Error while installing "geckolib==0.4.7"

[thomasklein1975]

HI,
while installing "sudo pip install geckolib==0.4.7" I got this logs:

Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip-install-duXQyB/geckolib/`

What must be done to fix issue?

Thx in advance

Hi
it looks like you are using python 2.7

File "/tmp/pip-build-env-VC7M6X/lib/python2.7/site-packages/setuptools/init.py", line 162, in setup

Python 3 is needed as minimum. I guess the error is coming from this.

Best
Frank

[thomasklein1975]

thx for very fast response. I think I have 3.7.3

pi@raspberrypi-iob:~/spa $ python3 --version Python 3.7.3

[kalinrow]

Right, but it seems that version two is still the main one.
Please test with
python --version

If you do not want to check you need to use
sudo pip3 install geckolib==0.4.7

Maybe you need to re-install all modules. I'm not a python expert add all. I did the client only in python as the geckolib is only available in python as well.

[thomasklein1975]

hi,

seems we both are right. :-)

pi@raspberrypi-iob:~ $ python --version Python 2.7.16

This I run too:

sudo pip3 install geckolib==0.4.7

Maybe I can proceed with testing your code

[thomasklein1975]

Hi,

where do i get infos about "SPA_IDENTIFIER"
how can I deactive authorisation on mqtt broke in case of no nedd for it?

thx in advance
Thomas

[kalinrow]

Hi,
the SPA identifier is the MAC address with the prefix SPA. See also README file. To get the MAC, lookup in the DHCP server or use the inTouch App.
Regarding the authentication, only guessing but setting the two related variables to None without quotes should do the trick:

BROKER_USERNAME = None
BROKER_PASSWORD = None

[thomasklein1975]

thx a lot again.

Now I have these issue:

There is no log file in var/log. DebugLEvel was set befor to "DEBUG", python 3 seems to be used.

What is the meaning of BROKER_ID?

Here my config:

This is working so far :-)
https://github.com/gazoodle/geckolib I can controll my spa in gecko/python shell. but i want to control my spa by my iobroker

Update:

maybe related to this?

pi@raspberrypi-iob:~/spa/geckoclient/src $ sudo pip3 install asyncio-paho
Looking in indexes: https://pypi.org/simple, https://www.piwheels.org/simple
Collecting asyncio-paho
 Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement asyncio-paho (from versions: )
No matching distribution found for asyncio-paho
pi@raspberrypi-iob:~/spa/geckoclient/src $

What can I do?

[kalinrow]

Hello,
as described in the README you need to copy or rename the config.py_template to config.py.
Please also remove the quotes around None - it is not the string we need, but the not set variable.
Regarding the installation asyncio-paho issue I can't help. For me your command worked well and I could install the package. Maybe a network issue?
Hope that helps.

[thomasklein1975]

thx a lot again, sorry to bother you. i should better read readme.
maybe lib issue is related to my python version. as i read it needs python >= 3.8

happy new year!

[kalinrow]

Hi Thomas,
no worries. We all don't like to read documentation ;)
You assumption about the python version seems to be right. asyncio-paho needs at least Python 3.8. I have added this information in the README as well.
Please also update to 0.5.2. There is a bug in 0.5.1 preventing the script to run for more than 10 seconds.You need also to update the config.py and remove the quotes around 10 for BROKER_INTERVAL variable. Correct line shoudl look like:
BROKER_INTERVAL = 10

[thomasklein1975]

Hi Frank,

thx agains for hints. Updated to newest version 0.5.2.

After updating to python 3.10 still issue to install needed mqtt lib :-(

Hope I will soon get it right.

[kalinrow]

Hi Thomas,
that is strange. Unluckily I do not have a glue on how to solve this. That is my only Python project (I normally work with Java) :-(
Maybe you seek for help in python/pip forums?
I keep fingers crossed, that you will be able to solve it quickly.

[thomasklein1975]

I did it with "sudo pip3.10 install ..." :-)

[kalinrow]

Ah - that makes sense. I guess with sudo pip3 only the lower version had been taken and not 3.10.
Maybe you should consider to remove the lower 3.x versions.
