Chip has no attribute 'OPEN_BY_NAME' - Orange Pi Zero

[jon-daemon]

Orange Pi Zero Armbian Python 3.9.0 in irtual environment

I use a gpio pin on my board which works fine with this config:

mqtt:
  host: localhost
  port: 1883
  user: ***
  password: ***
  topic_prefix: home
  ha_discovery:
    enabled: yes

# GPIO
gpio_modules:
  - name: opi
    module: orangepi
    mode: board

I want to add a ADS1015. I'm not sure if the config is correct but I have added these lines:

sensor_modules:
  - name: adc_sensor
    module: ads1x15
    type: ADS1015
    pins: [0]

sensor_inputs:
  - name: ups_batt_voltage
    module: adc_sensor

I installed libgpiod2 python3-libgpiod and in the virtual environment I installed gpiod with pip3 install gpiod

When I start mqtt-io I get this error:

AttributeError: type object 'Chip' has no attribute 'OPEN_BY_NAME'

Where am I missing?

I fixed my config using the example here, so my config is now this:

sensor_modules:
  - name: ads
    module: ads1x15
    type: ADS1015
    pins:
      - 0
      - 1
    chip_addr: 0x48

sensor_inputs:
  - name: voltage_a0
    module: ads
    type: voltage
    pin: 0
    interval: 120
    digits: 2

  - name: voltage_a1
    module: ads
    type: voltage
    pin: 1
    interval: 120
    digits: 2

I checked the code at the bottom here and I discovered that I cannot run the blinkatest.py example in my virtual environment. I get a permissions issue on these two lines:

import board
import digitalio

This code runs outside of my virtual environment but only if I use sudo.

So I reinstalled mqtt-io with sudo and tried to run with: sudo python3 -m mqtt_io mqttio/config.yml but I get this:

/usr/local/lib/python3.9/dist-packages/mqtt_io/modules/gpio/orangepi.py:63: UserWarning: Pull up/down setting are not (yet) fully supported, continuing anyway. Use GPIO.setwarnings(False) to disable warnings.

What's the correct way to install and run? What am I doing wrong?

I found that it was a permissions issue and I describe here the fix.
