Domoticz

Is this a raspberry pi error or an error with Bluetooth?

Do I have to install the app to initiate the sensors? Above was written, that the sensors would work without the app..

Best regards

I have problems including my flower sensor into domoticz.

I followed the wiki article (with no result of this part, because it did not find the folder:

If all goes well, one last thing is to copy the Gatt tool to the directory where your linux version keeps its programs. It's location is different for different Linux flavours. Try:

sudo cp attrib/gatttool /usr/local/bin/ or sudo cp attrib/gatttool /usr/bin/

I found my flower sensor, and tried the demo.py, with the following result:

Code: Select all

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "demo.py", line 6, in <module>
    print("Temperature: {}°C".format(poller.parameter_value("temperature")))
  File "/home/pi/domoticz/scripts/miflora/miflora/miflora_poller.py", line 256, in parameter_value
    self._mac)
OSError: [Errno Could not read data from Mi Flora sensor %s] C4:7C:8D:62:7C:CE

Does anybody have a clue?

Thank you in advance and thanks for the work!

So my MiFloras are working flawlesly on my RPi3. So today I wanted to move the sensor polling on my RPi2, where is also Domoticz. I instlled the BlueZ and I can find the sensor with BT LE scan, but when I tried to run the demo script, I got this:

Code: Select all

pi@raspberrypi ~/miflora $ sudo python3 demo.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "demo.py", line 4, in <module>
    from miflora.miflora_poller import MiFloraPoller, \
  File "/home/pi/miflora/miflora/miflora_poller.py", line 12, in <module>
    from subprocess import PIPE, Popen, TimeoutExpired
ImportError: cannot import name TimeoutExpired

I tried everything, followed several tutorialsa and installed all mentioned dependencies etc.
Still can't figure out what is going on...

Any idea?

Have you compiled everything according to the wiki?

We are working at an project in Africa, to use the Xiaomi Mi Flora sensors, to save water and to have the optimal production.
To keep at as Simple As Possible (KISS), we like to use an Android tablet or an small laptop.

Goal is to have the data on those, and to store the historical data.

Who like to help us?

By myself, based in the Netherlands, and visit every two months Zambia, and regular Tanzania/Ethiopia etc.

But when running the domesticz.py script, I have the following errors:

Somebody knows what this means?

physiker123 wrote:Yes. That means, that there is an Ascii incompatible character. I deleted the °C and so on from the print section in the script, and then at least the script runs. But still, crontab does not work for me.

This runs the script every minute, you may want to change that.

Great

Nice, it runs every minute, i thought u asked for it to run every minute just change */1 to */10 and it runs every 10minute

physiker123 wrote:Yes I asked to run it every minute, but your path to my script included a /python/, which was to much and prevended it from working

Now I changed it to run every 6 hours, that should be enough.

so this is my new script:

Code: Select all

# Edit this file to introduce tasks to be run by cron.
# 
# Each task to run has to be defined through a single line
# indicating with different fields when the task will be run
