Plugin is not seen in Hardware list

[Aandegrens]

Hi,
this is my first plugin I wanted to add to Domoticz so that it is available in the hardware dropdown list.
I'm running Domoticz on a Windows 11 pc.
I want to add the Husqvarna plugin (https://github.com/FilipDem/Domoticz-Hu ... wer-plugin), so I created a subfolder in the Domoticz folder named plugins and within that a subfolder Husqvarna.
I added all the files and restarted Domoticz.

But I don't see the plugin in the hardware dropdown list.
What am I doing wrong?
I do already have Python running on this pc and a script whicht extracts all the data from oyr heatpump, so Python is working.

What steps did I miss?

Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks,
Frank

I guess you need to install git for windows (https://git-scm.com/download/win) just click, next next next next next next install, then launch git bash and then go into the \domoticz\plugin\ folder and do

Code: Select all

git clone https://github.com/FilipDem/Domoticz-Husqvarna-Automower-plugin.git 

Then it wil make a folder and files for you. Hope this helps. It is GIT Bash you want to open. After restart domoticz.

Did you restart Domoticz?
Do you have python entries in the log about python?
You should see something like:
PluginSystem: Started, Python version '3.x.y'

Hi,

@Waltervl: I did not see this message in the log. So I uninstalled Python completely and reinstalled it. Now it is working.
@Thuis: I did not know this step. After I solved the suggestion of Walter I did your step and now Husqvarna is showing in the Hardware.

Next issue is it can be added, but does not show any devices.
But I'm a bit further on the road to succes.

Thanks guys.

At the setting page you need to ALLOW hardware.
But nice you got some steps further, i know its going to work eventually.

It is working now. I updated from 2022.1 to 2024.6 and that did the trick.

Couldn't have done it without your help. Thanks a lot.
