Remove ImportError of Module for Sublime Text

Gists

When I launched Sublime Text, I noticed that the error occurred. The error is as follows.

ImportError: No module named 'yaml'

I confirmed that this error occurs when the plugin of Material Theme is read. And the error started to occur after Material Theme was updated, recently.

In this report, I would like to introduce the method for removing this error. The flow is as follows.

  1. Download a file including library for yaml (PyYAML) from https://pypi.python.org/pypi/PyYAML
    • In my environment, I downloaded PyYAML-3.12.win-amd64-py3.5.exe.
  2. Unzip the downloaded file.
    • You can see a directory of yaml.
  3. Add the directory of yaml to python3.3.zip.
    • python3.3.zip is in the directory which installed Sublime Text.

By above flow, the error can be removed. If the error of ImportError occurs for other modules, you can try to do this method. I think that although my Sublime Text is Sublime Text3 build 3143 x64, this method may be able to be used for Sublime Text2.

Environment

  • OS Windows10 Home x64
  • Sublime Text3 build 3143 x64
  • Material Theme v4.1.4

If this information was useful for you, I’m glad.
