google cloud speech ImportError: cannot import name 'enums'

I got the error when using google-cloud-speech api for my project. I'm NOT using pipenv for virtual environment. I installed google-cloud-speech api with

pip3 install google-cloud-speech

and

pip3 update google-cloud-speech

environment win10 python3.6.8

google-api-core 1.14.2

google-auth 1.6.3

google-cloud 0.34.0

google-cloud-core 1.0.3

google-cloud-speech 1.2.0

google-cloud-storage 1.18.0

google-resumable-media 0.3.3

googleapis-common-protos 1.6.0

grpc-google-cloud-speech-v1beta1 1.0.1

enum34 1.1.6 enums 0.0.2

the error contents

from google.cloud.speech import enums
ImportError: cannot import name 'enums'

I already tried the pip command follow.

pip3 install enums
pip3 install enum34

pip3 install google-cloud-speech 
pip3 upgrade google-cloud-speech

here the code when the code did in google cloud shell of GCP, the following code works well and I didn't get the error.

# !/usr/bin/env python
# coding: utf-8
import argparse
import io
import sys
import codecs
import datetime
import locale
from google.cloud import storage

from google.cloud import speech_v1 as speech
from google.cloud.speech_v1 import enums
from google.cloud.speech_v1 import types

from google.cloud import speech
from google.cloud.speech import enums
from google.cloud.speech import types


def transcribe_gcs(gcs_uri):
    from google.cloud import speech
    from google.cloud.speech import enums
    from google.cloud.speech import types
    client = speech.SpeechClient()

    audio = types.RecognitionAudio(uri=gcs_uri)
    config = types.RecognitionConfig(
        encoding=enums.RecognitionConfig.AudioEncoding.FLAC, # wavsetting
        sample_rate_hertz=44100, # hertz must be fix raw files
        language_code='ja-JP') #for japanese language

    operation = client.long_running_recognize(config, audio)

    print('Waiting for operation to complete...')
    operationResult = operation.result()

    d = datetime.datetime.today()
    today = d.strftime("%Y%m%d-%H%M%S")
    fout = codecs.open('output{}.txt'.format(today), 'a', 'utf-8')

    for result in operationResult.results:
      for alternative in result.alternatives:
          fout.write(u'{}\n'.format(alternative.transcript))
          print('alternative.transcript===',format(alternative.transcript))
    fout.close()

    print('alternative.transcript===',format(alternative.transcript))
    print('operationResult===',operationResult)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(
        description=__doc__,
        formatter_class=argparse.RawDescriptionHelpFormatter)
    parser.add_argument(
        'path', help='GCS path for audio file to be recognized')
    args = parser.parse_args()
    transcribe_gcs(args.path)

Thanks in advance.

By using pip install google.cloud.speech, you are getting the latest version, currently V2.

In V2, enums and types have been removed and are no longer needed.
