Python 无法安装包

问题描述

I'm trying to install a package on Python, but Python is throwing an error on installing packages. I'm getting an error every time I tried to install pip install google-search-api.

Here is the error how can I successfully install it?

error: Microsoft Visual C++ 14.0 or greater is required. Get it with "Microsoft C++ Build Tools": https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/visual-cpp-build-tools/ 

I already updated that and have the latest version of 14.27 but the problem is throwing same error.

解决方案

Go to the link and download this , if you have it then just open it

Once you open it, it might take some other steps but it's obvious and just go with it.

You'll see you might have something like this, just download it or resume.

If updating above doesn't work then you need to configure or make some updates here. You can make some updates here too my clicking "Modify".

Check that and download what you need there or you might found there that you just need to update Microsoft Visual C++ as stated on the error, but I also suggest to update everything there cause you might still need it on your future programs, I think those with the C++ as I've done that before and had a similar problem just like that when installing a python package for creating WorldCloud visualization.

You can also follow this steps here

Select: Workloads → Desktop development with C++, then for Individual Components, select only:

• Windows 10 SDK
• C++ x64/x86 build tools

Can also achieve the same automatically using the following command:

vs_buildtools.exe --norestart --passive --downloadThenInstall --includeRecommended --add Microsoft.VisualStudio.Workload.NativeDesktop --add Microsoft.VisualStudio.Workload.VCTools --add Microsoft.VisualStudio.Workload.MSBuildTools
