diary.py runs when I type in the terminal
Briennas-MacBook:Programming Brienna$ python diary.py
Briennas-MacBook:Programming Brienna$
but not when I type in
Briennas-MacBook:Programming Brienna$ python3 diary.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "diary.py", line 8, in <module>
from peewee import *
ImportError: No module named 'peewee'
Does this mean I need to re-install peewee...? Does it not work with python3 or something?

Treehouse Guest TeacherIf you have python3, you probably have pip3, too. Install Peewee with that and try it again.

I followed the instructions on the site I link below to install and run with git.
http://docs.peewee-orm.com/en/latest/peewee/installation.html
These are the commands:
git clone https://github.com/coleifer/peewee.git cd peewee python3 setup.py install

5,155 PointsYes, I installed peewee. It works with python 2 but not python 3. I would like to know why.

11,710 PointsI'm running into this same issue using python 3 and I used pip3 to install peewee. I've been searching for the solution and I think it may have something to do with the directory that pip3 is saving to, but I have no idea how to redirect it.
t19clar ~ $ pip3 install peewee Requirement already satisfied (use --upgrade to upgrade): peewee in /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.4/lib/python3.4/site-package
Kenneth Love
Treehouse Guest TeacherDid you try following the instructions pip3 gave you? In other words, did you do pip3 install --upgrade peewee?

ARTISANVs-MacBook-Pro:lib artisanv$ pip3 install peeweepip3 install peewee Collecting peeweepip3 Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement peeweepip3 (from versions: ) No matching distribution found for peeweepip3 You are using pip version 8.0.2, however version 8.1.2 is available. You should consider upgrading via the 'pip install --upgrade pip' command. ARTISANVs-MacBook-Pro:lib artisanv$ pip install --upgrade pip Requirement already up-to-date: pip in ./python2.7/site-packages ARTISANVs-MacBook-Pro:lib artisanv$

Treehouse Guest TeacherYou'll have better luck withpip3 install peewee. Not sure where you got the extra pip3 from.

Treehouse ModeratorI don't know if anyone else is still having issues with this, but I also got the "No module named 'peewee' error.
When I try pip3 install peewee I get:
PS C:\Users\melsr\Documents\Python_TechDegree> pip3 install peewee
Requirement already satisfied: peewee in c:\users\melsr\appdata\local\packages\pythonsoftwarefoundation.python.3.7_qbz5n2kfra8p0\localcache\local-packages\python37\site-packages (3.13.3)
So it is definitely installed, but it is not being recognized when I try to run my code. I am using VS Code if that makes any difference ¯(°_o)/¯
