Symptoms for "Sometimes the necessary lib [...] is not correctly installed" #56

Closed bcutter closed 2 months ago

This is not a bug report. It's a question pointing at

Note: Sometimes the necessary lib (https://github.com/suaveolent/hoymiles-wifi) is not correctly installed. In this case you need to manually install the library by running the pip install hoymiles-wifi command yourself.

How do I know if this is the case?

Background: I plan to buy an inverter supported by this integration. Before doing so, want to make 100 % sure everythink will work on HA side. For this I installed the integration. Now, even prior to restarting HA, when adding the integration, the config flow comes up with:

grafik

...which looks quite good I think.

So: green light or what are the specific symptoms indicating "the necessary lib (https://github.com/suaveolent/hoymiles-wifi) is not correctly installed" ?

That looks good. Otherwise you would get an error even before the config screen is shown.

OK thanks. Because the original question afterwards would have been how to fix, because the mentioned command is nothing HA OS users can use.
