still active?

Hello.

This seems like a pretty cool project. However, it seems that all the code is python 2.7 and some of the python bindings have changed. e.g. import gobject is nowfrom gi.repository import GObject as gobject

Is there any project like this that is "up to date" with current versions of python? Or is there a fork somewhere of phony where everything is python 3 and up to speed?

Or if there exists a dockerfile where this project is working. That would be awesome

These are good questions.

No, there hasn't been development on this project in a long time. On the python 3 front, there is a branch, which is about a year old now which moves phony to python3, although as you've discovered, dependencies have since shifted and require attention.

If you or anyone is interested in getting this project into a usable state, I'd gladly accept PRs or lend a hand where possible. Your suggestion of a docker file or image is an interesting idea. Most of the complexity is (or was at the time I wrote this) involved with configuring all of the necessary services to get a system up and running.

@mutac thank you for the reply.

I face the same issues as you probably had at the time, hence why a dockerfile is a good idea. It seems like a dockerfile would need to mount at least the dbus (-v /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket:/var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket) however, how much is needed to get a docker up and running is still unknown to me.

all i'm really interested in is getting HFP to work on my laptop, do you know of any easy way to get started with this in 2022? It does not have to be python since i guess most bluetooth work is done on embedded, so c++ projects or the like is fine as well.
