Python Plugin: Python Plugin Manager

[remb0]

some ideas:
add a short info message on https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Plugins
and maybe a column if plugin is installable from PP-manager?

pp manager default in domoticz? (would help lots of users searching for plugins etc.)

categories for plugins? hardware / web services because the list will grow fast and with categories (maybe an extra metadata of the plugins) the dropdown will be shorter.

maybe a screenshot for the plugins? if the plugin has a folder: screenshots ?

what if a plugin is installed already? can it be updated from the manager?

is there an install log of the prerequisites of a plugin?


one problem:
When I enable pp manager my domoticz goes down. and when restarting I can't disable the plugin: problem adding hardware.

I've change from 3.5.3 to different Python version (3.4.4) and now everything works fine.

Can you reply the commands for other users? (like me )

I would try to contact dnpwwo. A "repository" like approach would be more preferable.
Note that this plugin currently works only on Debian based systems (Linux, raspberry)

Currently, plugin framework does not allow plugin configuration from within the plugin code.

If plugin was installed from GitHub with git command (not just a zip download) can be managed.

is there an install log of the prerequisites of a plugin?
this is an information that can be provided from plugin creators just like the installation scripts for those prerequisites.

Well, there are two ways, sophisticated by "update-alternatives" or easy by "remove" . First one didn't work for me, so I give You second one .
1. first, check what's on Your system

Code: Select all

compgen -c python

2. if You have 3.4 already move to 4.
if dont...
3.

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install python3.4

4.

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get remove python3.5
sudo apt-get autoremove
sudo reboot

Thats it

I had the same problems that python did not start (sometimes)
I followed your procedure

Code: Select all

i@raspberrypi:~ $ compgen -c python
python3.5
python2
python3.4
python3.4m
python-config
python3
python
python2.7-config
python2.7
python3.5m
python2-config
python3m

Code: Select all

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo apt-get remove python3.5
Pakketlijsten worden ingelezen... Klaar
Boom van vereisten wordt opgebouwd
De statusinformatie wordt gelezen... Klaar
Pakket 'python3.5' is niet geïnstalleerd, en wordt dus niet verwijderd
U kunt 'apt --fix-broken install' uitvoeren om dit op te lossen.
De volgende pakketten hebben niet-voldane vereisten:
 alacarte : Vereisten: gnome-menus (>= 3.5.3) maar het zal niet geïnstalleerd worden
 python-minecraftpi : Vereisten: minecraft-pi maar het zal niet geïnstalleerd worden
E: Er zijn niet-voldane vereisten. U kunt best 'apt --fix-broken install' uitvoeren zonder pakketten op te geven, (of u kunt zelf een oplossing specificeren).

also did a
apt --fix-broken install

python 3.5 still remains!

Code: Select all

sudo update-alternatives --config python
  Keuze        Pad                 Prioriteit Status
------------------------------------------------------------
  0            /usr/bin/python3.5   3         automatische modus
  1            /usr/bin/python2.7   2         handmatige modus
* 2            /usr/bin/python3     1         handmatige modus
  3            /usr/bin/python3.5   3         handmatige modus
  
  python --version                                             
  Python 3.5.3

Solved my problem, i can select 3.4 and python works now
Anyone an idea why
-EnableEventScriptSystem value has become 0 (off). It was 1 (ON) and after playing with weatherunderground and detect hardware devices python stopped and this value became 0
- i cant remove python 3.5 (see previous post)

solution:

Code: Select all

sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/python python /usr/bin/python3.4 4   (4 is variable)

and then 

sudo update-alternatives --config python
and choose option 4(variable)

Also python is working again after updating EnableEventScriptSystem to 1

rowid	Key	nValue	sValue
139	EnableEventScriptSystem	1

Hello again.

New version is here. You have nothing to do. You will get new version on next domoticz restart or plugin "Update".
v.1.4.10

Added: Xiaomi PM2.5 Sensor
Added: Sony Bravia TV (with Kodi remote)
Changed: Selected (NotifyOnly) is now the default option for auto update

some ideas:
add a short info message on https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Plugins
and maybe a column if plugin is installable from PP-manager?

@remb0: Adopted your idea. Thanks

As for making this plugin default on domoticz, am trying first to make it play under Windows or only if Detect Linux .

Thank you for your help

Great Job! TYVM!
https://github.com/kofec/domoticz-AirPurifier maybe next?

[DeBaat]

Wow!
Wonderful idea.

Was looking in how to add Sonos plugin but was holding back because I wasn't that confident accessing the bare system.
I do have some good experience with managing plugins for WordPress. Might find some ideas there?

Keep up the good work!

Your first post to this forum and looks like spam advertising!!
Maybe you should use some code tags in order to make your post readable!!

Seems that the are problems with some plugins, raspberry and python 3.5.

Two questions:
- you are pressing "Update" after selecting "Miflora mate xiaomi robot or pm2.5", correct?
- can you post me the results of the following commands?

python --version
and
python3 --version

[ycahome]

v.1.4.18 is here:

Added: Meteo Alarm EU RSS Reader
Added: Mikrotik RouterOS
Added: Moon Phases


Help me include your plugins (on GitHub) by requesting changes on GitHub.

[florisi]

just downloaded pp-manager in the plugins directory.
rebooted my raspberry but nothing appears.
running Domoticz v3.9014 (latest beta) on pi3

[ycahome]

make sure that you have python installed

[florisi]

here is my output about python:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install python3

python3 is already the newest version (3.5.3-1).

pi@domotica:~ $ python --version
Python 2.7.13

Any hints?

[ycahome]

are you sure that you don't see "Python plugin manager" on plugin list?

Any log entries?

[florisi]

Absolutely sure, no python plugin manager in the list.
Which logfile would u like to see?
