Docx missing attributes

Question

I'm trying to do anything considering word document using docx library in python. The problem is, whatever I import, I get error message about 'no attribute'. For eample - Document

from docx import Document

gives output

cannot import name Document

and any try to use Document ends with error

AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'Document'

Any syntax seems to be correct. I'm using docx module version 0.2.4 .

Thanks for all help.

Answer 1

I had a similar problem. I had used pip install docx in my virtual environment. The fix was to pip uninstall docx and then pip install python-docx.

Answer 2

from official documentation

python-docx versions 0.3.0 and later are not API-compatible with prior versions.

so, try to update package or use old api
