gpionext config doesn't detect gpio inputs #82

Closed xScotty closed 6 months ago

xScotty commented 1 year ago

Hello, I have a setup with 4 push buttons connected to the gpio of my rpi zero W. I am able to retrieve the inputs with the RPi.GPIO python library and everything seems to work fine.

I installed gpionext by cloning the repo and running bash GPIOnext/install.sh. When I run gpionext config and try to configure a controller, I'm stuck at the Hold button step and gpionext seems to not detect the inputs from my push buttons even after restarting gpionext or rebooting my pi.

I'm also having this issue. Raspberry Pi 5 Bookworm.

@DirectorOMR, as you noted in issue #88 , The Raspberry pi 5 is not supported by the RPi.GPIO library. Whenever I can get my hands on one, I'll look into updating to a new library.

@ThatOneGuy140 & @xScotty - have you found a solution to your problem? I have run it on both a raspberry pi zero W & zero 2 with no problems. The only thing that I can think of is if perhaps you tested the RPi.GPIO library using PULLDOWN (and are wired thusly). If that's the case, you can tell gpionext to use pulldown resistors with the command gpionext set pulldown true
