No action at all since rpi upgrade to 'bullseye'

[PatriceRobert]

This plugin was working just fine up to an upgrade of the raspberry pi to 'bullseye' version: Linux raspberrypi 5.15.56-v7l+ #1575 SMP Fri Jul 22 20:29:46 BST 2022 armv7l GNU/Linux Now the plugin loads correctly, as before but nothing happens via homekit. Tried the 'homebridge-magichome-dynamic-platform' plugin and it can control the lights but has less options than this current one (scenes: presetSwitches).

Dear all,

I think the issue has been found, in fact the file homebridge-magichome-platform/src/flux_led.py is using the latest python defined on the system (so python3 in my case) but the code is not compatible:

$ python3 flux_led.py 
  File "/home/magic/npm/node_modules/homebridge-magichome-platform/src/flux_led.py", line 124
    print ''.join('{:02x} '.format(x) for x in bytearray(bytes))
          ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
$ 

With python2:

$ python2 flux_led.py 
Usage: usage: flux_led.py [-sS10cwpCiltThe] [addr1 [addr2 [addr3] ...].
$ 

flux_led.py: error: An operation must be specified

So changed the header of the file to use: #!/usr/bin/python2 and it is now working fine back !!!!

How do you do that from homebridge? I can't seem to find the files

Well, without python2 on your system, you may also want to 're-write' all the print functions in this flux_led.py file: print "response too short!" becomes print("response too short!")

I managed to find the file, but Im unsure how too rename the header, as Im using SSH connection to access my pi and doubt I could open the file from here?

Looks good, just replace the file by the one sent in a post earlier (remove the .txt of course....)

Im not sure if Im doing it correct as Im new to this, but -I downloaded your file, -the path seems to be correct, -the file don't have the .txt anymore -the ssh connection is on

and I get this error when Im trying to replace

That's just because you shall use an scp tool from your windows to transfer the file, something like WinSCP or putty

[CsabaVK]

I tried with PuTTY gave me the same error :(

[PatriceRobert]

Try to launch: curl -sL https://github.com/sahilchaddha/homebridge-magichome-platform/files/12706444/flux_led.py.txt > flux_led.py from the home dir of user pi through your ssh session, the file should be written in your home dir.

[CsabaVK]

I just did that, and it give the same error as in your first post, I downloaded the file from the link inside the command to check, and in the header it says

#!/usr/bin/env python instead of #!/usr/bin/python2

Could that be the problem?

[CsabaVK]

Thank you for the help, I figured out the rest, So I had to put this pscp c:\Users\csaba\Desktop\flux_led.py [email protected]:/var/lib/homebridge/node_modules/homebridge-magichome-platform/src/flux_led.py into the windows shell while I have the connection open on PuTTY

but it works!
