Hi. Am a noob in this. But i have an raspberrypi 4 4gb. and a new envoy. How do i install the driver/is it possible to install driver on a raspberry pi? The Venos os is running on a raspberry.

Kind regards Flexizon

Hi, I'm also stuck. I was able to install all drivers, but then I get the error

INFO:dbus-envoy:Driver start
INFO:dbus-envoy:http server listening on port 8000
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/data/dbus-envoy/dbus-envoy.py", line 340, in <module>
    main()
  File "/data/dbus-envoy/dbus-envoy.py", line 321, in main
    _mainloop = gobject.MainLoop()
AttributeError: module 'gobject' has no attribute 'MainLoop'

I installed the drivers with this commands:

opkg update && opkg install python3-pip
python -m pip install Gauge gobject glib

I'm pretty sure python3 isn't yet tested with this repo. It has been awhile since I've worked on it. It probably needs to be updated to the latest VenusOS and Python3.

I tried to migrate the script to Python 3.x, by try and error but one issue is left. See pull request https://github.com/jaedog/EnvoyVenusDriver/pull/2. Unfortunately this is my first time scripting in Python.

root@raspberrypi4:~# /data/etc/dbus-envoy/dbus-envoy.py

    import mmap
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'mmap'

To get it to work I had to comment out import mmap in /usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/prometheus_client/mmap_dict.py, which is obviously not the right way. I was not able to install mmap. Maybe you know hot to fix it properly?

If someone is interrested: I created a new package for the Enphase Envoy-S with MQTT. It integrates the PV and grid.
