Absolute path in code

[seventer]

There is an absolute path in the code which makes the plugin not working if SIP is installed at another location.

sip_plugins/flow/flow.py

Line 7 in 0eef03e

sys.path.insert(0, '/home/pi/SIP/plugins/flowhelpers')

Changed to:
sys.path.insert(0, './plugins/flowhelpers')
Tested with sip installed in /opt and it works now.

Also tested and can confirm it's working fine.
Hopefully the original author (@IMHarris ) will update his own source as well.

Thanks @seventer for the fix. I'll update my code as well. Were you able to get the full system to work?

[seventer]

@IMHarris I have no flow sensor yet so I've tested with a Arduino Pro Mini, powered en connected from/to the RasPi with a rotary switch as a (manual) flow sensor. It is doing something. While rotating I see milions of liters flowing :-)
Not sure what else the plugin is doing. @Dan-in-CA also want to discuss the functionality of this plugin. Maybe it is better to open a discussion on the SIP forum then.

Either the SIP forum or the Discussions sections here on GitHub. Which ever you prefer.

Glad to hear the plugin is showing signs of life for you. Looking forward to discussing further.
