How can I install a tweepy package via pip?

Question

Can't get pip to work; trying to install Tweepy per this article.

This thread managed to solve it for someone installing a different package, but I've tried all the strategies listed there including changing PATH in my environment variables, and I get "syntax error" for each of these three attempts:

pip install tweepy

python -m pip install tweepy

C:\Python27\Scripts\pip.exe install tweepy

Answer 1

Are you using pip install command inside of the python prompt? If yes then you need to type it directly into command prompt.Open command prompt and type.

pip install tweepy

Answer 2

Just try adding sudo before the command, should look like this sudo pip install tweepy
