ImportError: No module named 'cm'

Installing from PyPi did not work, so I installed from github as the following:

wget https://github.com/matplotlib/cmocean/archive/master.zip
unzip master.zip
pip install --user cmocean-master/

Then, the error message on import:

In [1]: import cmocean
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
ImportError                               Traceback (most recent call last)

Nice work on the documentation, looks great!

Ah, sorry about this trouble. I really thought I had gotten it up on PyPI successfully. I will go through the process again and try to get it right.

But, in the meantime, you should be able to install with the following:

git clone https://github.com/matplotlib/cmocean.git
cd cmocean
pip install .

This is working on PyPI now! For some reason I had to delete the old version I had uploaded because it was being used instead of being hidden. It isn't present there if you search for it, but it seems to be working nonetheless.
