Why ImportError: No module named lightgbm
For Windows users, VC runtime <https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=746572>
is needed if Visual Studio (2015 or 2017) is not installed.
Install wheel <http://pythonwheels.com>
via pip install wheel
first. After that download the wheel file and install from it:
pip install lightgbm
conda install -c conda-forge lightgbm
solved the problem for me
you need just run in a notebook cell before importing
Besides running those linux command lines. I also need to go to /python-package
then run 'python setup.py install'.
I had the same problem, and solved running the installation directly on the notebook
!pip install lightgbm
