter that makes it easy to filter across relationships while Django-filter
is a reusable Django application allowing users to declaratively add dynamic QuerySet filtering from URL parameters.
I also encountered this issue installing django-filter==2.2.0
This was my Django version:
Django [required: >=1.11, installed: 2.2]
settings.py:
INSTALLED_APPS = [ # ... 'django_filters',]
I mistakenly installed with:
pipenv install django_filters
This is the correct installation:
pipenv install django-filter
Hope it helps.
