How to get the Freebase Python libraries to work in IronPython
Question: How do I get the [Python libraries for using the Freebase
API](http://code.google.com/p/freebase-python/) to work under [IronPython
2.0](http://www.codeplex.com/IronPython)?

When I "import freebase.api", I get "ImportError: No module named
django.utils". What gives?


Answer: You're missing the simplejson module. Since easy_install doesn't yet work with
IronPython, your best bet is to grab the latest code using SVN from their
[Google Code project](http://code.google.com/p/simplejson/source/checkout), or
[download a zip file](http://apiguy.com/files/simplejson-2.0.9.zip).

Put all of the files that you obtained into the lib/site-packages/simplejson
folder under your IronPython installation directory.

Now you'll be able to successfully "import freebase.api".
