Dependency on python-qt #22

Closed fmina closed 9 years ago

fmina commented 9 years ago

Hi, When we start to discover the master on remote host we get python error stating that the python-qt-buinding module is not existing. However we have limited storage on the robot and we want to avoid installing python-qt. Is the dependency on python-qt necessary even on the robot? We tried to start only master-discovery on the robot and the node_manager discovered the robot, but same issue happens when we start a node for instance.

Thank you

Hi, to run nodes on remote hosts from node_manager we use scripts in scripts folder of node_manager package. These scripts use the code of node_manager to simplify the maintenance. It is possible to extract the code, so it does not need the python-qt. I will try to create this script, but next week. Regards

hi, I created a backup script, which works without qt bindings. It was not a lot of changes :-) Try it out, it is in master branch.
