# Loading packages
2021-01-03 12:00:31 +00:00
Only the Python standard library is available after importing Pyodide.
To use other packages, youll need to load them using either:
- {any}`pyodide.loadPackage` for packages built with Pyodide, or
- {any}`micropip.install` for pure Python packages with wheels available on PyPi or
from other URLs.
```{note}
{mod}`micropip` can also be used to load packages built in Pyodide (in
which case it relies on {any}`pyodide.loadPackage`).
```
If you use {any}`pyodide.loadPackagesFromImports` Pyodide will automatically
download all packages that the code snippet imports. This is particularly useful
for making a repl since users might import unexpected packages. At present,
{any}`loadPackagesFromImports <pyodide.loadPackagesFromImports>` will not
download packages from PyPi, it will only download packages included in the
Pyodide distribution.
## Loading packages with {any}`pyodide.loadPackage`
Packages included in the official Pyodide repository can be loaded using
{any}`pyodide.loadPackage`:
```js
pyodide.loadPackage("numpy");
```
It is also possible to load packages from custom URLs:
```js
pyodide.loadPackage("https://foo/bar/numpy.js");
```
The file name in the URL must be `<package-name>.js` and there must be an
accompanying file called `<package-name>.data` in the same directory.
When you request a package from the official repository, all of that package's
dependencies are also loaded. Dependency resolution is not yet implemented when
loading packages from custom URLs.
In general, loading a package twice is not permitted. However, one can override
a dependency by loading a custom URL with the same package name before loading
the dependent package.
Multiple packages can also be loaded at the same time by passing a list to `loadPackage.
```js
pyodide.loadPackage(["cycler", "pytz"]);
```
{any}`pyodide.loadPackage` returns a `Promise` which resolves when all of the
packages are finished loading:
```javascript
let pyodide;
async function main() {
pyodide = await loadPyodide({ indexURL: "<some-url>" });
await pyodide.loadPackage("matplotlib");
// matplotlib is now available
}
main();
```

## Micropip
### Installing packages from PyPI
Pyodide supports installing pure Python wheels from PyPI with {mod}`micropip`.
{func}`micropip.install` returns a Python
[Future](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-future.html) so you can await
the future or otherwise use the Python future API to do work once the packages
have finished loading:
```pyodide
pyodide.runPythonAsync(`
import micropip
await micropip.install('snowballstemmer')
import snowballstemmer
stemmer = snowballstemmer.stemmer('english')
print(stemmer.stemWords('go goes going gone'.split()))
`);
```

Micropip implements file integrity validation by checking the hash of the
downloaded wheel against pre-recorded hash digests from the PyPi JSON API.

### Installing wheels from arbitrary URLs
2020-05-11 08:06:33 +00:00
Pure Python wheels can also be installed from any URL with {mod}`micropip`,
2020-05-11 08:06:33 +00:00
```py
import micropip
micropip.install(
'https://example.com/files/snowballstemmer-2.0.0-py2.py3-none-any.whl'
)
```
Micropip decides whether a file is a URL based on whether it ends in ".whl" or not.
2020-05-11 08:06:33 +00:00
The wheel name in the URL must follow [PEP 427 naming
convention](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0427/#file-format), which will
be the case if the wheels is made using standard Python tools (`pip wheel`,
2020-05-11 08:06:33 +00:00
`setup.py bdist_wheel`).
All required dependencies must have been previously installed with {mod}`micropip`
or {any}`pyodide.loadPackage`.
2020-05-11 08:38:27 +00:00
If the file is on a remote server, the server must set Cross-Origin Resource Sharing
(CORS) headers to allow access. Otherwise, you can prepend a CORS proxy to the
URL. Note however that using third-party CORS proxies has security implications,
particularly since we are not able to check the file integrity, unlike with
installs from PyPi.
