Sometimes Vim's Python binary can't find a package you've installed.

  • in vim
    :py3 import sys; print(sys.path)

  • navigate to that location and find the python binary, in my case:
    cd /usr/local/opt/python@3.8/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.8/bin

  • install isort using this binary
    ./python3.8 -m pip install isort
