wifi-connect python version #289

rbaynes commented 5 years ago

Hello balena.io team, I needed to make some changes to your app (support hidden wifis), but I got stuck getting my fork to cross compile rust for my raspberry pi zero and CM.

All my lab's development is in python 3.6.8, so I wrote a version of your rust wifi-connect in python. I'm submitting this issue to let you know and ask you to review it for anything you find wrong or incorrect. I used two of your images from this project, but attributed my project to yours, so I hope that is OK.

Thanks for all the great work, I love the balena cloud!

why python3.6 and not just lastest Python?

rbaynes commented 5 years ago

@nagualcode because my entire stack depends on 3.6.8 for static type checking using mypy and we also deploy our backend services (also py 3.6.8) on the google cloud as app engine services. When our dependencies are all happy with the latest 3.7 (or whatever) then we'll upgrade everything.

We should add a README link to the Python project, so that it is more visible.
