Install module without "pip" - hjk6734 - Apr-09-2020
I need to use "openpyxl" module but I can't install it with "pip" (not available on the system). So far I downloaded and placed "openpyxl" in the same directory where I run my python script where I added this line:
from .openpyxl import Workbook
but when I run my python script I get error: "ValueError: Attempted relative import in non-package".
I tried different things but didn't come to a solution...any help?

You can perhaps use the old way to install packages
- download the source tree
- open a terminal (or Cmd window or something similar)
- change current directory to the package's directory containing the 'setup.py' file
- run the command
python setup.py installor perhapspython setup.py install --user

install pip.
without pip you will go through nightmare every time you try to install packages.
You can install from source - run the setup.py directly, but you will need to install dependencies in advance.
So, again, use pip
