Pkg.jl: Pkg.add not working

Created on 12 Aug 2018 · 8Comments · Source: JuliaLang/Pkg.jl

Hi, I am using Ubuntu Linux 18.04.1 LTS. I just installed Julia version 1.0.0 and was trying to install the IJulia package to use Julia in a Jupyter Notebook environment. This resulted in the following error:

Pkg.add("IJulia")
ERROR: UndefVarError: Pkg not defined
Stacktrace:
[1] top-level scope at none:0

The same error occurred when I tried to add the Atom package. Not sure what to do from here

You need import Pkg first. Or use the repl mode with ] and then add IJulia.

I am trying to build Julia 1.0.0 in Docker on Raspberry pi, and have the same error.
Unfortunately Import Pkg does not help in my case. I also was unable to install any package or IJulia specifically in REPL 1.0.0. Previous version 0.6.2 worked perfectly.

Here's a list of typical errors I've got:

Unfortunately import Pkg does not help in my case.

You didn't do this in any of your examples though. You need e.g. julia -e 'import Pkg; Pkg.add("IJulia")'

Wow, silly me, it worked. Thank you!

movalex on 5 Sep 2018

Use

using Pkg
Pkg.add("IJulia")
