any way launching my python app without sudo ?

[agaricus-campestris]

Hi,

Thank you so much @Dangku for this work, I own a Banana Pi m5, and my problem is I need to launch my python app without sudo, for various reasons I have really no choice but to launch as a normal user.

But WiringPi tells me this :

wiringPiSetupAml: Must be root. (Did you forget sudo?)

My user is in gpio and sudo groups.

I tried adding my user to gpio group, but this doesn't help. I installed this way :

sudo apt-get install build-essential python3 python3-pip python3-dev python3-setuptools
git clone --recursive  https://github.com/Dangku/WiringPi-Python.git
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
venv/bin/pip3 install git+https://github.com/Dangku/RPi.GPIO.git
venv/bin/pip3 install WiringPi-Python/dist/wiringpi-3.6-cp311-cp311-linux_aarch64.whl
./venv/bin/python3 main.py
pygame-ce 2.5.6 (SDL 2.32.10, Python 3.11.2)
wiringPiSetupAml: Must be root. (Did you forget sudo?)

/dev/mem cannot be accessed by normal users

You can try using python3-libgpiod, python3-periphery, or Adafruit_Blinka
