[SOLVED] How to import shapefile

I have installed the pyshp package in my command prompt

pip install pyshp

and it's successful ("Requirement already satisfied").

But I'm having problems importing shapefile into Jupyter Notebook with

import shapefile as sh

this gives the error: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'shapefile'

What am I missing?

With Conda magic

As suggested by @Wayne, you can use a built-in ipython magic command:

%pip install pyshp
import shapefile as sh

The old way

In your Jupyter notebook, write:

import sys
!{sys.executable} -m pip install pyshp
import shapefile as sh

Installing a package locally and installing it into your Jupyter kernel are two different things.
