Hey I'm having problems installing the dataplotly plugin from the official repository.

Konnte Erweiterung 'DataPlotly' nicht laden 

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'plotly'

I installed plotly without errors and with these commands:

pip install plotly 
pip3 install plotly

Didn't had the problem on my Manjaro-Gnome machine. Guess it depends on some python path (environment variable), but can't find anything.

Can I set the path where QGIS is searching for the python-libs?

  • I'm running Mint 19.3 and QGIS 3.10 and have installed the plugin from the repository without issue... didn't have to install plotly from terminal or anything... working just fine. Not sure why you can't install from the plugins repository - nothing in that error message stands out to me... Feb 27, 2020 at 17:36
  • Interesting. thank you for the comment, cause even on my Manjaro-machine it just started working after I installed plotly by ´pip install plotly´

I'm able to install the Dataplotly plugin on Linux Mint now. I realized that I installed the qgis-flatpack version some time ago.

So I uninstalled the flatpack, installed from the official repos and now it works like a charm.

Lesson learned:
I'll never use flatpack again!
