OmegaExpansion for Python3
-
@Michael-Klug I did just publish one I created over the last couple days. I am no programmer, so there are probably better ways of doing this or what not, but for a first attempt, at least it works. I used Python 3.
GPS Info to OLED via Python on Hackster.io

@Brad-Buskey please excuse my stupid question but you will have my eternal thanks and a free beer should we ever meet in reality:
How did you install OmegaExpansion for python3.6, I was not able to find this.
-
The Python mods (and others) needed are the following
opkg update
opkg install pyOledExp pyOmegaExpansion oled-exp ogps
-
did some research, there is no OmegaExpansion for python3, it's not yet built. Your GPS script is using python2. Nevertheless many thanks for your effort!

The only Python I have installed is Python 3. What I have installed, works as it is shown on that project.
I have what I listed installed, and it is working as shown.
-
@Brad-Buskey strange, will try to replicate on my second Omega2. Thanks for your input!
-
@Michael-Klug I hope you get it. I was going nuts getting the GPS to show on the OLED.
-
@Michael-Klug I was just about to link you to my thread https://community.onion.io/topic/1223/no-oled-library-for-python3
But I see that you already found it.

@jorgegarciadev i will try a fresh install with a new Omega2 image using only python3 and pyOmegaExpansion with --nodeps option. In the meantime i solved the problem temporarily by calling the bash skript with the subprocess module. this works suprisingly well.

@Brad-Buskey I know this is an incredibly late reply, but I looked at your Hackster project and saw that you installed python3 and python-light. python-light simply installs a "light" version of Python 2 (less packages). Did you run your Python-scripts with "python <filename>" instead of with "python3 <filename>"? Because that would explain why the packages worked for you!
-
@L-G Yes, the .sh script does call "python /root/script.py"
