Hi @xmagnetarai , welcome to the forums! What package are you trying to install?

3

Hi! Any package I try to download I get this issue. I recently tried opencv-python and urlib3

4

Have you tried entering pip install <module name>?

5

@xmagnetarai , you can try poetry add <module name> if that doesn’t work.

6

I did. It was successfully installed using pip but then I get error “missing config.py” whenever I try to import cv2

7

Thank you, I’ll give it a try and get back to you

8

Opencv requires extra configuration, so there should be a special template for that you can use.

9

Thanks. Do you know where I can get the template?

I received this error:

$ poetry add opencv-python

  AttributeError

Since that is an error with urllib3, try this:

And as for the opencv template, you can find it here.

It worked! thank you :sunny: . Regarding the template, I forked it and it worked, but how can I integrate it into my current project?

13

I’d recommend just copy-pasting your current project into your fork of the template if you’re going to use opencv.

14

How can I acheive that? Using git pull?
Do you recommend making the template myself on my own project to save time or it’s a tedious process?

15

If your project is just one file (main.py or something), then just Ctrl+A Ctrl+C and then Ctrl+V into your forked Repl.

16

Probably 11 files. I’ll give it a shot

In that case, I’d recommend downloading your repl as a ZIP, and then uploading the files you need to the new Repl.
You can download your repl as a ZIP by adding .zip to the end of its URL (https://replit.com/@somone/example-repl.zip).

I’m doing that! Thanks a lot for your help. I took a lot of time :pray:
