I'm writing a standalone python script, and I need to use Qgis module. For information i'm working on a Mac and I already have Qgis 2.18 installed. So in list of module importation, I wrote this :

import qgis

But when I run my script, it returns me :

No module named 'qgis'

I search where it comes from, and apparently, it's because I have many python versions installed. And I dont use the one who is connected to Qgis.

I check my python install with this command which -a python python3and it returns :

/opt/local/bin/python
/usr/bin/python
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.6/bin/python3
/usr/local/bin/python3

According to python --version I'm using Python 3.4.7

Somebody can help me to use the good one ?

QGIS 2.18 uses python 2.7.

QGIS 3 will use python 3.

  • I used python --version to know my current version. It is Python 3.4.7. So i have to change current version to 2.7 and it will be ok ? How can I do that ?
