Lightbus currently doesn't work on Windows. Lightbus currently shows the following error on Windows, although the full depth of the compatibility issues are not yet known:

Python ImportError: No module named resource
The resource module is not not compatible on windows

It has been a long long time since I development anything on Windows, so this is an issue I would definitely appreciate someone picking up and taking a look at.

Next steps

I suggest proceeding as follows:

Firstly, have a hack around to try to get Lightbus working on Windows. Doesn't need to be pretty, the point is to try and discover the details of any/all incompatibilities which need to be fixed.
Post the necessary changes here
I'll look over the problems, we can chat about it and find a way forwards
Produce a more finessed pull request ready for merge (I can probably help with this part if needs be)

I have fixed the immediate obvious Windows compatibility issue in the above commit. If someone with a working Windows dev environment could confirm if this fix was successful I'd be very grateful.

Hi @sylvoslee,

I received a notification from you on this issue saying this was fixed, but I cannot see a comment on the actual issue itself. Can you just confirm - is this ok now? Thanks!
