I am facing issues while installing request module (python 2.7) on windows.
Tried the below steps as per documentation:
1
pip install requests
error
'pip' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
2
easy_install requests
error
'easy_install' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
3
setup.py
error

or: setup.py --help [cmd1 cmd2 ...]
or: setup.py --help-commands
or: setup.py cmd --help

Can anyone please advise how to install the module on windows , without downloading any new stuff.

installation
If you want to install requests directly you can use the "-m" (module) option available to python.
python.exe -m pip install requests
You can do this directly in PowerShell, though you may need to use the full python path (eg. C:\Python27\python.exe
) instead of just python.exe
.
As mentioned in the comments, if you have added Python to your path you can simply do:
python -m pip install requests
