No module named antlr4

Question

I would like to use ANTLR4 with Python 2.7 and for this I did the following:

1. I installed the package antlr4-4.6-1 on Arch Linux with sudo pacman -S antlr4.

2. I wrote a MyGrammar.g4 file and successfully generated Lexer and Parser Code with antlr4 -Dlanguage=Python2 MyGrammar.g4

3. Now executing for example the generated Lexer code with python2 MyGrammarLexer.py results in the error ImportError: No module named antlr4.

What could to be the problem? FYI: I have both Python2 and Python3 installed - I don't know if that might cause any trouble.

Answer 1

You need to install antlr4 for python through pip:

sudo pip install antlr4-python2-runtime

If you don't have pip on you system, install it first with:

sudo pacman -S python2-pip
