How to use?

[luxlux]

Good to see there is a non windows solution for this data logger.

But how can i use it? I have tried it on mac os 11.2.3. with calling:

python pkdl_a1.py

but i got Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/lutz/Documents/Parkside Datalogger - pkdl-a1-master/pkdl_a1.py", line 5, in <module> import serial ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'serial'

so i tried python -m pip install serial

This was installed:

Successfully installed future-0.18.3 iso8601-2.1.0 pyyaml-6.0.1 serial-0.0.97

But if i try to start it now i get:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/lutz/Documents/Parkside Datalogger - pkdl-a1-master/pkdl_a1.py", line 90, in <module>
    sys.exit(main())
  File "/Users/lutz/Documents/Parkside Datalogger - pkdl-a1-master/pkdl_a1.py", line 78, in main
    ser = serial.Serial(args.device)
AttributeError: module 'serial' has no attribute 'Serial'

if i ask which python i get: /Users/lutz/opt/miniconda3/bin/python

So how can i install the needed module? Or simply how can i run your tool?

Now i tried it with python -m pip install pyserial==3.5 to install pyserial from your file requirements.txt now it worked! now i can set a correct date, which was even not possible with original windows software.

thanks :)
