GPIO python library

[ellecieffe]

Hi . I have downloaded the library (now 0.1.10 instead of 0.1.7) from the link https://github.com/OLIMEX/OLINUXINO/tree/master/SOFTWARE/A13/PYTHON-A13-GPIO as described at http://olimex.wordpress.com/2013/03/08/a13-olinuxino-gpio-python-libraries/

then I have typed

Code Select Expand

tar -zxvf pyA13-0.1.10.tar.gz
and then

Code Select Expand

cd pyA13-0.1.10
(and not  cd pyA13-0.1.10.tar.gz . is there an error on the code, right? )

then

Code Select Expand

sudo python setup.py install

and the output is

Code Select Expand

running install
running build
running build_py
running build_ext
building 'A13_GPIO' extension
error: unknown file type '.h' (from 'source/gpio_lib.h')

when i type

Code Select Expand

import A13_GPIO as GPIO

I have

Code Select Expand

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named A13_GPIO

I m working with the R17 release of jwischka.

What's the problem?
thanks

Suspect a bug in the code. Obviously the build of the extension is failing.

Have you tried the (older) version on Olimex's github?

[ellecieffe]

No, I don't find them. I have just commented on the blog post  linking to this thread. I'm waiting for a reply .

Did you read the last post in the thread https://www.olimex.com/forum/index.php?topic=938.15 ?
I would need a "yes or no"

one file was not put in the package. the new version should be ok -> https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pyA13/0.1.12

excellent. I will try it soon.
Thanks to all, i'm learning a lot.  I'm glad I chose Olimex

To anticipate your next problem, you need to have python-dev installed to compile this. I've added this to my image and it will be updated in the next go-around, whenever that is.
