AG requires a terminal to run

[totoetlititi]

AG requires terminal capabilities to display some infos and progress bars. When python scripts run in an other app (like Lua), without a terminal, the script displays this error: "Terminal isn't capable enough -- you should use a simpler progress dispaly."

 File "/home/we/dust/code/audioguide_test/lib/audioguide-1.75/agSegmentSf.py", line 56, in <module>
ag.initialize_analysis_interface()
File "/home/we/dust/code/audioguide_test/lib/audioguide-1.75/audioguide/__init__.py", line 76, in initialize_analysis_interface
self.p = userinterface.printer(self.ops.VERBOSITY, os.path.dirname(__file__), self.ops.get_outputfile('HTML_LOG_FILEPATH'))
File "/home/we/dust/code/audioguide_test/lib/audioguide-1.75/audioguide/userinterface.py", line 180, in __init__
raise ValueError("Terminal isn't capable enough -- you should use a simpler progress dispaly.")
ValueError: Terminal isn't capable enough -- you should use a simpler progress dispaly.

Even with VERBOSITY set to 0, AG shows this error. Is there a way to disable any verbosity, and not need a terminal anymore ?

All the best, _TG

Hi Thomas! Could you trying commenting out these lines of the code and see if this fixes the issue?

Thanks Ben ! But I had to go deeper in userinterface.py. The main problem seems to be the curses.setupterm() which can not be run successfully on Norns. But after some modification, it works ! Following the changes in the userinterface.py file (diff between the original and mine):

<         try: curses.setupterm()
<         except: return
---
>         # try: curses.setupterm() # _TG
>         # except: return # _TG

<         self.COLS = curses.tigetnum('cols')
<         self.LINES = curses.tigetnum('lines')
---

>         # self.LINES = curses.tigetnum('lines') # _TG

<         cap = curses.tigetstr(cap_name) or ''
---

>         cap = ''

---

>         # output = output.decode(enc) # _TG

OK. I think that I may have figured out a simpler way to do this. Just pushed the fix to userinterface.py. I'd appreciate it if you could test it so I can close this ticket ! Cheers, Ben
