Unable to import owlready in Python

Question

I am trying to use the owlready library in Python. I downloaded the file from link(https://pypi.python.org/pypi/Owlready) but when I am importing owlready I am getting following error:

>>> from owlready import *
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named 'owlready'

I tried running:

pip install owlready

I am get the error:

error: could not create '/usr/local/lib/python3.4/dist-packages/owlready': Permission denied

Do you have `pip` installed in your box ? If yes and you're running a Gnu/Linux os, `sudo pip install Owlready`. And everything will be okay. — Chiheb Nexus, Mar 09 '17 at 13:34

Try installing it using pip instead.

Run the command pip install <module name here> to do so. If you are using python3, run pip3 install <module name here>.

If neither of these work you may also try:

python -m pip install <module name here>

or

python3 -m pip install <module name here>

If you don't yet have pip, you should probably get it. Very commonly used python package manager. Here are some details on how to set the tool up.
