Local ModuleNotFoundError

🎈 Using Streamlit

I’m getting an module not found error when running my app locally. I’m trying to import the nba-api module. I don’t get an error when running a script locally but whenever i try to run ‘streamlit run Home.py’ locally i get a module not found error.

Hey @codr,

Have you installed the nba-api package?

Hi @codr

In addition to checking if the package is installed (including it in the requirements.txt file) you can also try including the import statements in all files of the app (the main app and also the py file where the function resides).

Hope this helps
