Can't run on Mac OS X

[pkempe]

Building and installing and works on Mac OS X 10.9, but when trying to invoke the example script td_list_controllers I get the following output:

patrik@iceman:/Volumes/home/tellcore-py-master/bin$ python td_list_controllers 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "td_list_controllers", line 8, in <module>
    core = td.TelldusCore()
  File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/tellcore/telldus.py", line 57, in __init__
    self.lib = Library()
  File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/tellcore/library.py", line 305, in __init__
    lib = DllLoader.LoadLibrary(name)
  File     "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/ctypes/__init__.py", line 443, in LoadLibrary
    return self._dlltype(name)
  File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/ctypes/__init__.py", line 365, in __init__
    self._handle = _dlopen(self._name, mode)
OSError: dlopen(libtelldus-core.so.2, 6): image not found

I have TelldusCenter 2.1.2beta installed, and can run tdtool just fine.

Can you try changing the line "core = td.TelldusCore()" in td_list_controllers.py to core = td.TelldusCore('TelldusCore')

If that doesn't work, try this instead: core = td.TelldusCore('/Library/Frameworks/TelldusCore.framework/TelldusCore')

[pkempe]

The first one makes no difference, but the latter gets around the dlopen errors at least. The script runs a bit farther, but there's another error coming:

patrik@iceman:/Volumes/home/tellcore-py-master/bin$ python td_list_controllers 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "td_list_controllers", line 25, in <module>
    TYPES[controller.type], controller.name, controller.serial,
  File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/tellcore/telldus.py", line 349, in __getattr__
    raise AttributeError(name)
AttributeError: name

[pkempe]

As a side note, changing the corresponding lines in td_sensors and td_event_tracer makes them work without errors.

[erijo]

Thanks for testing.

I will update the code to use that library on mac os x by default. Then I will fix the script to handle controllers without a name set.

[erijo]

Could you please also test if it works with /TelldusCore.framework/TelldusCore ?

[pkempe]

Tried swapping line

core = td.TelldusCore('/Library/Frameworks/TelldusCore.framework/TelldusCore')

for

core = td.TelldusCore('/TelldusCore.framework/TelldusCore')

with the following results:

patrik@iceman:/Volumes/home/tellcore-py-master/bin$ python td_event_tracer 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "td_event_tracer", line 93, in <module>
    core = td.TelldusCore('/TelldusCore.framework/TelldusCore')
  File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/tellcore/telldus.py", line 55, in __init__
    self.lib = Library(library_path)
  File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/tellcore/library.py", line 305, in __init__
    lib = DllLoader.LoadLibrary(name)
  File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/ctypes/__init__.py", line 443 in LoadLibrary
    return self._dlltype(name)
  File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/ctypes/__init__.py", line 365, in __init__
    self._handle = _dlopen(self._name, mode)
OSError: dlopen(/TelldusCore.framework/TelldusCore, 6): image not found

[erijo]

Please try pulling the latest changes and see if it works now.

[pkempe]

The framework loading bit still fails (the error message is the same as before):

OSError: dlopen(libtelldus-core.so.2, 6): image not found

but the unnamed controller stuff is OK. After manually changing the line in td_list_controllers to what worked in your previous suggestion (core = td.TelldusCore('/Library/Frameworks/TelldusCore.framework/TelldusCore') I get proper output.

[erijo]

What output does this command give: python -c 'import platform; print platform.system()'

[pkempe]

patrik@iceman:/Volumes/home/tellcore-py/bin$ python -c 'import platform; print platform.system()'
Darwin

[erijo]

What about: python -c 'import tellcore.library; print tellcore.library.LIBRARY_NAME'

[pkempe]

patrik@iceman:/Volumes/home/tellcore-py/bin$ python -c 'import tellcore.library; print tellcore.library.LIBRARY_NAME'
libtelldus-core.so.2

[erijo]

And this: python -c 'import tellcore.library; print tellcore.library'

[pkempe]

patrik@iceman:/Volumes/home/tellcore-py/bin$ python -c 'import tellcore.library; print tellcore.library'
<module 'tellcore.library' from '/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/tellcore/library.pyc'>

[erijo]

What if you run: PYTHONPATH=Volumes/home/tellcore-py python -c 'import tellcore.library; print tellcore.library.LIBRARY_NAME'

[pkempe]

patrik@iceman:/Volumes/home/tellcore-py/bin$ PYTHONPATH=Volumes/home/tellcore-py python -c 'import tellcore.library; print tellcore.library.LIBRARY_NAME'
libtelldus-core.so.2

[erijo]

I missed the first / in PYTHONPATH, it should have been: PYTHONPATH=/Volumes/home/tellcore-py python -c 'import tellcore.library; print tellcore.library.LIBRARY_NAME'

[pkempe]

patrik@iceman:/Volumes/home/tellcore-py/bin$ PYTHONPATH=/Volumes/home/tellcore-py python -c 'import tellcore.library; print tellcore.library.LIBRARY_NAME'
/Library/Frameworks/TelldusCore.framework/TelldusCore

[erijo]

This should work then: PYTHONPATH=/Volumes/home/tellcore-py ./td_list_controllers

Looks like you have an older version installed. Could that be right?

[pkempe]

Ouch, very sorry. I just pulled the latest version from the repo and forgot to build and install. It all works now...

[erijo]

Perfect. Thanks for reporting and testing!

[pkempe]

You're welcome!
