Python Plugin: Broadlink RM2 V3

[zak45]

Guys, I do not know what else to do. I was thrilled with the idea of controlling the broadlink and syncing with Xiaomi cameras and gateways, but exhausted all my test possibilities.

I have already tried to install on 2 computers (Notebook / Desktop), with Windows 10 Pro, both to no avail.

The entire installation was in administrator mode.
After all installation, the HARDWARE / BROADLINK option does not appear.

Installed Items:
- Domoticz 3.8892
- Python-3.4.0
- pycrypto-2.6.1.win32-py3.4
- setup ( broadlink )

Note: in Windows 10 several versions of Python have been tested.
Should I give up, I know the forum discussion is already old. Does anyone still use this Domoticz with broadlink?

Use it every day....
Please go to now:

Does the plugin support the newer Broadlink IHC app?

Hi,
I've got something similar to ChopCZ has been describing in the previous page.
My setup is domoticz v3.8892 on a rasberry pi.
When I add some broadlink hardware to my setup domoticz crashes, and it continues to do so at each service restart until I remove that hardware at startup, before plugins are launched.
The crash is a segmentation fault as far as I can tell : "Error: Domoticz received fatal signal 11 !..."

I opened the broadlink python plugin and commented pretty much everything until I found it crashes when importing broadlink components.
If I comment the import the plugin loads without problem (at least it doesn't crash the all thing).
If I make a random python script outside domoticz I can however import the exact same broadlink library ! I check path so that's not the problem...

How can I tell the domoticz python environment causing the crash ? Does anyone have a clue ? I think I'm almost out of idea myself...

I see 2 last options :
- compiling domoticz with debug option but I'm kinda lazy...
- installing another domoticz version as the plugin run fine for others (any version in particular ?)

Thx

I'm trying to import the Plugins from Broadlink, but I do not know how to do it.

A unica tela que consigo é:

The attachment Learn.png is no longer available

I can connect normally to the Broadlink, however, it does not show this screen: "WebStart" "Generate" "Import" "Reset"

Learn.png (15.47 KiB) Viewed 3555 times

How do I display this screen?

I have the jsonSubIr, jsonButton, jsonIrCode files. But I do not know how to import them into domoticz ..

I can reply to myself : for some reason, it is the import of the random library by the broadlink plugin in "__init__.py" which causes domoticz to crash. It seems that importing that library in a python plugin through domoticz doesn't work and causes segfault.
For now I didn't took time to understand what was the point of the only "random.randrange(0xffff)" I found in the plugin so. I'm gonna need to replace it but at least plugin is loading in domoticz now...

Hi!

First of all excuse my bad english, i do my best.
Im triying to install the plugin in my Raspberry Pi type b without luck. After resolving a couple of problems with th pip installer now i cant continue.
I have installed pyaes, broadlink an Cryptopy and create /home/pi/domoticz/plugins/Broadlink folder and copy in the 4 files from the wiki.
The problem is after restart and trying to add the new hardware but "Broadlink RM2 with Kodi Remote" is not in the list.

Can someone give me a trace to solve this problem. I got no idea what to do now.

My settings.
Now Domoticz V.3.8988

Raspbian Wheezy



Thanks and regards

Hi!

Thank you. I see maybe the Python version. I will try to upgrado to Raspbian Stretch.

Thanx again and regards!

[druss67]

Thanks, for the replies.

So, I have downgraded python to 3.4.4 using these commands :

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get remove python3.5
sudo apt-get autoremove
sudo apt-get install python3.4 libpython3.4 python3.4-dev
python -V

if this is not Python 3.4.4 redo the link with this command :

Code: Select all

sudo ln -s /usr/bin/python3.4 /usr/bin/python

Domoticz do not crashes, this is better

but I have these errors...

2018-03-10 18:36:00.499 Error: (BroadlinkRM2) failed to load 'plugin.py', Python Path used was '/home/pi/domoticz/plugins/BroadlinkRM/:/usr/lib/python3.4/:/usr/lib/python3.4/plat-arm-linux-gnueabihf:/usr/lib/python3.4/lib-dynload'.

The problem was the installation of pip3, if you use this command

Code: Select all

 sudo apt-get install python3-pip

pip is installed and python 3.5 too

Anyway, I have found a solution here https://packaging.python.org/tutorials/ ... n-packages:

If pip isn’t already installed, then first try to bootstrap it from the standard library:

Code: Select all

python -m ensurepip --default-pip

If that still doesn’t allow you to run pip:

Securely Download get-pip.py https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py

Run

Code: Select all

python get-pip.py

. This will install or upgrade pip. Additionally, it will install setuptools and wheel if they’re not installed already.

Warning

Be cautious if you’re using a Python install that’s managed by your operating system or another package manager. get-pip.py does not coordinate with those tools, and may leave your system in an inconsistent state. You can use python get-pip.py --prefix=/usr/local/ to install in /usr/local which is designed for locally-installed software.

Ensure pip, setuptools, and wheel are up to date

While pip alone is sufficient to install from pre-built binary archives, up to date copies of the setuptools and wheel projects are useful to ensure you can also install from source archives:

Code: Select all

python -m pip install --upgrade pip setuptools wheel

Code: Select all

sudo pip3 install broadlink

Code: Select all

sudo pip3 install pycrypto

Code: Select all

sudo service domoticz restart

Works for me should work for you

Hi again!

After make afresh install of Stretch Raspbian and the last beta of Domoticz when y add my Broadlink s3 Domoticz crashed with "segmentation fault".
Removing the /home/pi/domotcz/pluginst/Broadlink and rebooting the pi makes Domotic work again but no way to make it work.

Raspbian Stretch full updated
Domoticz 3.9047
Python 3.5

Any idea?

Thanks for your help.

Hi again!

Thank you for your answer clement99.
Finaly it works in domoticz, or a part at least. The main problem like clement99 says is stable version.
But now i get in the log "2018-03-17 17:26:00.816 Error: (TeleDormitorio) Get Energy error" So i cant see the power consumption.
Someone has solved this problem?.

There is a problem in the version available in pypi. Download the one provided in dropbox : python-broadlink-master-0.6.zip
unzip it, go to the folder and do 'pip install .'
